Spruce up this spring with Rhino Shield and never paint again

Spring is coming and if you
have an exterior painting project
to tackle, it might be time to consider
the question – why paint? In
fact, when the coverage, durability
and energy benefits of Rhino Shield
are considered, the question might
better be, “why paint ever again?”
“Rhino Shield is not paint. It’s
better,” said Darrin Crook, owner
of the Rhino Shield franchise in
Manchester.
Rhino Shield is a durable, flexible,
low maintenance wall coating. It
is an acrylic-urethane formula that not
only covers beautifully but helps to
waterproof, insulate, and soundproof
the structures it covers, and it will cover
almost any kind of structural material.
For example, Rhino Shield will cover,
and actually bonds to aluminum, cedar,
block, brick, Masonite, stucco and
wood, according to the company. The
innovative technology combines multiple
resins with ceramic microspheres
resulting in a flexible but tough surface.
In addition, Rhino Shield contains
additives that provide fire resistance
giving the material a Class A fire and
smoke rating, UV blockers that reduce
wall surface temperature and save
Kirstie, Darrin, Carter and Sandy Crook
money over time on cooling costs and
mildewcides and algeacides to stop mold.
Rhino Shield’s flexibility also allows the
coated surface to expand and contract with
changing temperatures which helps to
eliminate cracking.
One of the most valuable aspects of
Rhino Shield however, is its longevity.
“The Rhino Shield is engineered to outlast
paint five to seven times,” Darrin said.
“It is a permanent ceramic coating that
won’t chip, flake, crack or peel and comes
in many colors. The durable maintenancefree
wall coating has a flexible and tough
surface – so tough, in fact, that it comes
with a 25-year non-prorated transferable
warranty,” Darrin said.
That warranty and the product it guarantees
mean that painting becomes a
thing of the past, costs and time are
reduced and because the covering is
attractive and the warrenty is transferable,
Rhino Shield adds value to your
home should you ever decide to sell it.
Darrin said he is proud to be the only
Rhino Shield dealer in Missouri and
Southern Illinois. The family-owned
business is focused on bringing a better
option than paint to local homeowners.
Rhino Shield has thousands of satisfied
customers locally and tens of thousands
nationally.
“We’ve been here 30 years. We had
Rhino Shield put on the house 14 years
ago. It still looks the same as the first day,
said one woman about her experience with
Rhino Shield. “It sounded wonderful that
we could go ahead and have the house
coated with Rhino Shield and literally not
have to worry about it again for 25 years.
I’m really glad we did it. Rhino Shield
really worked with me to help me get the
color just right – a nice soft yellow. It’s
the same color, and it’s 14 years later. So
it didn’t fade. It didn’t wash out ... There
have been neighbors that have come by
and said, ‘Did you just have your house
painted?’ They wanted to know who the
contractor was, and I said ‘No, it’s actually
Rhino Shield.’”
Applying Rhino Shield is a simple process.
It begins with pressure washing the
surfaces to be covered. Loose paint and
debris are then removed for a clean bondable
surface for the primer. Areas not to be
coated are masked off, covered or temporarily
removed. The primer is then sprayed
onto the surface. Finally, the ceramic top
coat, in the color of your choice, is applied.
Tight spaces are trimmed in. Once the finish
coat has dried, all masking materials and
dropcloths are removed. “Our goal is to
return your surroundings to the same condition
as before we arrived,” Darrin said.
After the area is cleaned up, customers
make a final inspection of the work done.
“We’re not done until you’re completely
satisfied with our work,” Darrin said.

for your home and take advantage of new
technology that covers your home with
beautiful color that lasts decades. Paint a
house. Shield a home!
