In the early stages of looking into repainting our house, I've come across some strongly mixed views on long-life products and in particular Wethertex.
You can see online some very vitriolic comments on type companies claiming they are "big advertising driven companies" who "subcontract work to local illegal workers" and basically claim it's a scam. Traditional painting companies tell you to be wary that they "won't tell you what products they use" but on the other hand there are also lots of good reviews. On various forums I've seen people slag them off, but others saying they have had it done and it is good.
There's only a handful of threads on Wethertex I can see on this site, mostly very old. So what's the real story? The company I came across online is very clear the product they use and say they're a small family business who never subcontract. The premise sounds reasonable - we use this sort of thing on garage floors for instance.
I'm wondering if there have been a whole slew of companies touting the "***" slogan which makes it hard to separate the good and bad. Or even if there's a bit of traditional painters wanting to stamp on competing products
Anyone actually had this done or know first hand about it?
