Dubai’s weather is not easy on building exteriors. The extreme heat, excessive humidity, and frequent dust storms can prove to be too much for external walls. The right exterior paint is what will get you through these factors. At RAK Paints, we guide you on choosing the best, most durable, and weather-resistant paints that can withstand the worst of your location’s climatic conditions.
- Weather Challenges
Before choosing a paint, the environmental conditions that your building will experience must be taken into account:
Severe Sun & UV Rays: Sun rays can fade the paint, make it crack and peel.
High Moisture: Moisture will cause mold and mildew.
Dust & Sandstorm: Fine dust particles settle on the walls and make them appear dusty and worn out.
- Characteristics of Weather-Resistant Paints
To have exterior paints that will last longer and be durable, look for the following:
UV Protection: Paints with UV-resistant formulas prevent fading and maintain color vibrancy.
Water Resistance: Moisture-repellent paints help prevent mold, mildew, and peeling.
Heat Reflective Technology: Paints with heat-resistant properties reduce surface temperature, enhancing energy efficiency.
Dust & Stain Resistance: Easy-to-clean surfaces help maintain a fresh appearance.
- Best Types of Paint for Exterior Use
Acrylic Exterior Paint: A popular choice for its flexibility, acrylic paint expands and contracts with temperature changes, reducing cracks.
Elastomeric Paint: This thick, rubber-like coating is ideal for extreme weather and has high water resistance and durability.
Silicone-Based Paint: It is highly resistant to moisture and stains, making it perfect for humid environments.
- Tips for Long-Lasting Exterior Paint
Surface Preparation: Do deep cleaning on the walls before applying paint, then add primer for better adhesion.
Choose the right finish: Satin and semi-gloss finishes resist dirt and moisture more efficiently than flat finishes.
Regular Maintenance: Wash walls periodically and inspect for cracks or peeling.
