Asian Paints Ace Shyne: The High Sheen Upgrade for Exteriors

Your home deserves to shine, even on a budget. Asian Paints Ace Shyne is a premium modification of the classic Ace emulsion, designed for homeowners who want the durability of an exterior paint combined with the elegance of a high-sheen finish. While standard economy paints offer a flat, matt look, this water-based exterior emulsion reflects light, giving your walls a rich, glowing appearance that stands out in the neighborhood.

Asian Paints Ace Shyne is not just about looks; it is engineered for performance. It offers enhanced resistance against algae and fungi compared to standard matt paints, ensuring your walls stay cleaner during the rainy season.

• 3-Year Performance: Typically offers a lasting finish for 3 years, making it a cost-effective solution for medium-term painting cycles.
• Crack Bridging: The flexible film can hide minor hairline cracks better than rigid cement paints.
• Wide Color Range: Available in over 1,500 shades, allowing you to experiment with bold and modern exterior color combinations.

How to Apply Asian Paints Ace Shyne

Achieve a glowing finish by following these steps:

1. Surface Preparation: Clean the wall with wire brushes and water to remove loose dust, algae, and flaking paint. Allow it to dry completely. Learn more about choosing exterior sheen levels.
2. Priming: Apply a coat of Asian Paints TruCare Exterior Wall Primer. This promotes adhesion and uniformity.
3. Dilution: Mix Asian Paints Ace Shyne with clean water (approx. 750ml water per 1 Litre paint). Stir well to ensure the sheen is evenly distributed.
4. Application: Apply 2-3 coats using a quality brush or roller. Allow 4-6 hours of drying time between coats.
5. Horizontal Surfaces: For parapets and sunshades, applying 3 coats ensures better water resistance.
