Octamatt Exterior Finish
What Professionals Say About Octamatt
"Octagon's Octamatt exterior wall finish is similar to Basco Paints' Dura Coat when dry, but has a slightly longer drying period."
That longer drying period gives painters more working time on large walls, producing a more even finish.
| Feature | Benefit to You |
|---|---|
| Similar to Basco Dura Coat when dry | Premium-quality finish comparable to a leading brand. |
| Slightly longer drying period | More working time on large exterior walls for a smoother finish. |
| Engineered for Kenyan conditions | Formulated by chemical engineers for sun, rain and temperature swings. |
"Octagon paints are the same quality as Crown Paints but cheaper."
Kenyan Climate
Why Exterior Paint Fails in Kenya
| Challenge | What Happens | Octagon Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Intense UV radiation | Paint fades, chalks and loses colour. | UV-resistant Octamatt formulation. |
| Temperature swings | Expansion and contraction cause cracking. | Flexible formula that moves with walls. |
| Heavy rain and humidity | Blistering, peeling and moisture damage. | Breathable yet water-repellent protection. |
| Dust and pollution | Exteriors look dull quickly. | Hard, washable finish that cleans easily. |
| Poor preparation | New paint fails because the substrate was not ready. | Meticulous preparation. It is 80% of the job. |
