Coral Proteção Sol & Chuva Bronze Legend: Dark, Dramatic Facade Tone
Bronze Legend is one of the darkest shades in Coral's waterproof facade line, absorbing more solar heat. See the technical specification.
Bronze Legend is one of the darkest shades in the Coral Proteção Sol & Chuva line, which, as a general physical principle of heat absorption by color, tends to accumulate more heat under direct sunlight than a light color in the same line. This does not change the declared protection against infiltration, cracks, algae and mold, but it is worth considering for facades exposed to strong sun most of the day.

FAQ
Does Bronze Legend absorb more heat than a light color in the line?
Dark colors absorb more sunlight than light colors, a general physical principle; there are no specific temperature measurements documented for this color.
Does this color need different surface preparation because it’s dark?
No. The surface preparation procedure is the same across the whole line, regardless of color.
Does Bronze Legend show less dirt than White?
Dark tones tend to visually hide dirt marks better than light tones, though there is no documented data on this specifically.
What is the coverage of an 18 L container in this color?
Up to 85 m², the same reference for the whole line.
Does this color protect against cracks the same way as others?
Yes, the same declared protection applies regardless of color.
Do I need more coats on a dark color to get good coverage?
The reference is 3 coats for the whole line, without distinction by color.
How do I treat a structural crack before painting this color?
The repair goes in a V-groove: primer first, then a sand-and-product fill (2-3 parts sand per part of product) reinforced with polyester mesh, sealed under a minimum of 3 finish coats.
Is Bronze Legend available ready-mixed or only via the tintometric system?
The line is available in more than 2,000 shades in the Coral color range; confirm the acquisition method at the point of sale.
