Features 

Advanced UV protection against chalking

Chalking happens when a fine powder appears on the surface of a paint film due to the degradation of the paint. It is usually caused by exposure to UV light or other forms of radiation. All Weather is formulated to be highly durable and protect against UV damage and chalking. 

Protection against mould and mildew

Taubmans All Weather inhibits the growth of mould and mildew. Mould and mildew can be harmful to health, especially if you have asthma or other allergies. All Weather’s special anti-mould and mildew formula ensures that you’ll be protected. 

Lifetime guarantee

Taubmans All Weather has a lifetime guarantee against blistering, flaking, or peeling if applied correctly. Taubmans lifetime guarantee gives you peace of mind that you can rely on its protection for longer.

Self priming 

All Weather’s self-priming formula means that you don’t have to worry about applying a separate primer. It helps to seal in underlying liquids, form a surface for paint to adhere to; and provide a uniform surface to improve the paint's appearance.

Washable and dirt resistant

Taubmans Nanoguard technology provides a protective shield so dirt can be easily washed away without compromising the quality of the paint or damaging the finish.
