Specialty Paints

Purpose-built coatings for unique surfaces and specific challenges.

Some projects call for more than a standard finish coat. Whether you’re applying a historic limewash to brick, sealing lead paint in an older Detroit home, finishing a pool, or solving a specific surface challenge — we carry the specialty coatings built for it. Come in and describe the project. We’ll find the right product.

Romabio® Limewash & Mineral Paint

Authentic Italian mineral paints for interior and exterior masonry, brick, and stucco. Breathable, pH-resistant, and bonding directly to masonry surfaces — the preferred choice for historic restoration, limewash finishes, and any project where a natural, European-inspired aesthetic is the goal. A perfect fit for Detroit’s historic homes in Indian Village, Boston-Edison, and Brush Park.

Lead Block™

An encapsulant coating that seals and stabilizes lead-based paint on interior and exterior surfaces, reducing the risk of lead exposure without the cost and disruption of full removal. An essential solution for Detroit’s older housing stock where lead paint is a common concern.

Ultra Spec® Masonry High Build Primer

A heavy-bodied masonry primer that fills hairline cracks, levels rough surfaces, and creates a uniform base for topcoats on block, brick, and concrete. Reduces the amount of finish material needed and dramatically improves the appearance of textured masonry surfaces.

Insl-x® Waterborne Pool Paint

A durable waterborne coating designed for swimming pools and water features. Resists algae, fading, and chemical exposure while delivering a clean, bright finish compatible with most previously painted pool surfaces.

Hot Trax™

A specialized floor coating engineered to resist hot tire marks — the main cause of peeling and discoloration in garage floor applications. Bonds to concrete and holds its finish under the heat and pressure of vehicle traffic.
