SmartColor® passes a multitude of these cycles.
- In addition to this extreme testing SmartColor® systems are subjected to extreme exterior exposure testing. After years of exposure to many different environments, this proprietary system remains durable and continues to perform.

General Information
What is SmartColor™?
SmartColor™ may look just like paint, but is actually what is called a high build elastomeric coating. Drying to ten times the thickness of paint, SmartColor™ is durable, flexible, and breathable- protecting your home’s surface from moisture on the outside, but never trapping it underneath.
The best part? We guarantee SmartColor™ for as long as you own or live in your home*. This means that by choosing SmartColor™ once, you will never have to paint your exterior again!

SmartColor is Durable, Breathable and Protective
SmartColor™ does not crack, chip, peel or fade like a typical paint job.
SmartColor forms protective barrier around the surface of your home, drying to about 10 mils thick. This is 8 to 10 times thicker than standard house paint. Though you may not be able to tell when it is on your home, the profile difference is quite noticeable:

Note: Representation drawn to scale. This is not the actual thickness of paint & Smart Color.
SmartColor™ stands strong against the wind-driven rain and snow of the harsh New England climate, keeping out the moisture which could eventually cause severe water damage, mold, and/or mildew to form on your home’s surface. In addition, SmartColor™ is vapor permeable from the inside out, so that despite its protective nature, moisture will not become trapped underneath the coating. In this way, SmartColor™ is like a breathable, weather-resistant jacket for your home.
SmartColor is Beautiful and Versatile
SmartColor™ can be effectively applied to virtually any exterior surface, including wood, stucco, brick, cement, masonite, and vinyl or aluminum siding. The unique textural
characteristics of the material are still visible, while any unsightly cracks or crevices can be bridged with SealSmart™.
SmartColor™ can be applied to railings, columns, trim detail, and other areas that vinyl siding can not cover.
SmartColor™ comes in over 1500 colors, with custom color matching also available.
