is the exclusive importer/distributor of SCHREUDER Dutch Paints in North America. For over 120 years, the Schreuder family enterprise in Schoonhoven, Holland has provided discerning clientele world-wide with the finest architectural coatings. FINE PAINTS of EUROPE prides itself in offering a superior alternative to conventional domestic paints along with extensive product documentation and professional technical support.

SCHREUDER high performance finishes, substantially more expensive than domestic coatings, are made with the finest resins and pigments and contain no fillers to compromise the integrity of the film. Formulated for beauty and long-term economy, SCHREUDER exterior paint systems offer several distinct advantages over domestic formulations.

SCHREUDER Dutch quality is especially appreciated in the area of new residential construction where exterior paint failure is approaching the epidemic phase. Modern, heavily insulated homes clad with "new growth" siding and trim (frequently with a "mill-glaze" condition) are extremely vulnerable to moisture-related peeling, cracking and blistering.

Paint failure results when a high level of humidity forces its way through walls and comes into direct contact with the cold, unpainted inside surfaces of exterior paint film to lose adhesion. Under the worst conditions, high moisture levels in exterior partitions can result in rapid structural damage as interior members rot in a dark, moist environment.

A well-engineered home where all wooden surfaces are properly prepared and totally encapsulated with a high performance SCHREUDER alkyd barrier coating is virtually immune to premature paint failure. The SCHREUDER exterior system as a distinctive, non-chalking "finish" which normally offers twice the life of conventional domestic coatings.
