Nu-Guard® SR Masonry is a hydrophobic water-based, decorative, protective exterior masonry coating. It utilises silicone resin technology to provide a superior decorative weather-resistant barrier with a self-cleaning function, improved durability and dirt pick-up resistance, maintaining a cleaner surface for longer.

Due to the hydrophobic nature and non-film forming characteristics of Nu-Guard® SR Masonry it will provide full protection to the masonry substrate even in the harshest of environmental climates.
