Orlando homes face intense sun, high humidity, heavy seasonal rain and frequent summer storms. From established neighborhoods near Downtown Orlando and Winter Park to growing surrounding communities, exterior finishes are constantly exposed to Central Florida’s demanding conditions.
Orlando’s housing is equally diverse, from traditional stucco and concrete block homes to masonry and fiber-cement exteriors throughout the area. Rhino Shield is a ceramic-based acrylic exterior coating system engineered as a longer-lasting alternative to traditional exterior paint.
Rhino Shield combines independently tested coating performance with professional installation and long-term protection for homes across Orlando and Central Florida. Our ceramic-based coating system is backed by documented testing, certified professional installers, and a 25-year transferable warranty.
Independent ASTM testing supports Rhino Shield’s performance across key areas relevant to Central Florida homes, including solar reflectance, wind-driven rain, adhesion, permeability, and other important performance characteristics.
Yes. Rhino Shield serves homeowners throughout Orlando and Central Florida, with a team familiar with the intense sun, humidity, heavy seasonal rain, and frequent storms that affect homes throughout the region. Rhino Shield is a professionally applied ceramic-based exterior coating system designed as a longer-lasting alternative to traditional paint.

Central Florida’s heat, strong sunlight, humidity, and rain can put exterior finishes through demanding conditions year after year. Rhino Shield uses a thicker ceramic-elastomeric coating system with published performance characteristics for weather resistance, solar reflectance, moisture management, and durability. See the full breakdown of the benefits of Rhino Shield compared with traditional paint
Rhino Shield has been independently tested for resistance to mold, mildew, and algae growth, making that performance especially relevant in Orlando’s warm, humid climate. Proper preparation is also important because existing organic growth should be removed before the coating system is applied. Review Rhino Shield’s published mold, mildew, and algae testing data
Rhino Shield has undergone independent wind-driven-rain testing under ASTM D6904. The tested coating panels passed without reported water penetration under the test conditions, making this performance particularly relevant for Central Florida’s frequent heavy downpours and summer storms. See the complete wind-driven rain and water-intrusion testing results
Yes. Rhino Shield can be applied to properly prepared stucco, concrete block, brick, HardiePlank® and fiber-cement siding, wood, and other suitable exterior surfaces commonly found throughout Central Florida. Before coating, damaged areas such as stucco cracks or deteriorated surfaces are addressed as part of the preparation process.

Rhino Shield has published testing for solar reflectance, thermal emittance, and Solar Reflective Index. These reflective characteristics may help reduce the amount of solar heat absorbed by exterior surfaces, which is especially relevant for Orlando homes exposed to long periods of Central Florida sunshine.

Every Orlando home is different, so pricing depends on factors such as home size, exterior material, existing surface condition, necessary repairs, accessibility, and architectural details. An on-site inspection is the best way to determine an accurate project price. Homeowners can review the factors that affect cost and use the Rhino Shield pricing and cost guidebefore requesting an estimate.
