Speaker 1 (00:00):
Well, I gotta ask you, is this the year kind
of looking at your house right now and going like, man,
got paint that thing again? Well, there's alternatives. And joining
me now is Todd Harville. He is with rhino Shield. Todd,
welcome again that home with Gary Sulivan.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
How you doing.
Speaker 3 (00:19):
Great? Gary, Thanks for having us on today.
Speaker 1 (00:22):
Sure so, give us kind of an introduction of what
rhino shield is. And I talked about you know the
time of year, a lot of people are looking at
their home going like I gotta probably gotta paint my
house again, and how long does regular paint usually last?
Speaker 2 (00:40):
And what is rhino shield?
Speaker 3 (00:41):
It's an alternative, Yes, it is rhino shield. The primary
makeup of rhino.
Speaker 4 (00:48):
Shield is an ingredient called an elastic americ resin material,
And basically what that is in Layman's terms, it's a
material that just never has the ability to harden. And
the whole idea is is if it can't harden, it's
not going.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
To be able to crack.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
But the secret thoughts of the whole, you know, you know,
rhino shield is the ceramics. Ceramics and what creates the
vapor barrier for your home, and it allows your home
to be able to breathe naturally without you know, retaining
moisture inside the walls. You know, in normal paint, you
know you can get five years out of a professional
(01:28):
paint job.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
By doing rhino shield.
Speaker 4 (01:32):
That eliminate that every five years of setting down with
somebody and trying to figure out what to do next.
And that's why we guarantee our products for the length
time as we do.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
How about the fade resistance? I know that probably not
as big of a deal as it was thirty years ago,
but how's it hold colors? I see now you know
people black and white houses like years sixty years ago,
but darker colors being used. How's it hold up against
the sun?
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Great?
Speaker 4 (02:05):
Because the reason is with the ceramics, it has an
R value of six point eighty nine. That's a reflective
R value, so you're putting a vapor barrier on your building.
The good thing about this is it reflects one hundred
and six percent of the UV rays, so we don't
see the color fading like you would have normal with
(02:25):
normal paints.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
How about energy savings?
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Since you bring up reflectivity in ceramic is the is
there an energy savings when you have your home coated
with rhino shield.
Speaker 3 (02:39):
Absolutely.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
Just imagine you know, Gary trying to keep a one
hundred and forty degree wall cool in the summertime. With
rhino shield, your surfaces will never get above ninety five degrees.
There's a huge savings benefit with your your you know,
air conditioning bills in the summertime.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
I had a lady call, she had an older home
where she was talking about painting her brick homes.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
Absolutely.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
Brick is probably the most primary thing that we do
most of and you know, the last person that you
had on the phone that she was talking about spawling,
and that's a common issue, especially around bricks and things
that are around chimneys and things of that nature. We
see a lot of homes that has significant damage from
(03:29):
uh spalling mm hm.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
So so energy saving, Uh, you can paint brick.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
I like that.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Breathe ability, that's that's a key. What other benefits? Well,
before I get into other benefits, how's it applied?
Speaker 4 (03:50):
What we do is it's a two coat process and
we spray both of these.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
So there's a primer coat.
Speaker 4 (03:59):
That actually burns into the subshort of what we're coating,
and then we apply the top coat and that marries
and bonds to the bottom coat, and then you have
a permanent product on the house.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
So how long should this last?
Speaker 4 (04:15):
Well, we guarantee it for twenty five years against any
kind of peeling, cracking, or chipping. So we believe that
you are going to get that life span out of
our coating.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
And this is professionally applied. People don't go to a
store and buy a cann rhino shield.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
Absolutely not.
Speaker 4 (04:33):
You know, when we go and spray our houses, all
of our crews are factory trained and they're well vetted
to make sure that they're doing the things that we
need to have done at the home to ensure that
we can offer that twenty five year warranty.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
What other benefits do we have?
Speaker 1 (04:52):
It's a great warranty for sure.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Is go ahead, go ahead, k no.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
I was going to say, and with the twenty five years,
if somebody who's going to change the color, can they
use pain over it or no?
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Yeah, they can't.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
Absolutely, So don't be afraid that if you apply it
to your home and you know, twenty years later you
decide to sell and the new home homeowner doesn't want
to use rhino shield. Absolutely you can use whatever kind
of paint that you want, but we offer a substantial
discount if folks do buy homes that has Rhino Shield
(05:30):
on it, if they're looking to recout it for a
different color.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
Good. Good to know. I didn't know that. I didn't
know that.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
All right, the other benefits, I'm sorry, I'm.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Actually going to ask that question and keep it as
a question. I asked.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
Yeah, the biggest benefit of Rhino Shield on the home
is the longevity and just knowing that you have a
you know, a local company that you know stands behind
the warranty of Rhino Shield and that's what people you know, Mike,
and what they expect and we, you know, provide those services.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
So I guess the thing we always come back to
is how many colors does it come in?
Speaker 3 (06:11):
Sometimes Gary too many.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
We have over fifteen hundred colors, and we can custom
color whatever the customer wants.
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
So usually I guess when people think of painting a house,
we think about wood clapboard house. We talk about you know,
I asked about the brick houses. And there's people that
have metal sighting and stuff and even model signing. Can
it be used on that or stucco? Can it be
used on any substrate or is there some things people
(06:44):
need to know about that?
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Right?
Speaker 4 (06:48):
It's our primer is the key ingredient to this whole thing,
and that's what gives all of its bonding ingredients. Aluminum
homes that we do works wonderfully. Originally, rhino shield was
developed for stucco and masonry homes, so that's the reason
why it worked so well when masonry products like hardiboards
(07:10):
and sure things of that nature.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
I always used to say metal sighting is better than
painting wood because it's not wood. You know, it's a
stable and plus stable product.
Speaker 4 (07:23):
Aluminum is aluminous perfect. It looks great when it's on
the home. There's no fudging with aluminum like you can
with the vinyl. Either good at doing it or you're not.
That's why we like doing aluminum so well because of
this the end result, this looks beautiful.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
So this this year has been crazy year. It's been
Uh it was cool and rainy in the spring and
now it's hot and rainy in the summer. I don't
know how far you out are are out on jobs,
but I always you know, the best time to pay
is probably between now and you know, the end of October,
(08:03):
maybe even November.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Do you agree with that?
Speaker 1 (08:08):
I mean application time that we're writing a sweet spot now,
they should call now get that scheduled.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Absolutely. This is a literal horse race.
Speaker 4 (08:18):
Until the end of November, right because we have to
be about forty degrees to apply our coding and it's
just a it's an all out race to get as
much done as we can before the end of the year.
And if you're going to decide to do your house,
time is of the essence because our books are filling fast.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Okay, so let's go through that process. Somebody's listening right
now and go like, well, I'll tell you what I'm
going to be in this house for a while. I'm
not going anywhere. Twenty five years sounds fantastic. With a warranty,
I don't have to worry about that will probably be
here another fifteen or twenty years. How they get a
hold of you and how does this process take place?
Speaker 4 (09:00):
Well, what happens is is that you can either go
online and you know, click the get a quote button
and what that What happens then is Lindsay reaches out
sets up a time that's convenient for you, guys to
have me come out and I would be the person
that would be coming. And you know, usually that takes
(09:20):
a couple two or three days for me to get
to you and then I go and show you what
it can do to your home and get you a price.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
Very good and how long?
Speaker 1 (09:31):
I know you can't answer this because all homes are different,
but usually are you there a week? Is it a
day or two?
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Or yeah?
Speaker 4 (09:41):
It's uh, this is you know a lot of folks
think that this is a two or three day you
know process. It usually takes us two or three days
just to prep the house, to get it prepared to
even receive our top coat. Normally, if we start on Monday,
we should have it wrapped up by Friday.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
Excellent, excellent.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
All right, you got a number website for us there, Todd.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
Yes, yes I do. Gary.
Speaker 4 (10:04):
It's eight eight eight, Rhino forty one or Rhinoshield, Kwy
dot com.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Right shield Kaywy dot com. All right, well, stay busy,
I'm sure you will and beat the heat, huh and protect.
I love the idea. Where else you're going to talk about,
quote painting your house in saving money? That's not going
to happen. The rhinoshield with the ceramic coating will do
(10:31):
just that. Plus the twenty five year warranty sounds outstanding.
And thank you for your time.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
Thanks Gary for having us.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
All right, Todd, thank you, take care, bye bye. All right,
So an alternative. I wanted to give you that alternative.
I literally had that applied to my home. I should
have asked him. I'm thinking five years ago. Maybe it's
been more. And they were so efficient, did such a
(11:00):
great job, and the I think the very next week
my neighbor was half his house done and uh I
never had a service call on it. It looks great
and it is fade resistant, still works like you just
did it yesterday.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
It does. I mean, it looks great. Yeah, it is
a great A little bit more.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Expensive than paint, but uh, you know, you got to
always kind of question yourself, how much more, you know,
are you going to pay to have it repainted and
climbing up the ladder if you're going to do it yourself.
But certainly an alternative, and there is a savings and
reflecting the solar gain from the sun.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
All right, let's take that break. We'll continue. You are
at home with
