FAQ
What does it look like?
Rhino Shield looks like paint and lasts like vinyl.
It's a proven 3 coat Architectural Coating System that can be used on virtually any surface,
including stucco, weathered wood and aluminum siding. It is not paint, but a heavy bodied
coating system, that looks exactly like fresh paint. It retains the natural shape and texture of the
material to which it is applied, and dries to about the thickness of a credit card.
How much does it cost?
Less than premium vinyl siding and about 2.5 times that of a professional paint job. We must
inspect the job in person to give a fixed estimate because a lot depends on the prep work
involved.
What surfaces can your coating be applied to?
Almost everything except vinyl siding - as example, Rhino Shield may be applied over wood,
masonite, stucco, brick, block, concrete, masonry and aluminum.
Does this product breathe?
Yes. This product is totally gas permeable and allows water vapor to escape.
What colors does it come in?
Virtually any color! There are dozens of popular standard colors to choose from and we can
also custom tint to whatever shade you wish.
What if I want to change the color?
Color change is as simple as applying a new top coat.
What is the guarantee?
We offer a lifetime residential warranty, non-prorated and transferable.
Can I put it on myself?
No. It must be applied by our trained applicators so that we can offer the lifetime residential
warranty.
Is it toxic?
No. Rhino Shield is environmentally friendly and water based. Rhino Shield contains NO vinyl,
NO latex, NO cheap mineral filler, and has NO VOC’s
Who is the manufacturer?
Amcoat technologies. Acknowledged as the leader in the ceramic coating industry since 1977.
The RhinoShield product line is the benchmark by which all new entrants into the field are
measured. Each product is the result of years of research and has been field tested in the
harshest environments. Each ingredient has been individually tested and certified as the
highest possible grade available.
I have a brick home. What would the advantages be in coating my home?
Coating a brick home gives the opportunity to completely change the look of the home’s
exterior. In addition, all cracks and crevices in the work area are sealed with the adhesive base
coat to help protect your home.
Does it take longer to complete compared to traditional regular paint?
Our applicators are trained to invest considerably more time in the cleaning and preparation
stages of the project than paint contractors. Since this is virtually a permanent finish, it's
imperative that the surface to be coated is properly prepared.
