Masonry Paint Tester Pots

Here at Painters World we always recommend ordering a tester pot of any chosen paint before you start if you want an accurate colour representation. Tester pots are crucial for gaining the best possible idea of what colour a paint is in practice, as a computer screen can vary wildly meaning colours can often be mispresented.

This is especially important when it comes to masonry paint as this is often used on large projects.

Emperor Paint

We stock sample pots of Emperor Masonry Paint, which is regarded as many as the best masonry paint currently available in the UK. This is because it contains highly advanced super hydrophobic technology that means any water that falls on the painted surface is completely repelled. This is in contrast to standard masonry paints that are acrylic-based, meaning they absorb moisture. By reducing water absorption by 96%, no moisture can get behind the paint film, which is the most common cause of paint failure. Crucially, Emperor Paint is also highly breathable, allowing any water vapour from inside the property to escape the building. If breathability isn't maintained, which is the case with brick sealers, any moisture that gets trapped will lead to damp, paint failure and damage to brickwork.

Emperor Masonry Paint will never peel or flake and has been proven in independent tests to withstand harsh weather conditions for 25 years, although it will far exceed this. This is why Emperor Masonry Paint comes with a lifetime guarantee, meaning if your paint fails, Emperor Paint will replace it free of charge.

The super hydrophobic technology of Emperor Paint doesn't just ensure the paint performs long-term, it also has a range of other benefits. Any dirt particles or green growth cannot attach themselves to the surface. For this reason, Emperor Masonry Paint is self-cleaning, allowing it to stay looking newly painted for years after it has been applied.
