Comparison vs. Ordinary Site Mix
| Criterion | Ordinary Mix | EuroFix |
|---|---|---|
| UV resistance | Fades and yellows within months | Colour-stable for years |
| Water & rain | Absorbs water and peels | Water-repellent, vapour-permeable |
| Cracking | Brittle, cracks with movement | Flexible, bridges hairline cracks |
| Fungi & algae | Grow quickly in damp | Built-in anti-fungal resistance |
| Repaint cycle | Every 1–2 years on a façade | Many years between repaints |
Consumption & Cost
Although the litre price is slightly above an ordinary interior emulsion, using cheap interior paint outdoors is a losing choice: it fades, cracks and peels within a season or two, forcing a façade repaint every one to two years at high scaffolding and labour cost. EuroFix Weathershield resists UV, rain and alkali, stretching the repaint cycle to many years with no early fading or peeling — so the small price premium disappears against the extra years of protection and the saved cost of repeated refurbishment.
