READ MOREStone-Effect Paint is a specialized architectural coating designed to simulate the natural visual beauty and physical touch of natural stone. By incorporating natural crushed stone powder, pigments, and special additives into an acrylic emulsion, it allows flat wall surfaces to display the heavy texture of granite, marble, or sandstone.
As a leader in the paint manufacturing industry, Zhejiang Bolei Coatings Co., Ltd. is committed to applying advanced material science to decorative coatings. Our Stone-Effect Paint series not only meets the high aesthetic demands of modern architecture but also achieves a qualitative leap in performance thanks to the strong R&D background of Bolei Industrial Group, making it an ideal alternative to heavy natural stone.

To meet the detailed requirements for stone textures in different architectural styles, Zhejiang Bolei Coatings Co., Ltd. has developed various series of Stone-Effect Paint. These products use advanced color encapsulation technology and graded stone crushing processes to accurately restore diverse visual effects ranging from rugged rock to delicate marble.
True Stone-Effect Paint: This is the most widely used type of Stone-Effect Paint. It uses natural granite crushed stone powder as an aggregate, presenting a hard and heavy feel like natural stone after spraying. The True Stone series produced by Zhejiang Bolei Coatings Co., Ltd. has extremely high hardness and impact resistance, making it the first choice for high-end residential and commercial exterior walls.
Liquid-on-Liquid Stone-Effect Paint: This category belongs to high-end Stone-Effect Paint, simulating the flowing cloud texture of marble through emulsion-encapsulated color particle technology. It has high surface gloss, a fidelity of over 95%, and is extremely light, suitable for high-rise buildings.
Liquid-on-Sand Stone-Effect Paint: This combines the texture of True Stone paint with the color layers of multi-color paint. This Stone-Effect Paint has both the concave-convex touch of natural sand and the distinct color distribution of granite, offering excellent stain resistance and crack resistance.
Rock Chip Stone-Effect Paint: Synthetic rock chips are added to the Stone-Effect Paint base, mainly used to simulate the effect of layered granite. The rock chip series provided by Zhejiang Bolei Coatings Co., Ltd. adds a sense of hierarchy to the wall, making the decorative effect more three-dimensional.
