Georgia
Gold rush architecture and mountain weather make Dahlonega a hard place for ordinary paint. Around the historic square and the University of North Georgia campus you find 19th century wood siding and painted brick, while the ridges in Sky Country, Achasta, Crown Mountain and Montaluce carry cedar, log and fiber cement chosen for the view rather than the exposure. The town sits near 1,450 feet and the ridges climb higher, so north facing walls stay shaded and damp, moss settles on the cool side of a house, and freeze-thaw drives moisture into every seam. Cabins along Yahoola Creek and the Chestatee River take the worst of it. Log and cedar are always moving, which is exactly why a ceramic coating suits them. At a minimum of 10 to 12 mils, Rhino Shield bridges checks and seams and travels with the wood instead of cracking off it. Ten paint coats would barely match that build, and none would carry a transferable 25-year warranty or end the recoat due every three to five years.
