The Hamilton East Medical Centre in Grey Street, Hamilton looks as good as the first day it was painted, even though that day was almost 18 months ago.

Resene Thixalon 5 tinted to Resene Bison Hide (light grey brown) was applied to all titan board wall faces textured to a light stucco finish protected by a glaze coat of Resene F-10 solventborne clear glaze. The clear glaze coat offers an additional buffer coat to protect the textured coating against the weather together with a smoother consistent finish film leaving an easier to clean and maintain surface.

A tonal colour contrast was achieved by applying Resene Thixalon 5 tinted to Resene Napa (grey beige) to titan board wall and roof soffits and overcoating the complete system in Resene F-10 Glaze. To complete the exterior façade, steelwork was treated to a special colour match to silver dazzle joinery.

With the F-10 Glaze acting as a durability booster shot, this medical centre won't need a check-up until well into the future.
