Ceramic Wall Paint - Low VOC and Improved Durability

Why Ceramic Beads?

So Why Are Ceramic Beads Better?
What makes using ceramic beads better is that since they are smooth and round they pack closer together, and because they do not have an irregular shape, the paint film they create with a high quality 100% acrylic resin is smooth and hard. This all means better hiding power and the ability to scrub the wall without losing its flat finish.

And since the ceramic bead extender pigments pack together tighter, they create a paint film that is not very permeable. And that means odors, dirt, microbes, bacteria and other nasty things have a much harder time finding their way into your newly painted wall.
