Tuff-Coat is a heavy-bodied, ready-to-use, emulsified acrylic architectural wall coating. It damp-proofs and beautifies all exterior and interior masonry surfaces, such as concrete, stucco, brick, and external insulation and finishing systems (EFIS). Tuff-Coat will not peel, chip, blister, or crack when applied on properly prepared surfaces. It hides stains and discolorations, is low fading, and has a washable coating surface. It bridges small, non-moving hairline cracks and masonry imperfections.

Brush, Roller or Spray | Apply the thoroughly mixed material using a marginal trowel, cove base trowel, or other suitable tool at a minimum of 1/8” thick. Do not over-trowel the material as this may cause isolated blisters to form. Use methanol or isopropanol on the trowel for easier application. Maintain temperatures within the recommended ranges during the application and curing process. |
