We specified Charow Weather Guard and Texture Primer for a 4-unit apartment project in Ntinda. The coverage was exactly as quoted on their technical sheet and the finish handled the heavy April rains without any staining.
Grace Nabakooza★★★★★
The team in Kibuli mixed our custom Vinyl Silk shade within hours. The paint had practically no odour, went on smoothly in two coats, and wipes clean easily in our kitchen.
David Mukasa★★★★★
The Marble Text finish on our perimeter boundary wall and facade completely transformed the house. Excellent adhesion and their technical advisor visited our site to inspect plaster cure before application.
