The Challenge: Facilities management was challenged by both delaminating Asbestos and Lead-Based Paint on the exterior stucco walls and metal and wood trim. The estimate to remove the stucco and replace and paint the new stucco was astronomical. They wanted a cost-effective, long-lasting solution that would protect and waterproof the surfaces.

Benefits Desired:

• Waterproofing
• 20-Year Warranty
• Avoidance of Costly Removal of Asbestos Containing Stucco and Lead-Based Paint on Walls and Trim.

Results: A long-lasting Class A Fire-Rated GLOBAL Encasement System was designed to accomplish all of their goals. The system included PrepLESS Primer™to lock down the loose, delaminating Asbestos and Lead-Based Paint and LeadLock™ TopCoat, custom tinted to match the previous color. Little to no surface preparation was needed and the airless spray process did not disturb the surfaces, thereby eliminating the need for containment, other than overspray protection.
