I needed repaint some interior wooden stairs on which I had used Duron's Porch and Floor Low Gloss Acrylic Enamel. I've been using Duron [here in Virginia] for years with great success. Duron doesn't seem to make this product any more so the folks at Duron sold me a Sherwin-Williams "replacement", I think it was Acrylic Tredplex or something like that. I used a bit of it but coverage was about zero [I don't know if it wasn't mixed properly at the store or what - I spent 30 minutes stirring to no effect]. The manager was kind enough to refund the cost of the Sherwin-Williams product and recommended a replacement called H&C Shield Plus Ultra Concrete Stain Solid Color. Coverage was great, but I don't know anything about this company nor what sort of durability this product has. The Duron stuff was as tough as nails on a stairway that gets heavy teenage boy traffic. What do you all think?
I'm not sure I'm comfortable with the Sherwin-Williams' acquisition of Duron ... seem to be hollowing out Duron.
Thanks,
Bill Cole
