The Centenary Tree Canopy Walkway is a new
curved steel and wooden bridge that “snakes”
through and over the trees of the Arboretum.
Inspired by a snake skeleton, it is a low-
maintenance, minimal impact sculptural elevated
walkway.
The Walkway takes you from the forest floor into
and through the trees and surges out above the
canopy, giving remarkable panoramic views of the
surrounding mountains, Garden and Cape region.
Dekro Paints specified Dekster 504 and Dekster 508
epoxy coating for this application.
Dekster 504 is a surface tolerant epoxy coating,
filled with micro glass flakes, designed to protect
surfaces with minimum preparation. It is a primer
and top coat in one, also used to protect concrete
and often used as a heavy duty floor coating.
Dekster 508 is a twin-pack polyurethane topcoat
with excellent gloss and colour retention.

We recently completed the external
redecoration of Du Toitskloof Cellar. We
supplied our Masonry Primer and Allflex
coatings for this refurbishment. Allflex
Provides a thick, tough but elastic film to
prevent hair cracks which waterproof,
resists UV and is anti-fungal. Allflex is
Lanco wax modified to reduce dirt
retention and assist in cleaning of surfaces.
Dekro Paints have been a
proud member of the Master
Builders Association for more
than 30 years. The annual
member golf day this year
took place at Mowbray Golf
Course on a splendid warm
autumn day. Our team took
the honours of the day with a
fantastic 48 Stableford points and many thanks must go to this well
organised event.

They most certainly will defend their title this coming November.

MAINTAIN AND RECOAT YOUR TILED ROOF
An annual inspection of your roof ensures that you always stay on
top of any likely problems.
Replace broken tiles as they will cause water ingress into the roof
space. Ridge tiles can be repaired with pigmented cement slurry and
then overcoated with Eramesh embedded in Rainproof.
Once all the necessary repairs have
been made treat your roof for fungal
growth by applying a single layer of
Hydrowash Anti-fungal and leave for
24 hours to react and kill the spores.
Clean the roof with a high
pressure washer to remove all
dirt, dust and contaminates.
Apply your preferred roof
coating (Solardek / Allroof) as
detailed below.
For better adhesion it is always recommended to thin your first
coating with 10% water. Apply paint at around 8m2/l depending
on ambient temperature.
Allow coating to dry for approximately 4-6 hours before applying
second coat (un-thinned).
Roof coatings can be applied by brush, roller and airless spray.
Clean tools and equipment with clean water.
