Texture coating systems

Dulux Acratex Roller Texture and Freestyle are 100% acrylic texture coatings in the Acratex facade system range. Applied over a rendered and primed substrate, they provide a textured decorative finish coat that is the outermost weathering layer on the facade. The 100% acrylic binder provides excellent UV resistance, colour retention, water resistance, and flexibility — resisting the crack bridging of fine substrate cracks (hairline and micro-cracks) without the elastomeric elongation of a dedicated crack-bridging system. In Australian Class 2 strata facade remediation, Acratex texture coatings are the most widely used texture finish systems — familiar to painting and remedial contractors, readily available through Dulux Trade stores, and technically supported by Dulux with system-specific primers (Acratex Primer) and application guides. The Acratex range provides a broad range of texture profiles (fine, medium, coarse) and a full colour range. Confirm current product names, recommended primer, and DFT with Dulux Trade Technical before specifying.

Solver Texture Coat and Textone are acrylic texture coatings in the Solver exterior coating range, used as finish coats over rendered and primed masonry and concrete facades. Solver products are widely used by painting contractors in the eastern Australian market who work within the Solver/DuluxGroup trade supply chain. The texture coatings provide a durable, water-resistant decorative finish with UV stability suited to Australian exterior exposure. In Class 2 strata facade remediation, Solver Texture Coat is used where the painting contractor has an established Solver supply relationship and the project specification allows acrylic texture coating from the DuluxGroup system range. The Solver range provides similar technical performance to Dulux Acratex products as both are within the DuluxGroup portfolio. Confirm current product names, recommended primers, and application method with Solver/DuluxGroup Trade before specifying.

Rockcote provides a range of texture finish coatings including acrylic and mineral-based options for exterior render and facade applications. Rockcote products are commonly specified in custom residential and commercial strata projects where a higher-quality or more textured finish is required than standard roller-applied acrylic texture coatings. The Rockcote range includes spray-applied render and trowel-applied finish coats that can achieve a variety of architectural textures. In Australian Class 2 strata remediation, Rockcote texture coatings are specified by facade consultants and remedial builders who value the texture variety and EIFS-compatible options in the Rockcote range. Rockcote also provides render systems used as the base coat in EIFS applications, providing a consistent system from adhesive mortar through to finish coat. Confirm current product names, substrate suitability, and application method with Rockcote before specifying.

Haymes Rendertex Rendershield Membrane is a texture coating and membrane system for masonry and rendered facade surfaces. The Rendertex range provides textured finishes with weather and UV resistance for exterior facade application. Confirm current product technical data sheet, texture profile, application method, coverage, DFT, primer requirements, and system design with Haymes technical before specifying.

Haymes Rendertex Roll On Texture is a roller-applied acrylic texture coating for masonry and rendered facade surfaces. Roller-applied texture coatings are commonly used in remedial repainting and overcoat programs where a contractor-friendly application method is required without specialist spray equipment. Confirm current product technical data sheet, texture profile, application method, coverage rate, and system design with Haymes technical before specifying.
