Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

🔨For Builders & Contractors

👉How does DIAMOND SHIELD differ from normal anti-rust paints?

Ordinary paints create only a superficial film — these are porous and break down quickly. DIAMOND SHIELD is a proprietary dual-coat barrier system that chemically bonds to rebar, blocks chlorides and moisture, and preserves rib grip. Engineered for structural-grade protection, not just for cosmetics.

👉How much coverage can I expect from your coatings?

👉Is FISKO INDIA™ warranty included automatically?

Warranty is offered via the FISKO INDIA™ Warranty Program, issued only after project registration, inspection, and compliance with our application guidance. This ensures durability is always achieved as designed.

👉Can your coatings be used in government or infrastructure projects?

Yes. Our systems are suitable for bridges, flyovers, tunnels, retaining walls, and large-scale housing projects. Technical approvals are required based on project specifications.

👉Do you provide site training or demonstrations?

Yes. For bulk projects, we provide on-site demonstrations and applicator training so the correct process and methods are followed.

*Actual coverage may vary with site conditions, bar diameter, surface porosity, and application method.

👉How does DIAMOND SHIELD protect my home?

It prevents steel reinforcement from rusting inside concrete. Without protection, rust can expand 6–8x, causing cracks and weakening your home’s backbone. DIAMOND SHIELD ensures the skeletal structure stays strong for generations.

👉What problems does PLINTH SHIELD solve?

👉How is JAPANI SHIELD different from normal wood polish?

Ordinary polishes add shine but offer no real protection. JAPANI SHIELD is a dual-coat system that resists termites, moisture swelling, UV fading, and peeling — while giving a premium gloss finish.

👉How long will the protection last?

If applied as per guidelines (minimum 2 coats), protection lasts for decades. Independent lab tests under salt-spray, moisture, and termite exposure confirm long-term results.

👉Can I test the product myself?

Yes! We provide demo wood samples and on-site demos for DIAMOND SHIELD and PLINTH SHIELD. Products can be tested in water, termite exposure, or outdoors — performance speaks for itself.

🏠For Homeowners

Rising dampness is one of the most frequent problems in Indian homes, causing plaster to hollow, paint to peel, and endless white salt patches. PLINTH SHIELD creates a lasting barrier at plinth level, keeping walls dry and healthy.

👉Are your products safe to use?

Yes, when handled properly. Wear gloves, masks, and ensure proper ventilation during application. These are not for consumption and must be kept away from children, heat, and open flames.

👉Can I get technical support after purchase?

👉Where can I buy FISKO INDIA™ products?

🛑Myth 1: Concrete alone protects steel reinforcement.

Concrete is porous. Water, oxygen, and chlorides can seep through microcracks, reaching reinforcement within months. Without a proper barrier, corrosion starts almost immediately.

🛑Myth 2: Rising dampness is just an aesthetic problem (paint peeling).

🛑Myth 3: All wood polishes protect against termites.

Most polishes only add shine, lacking termite, moisture, and UV resistance. Termites eat wood from the inside—JAPANI SHIELD provides real protection and a glossy finish.

🧱Myth vs Fact — The Truth About Construction

Dampness destroys the cement-sand bond, hollows walls, and carries damaging salts deep inside. It eventually weakens the wall structure, not just paint.

🛑Myth 4: Any single coat of paint or primer is enough to stop corrosion/dampness.

Scientific testing proves single coats leave pinholes and uneven thickness. Only dual-coat systems achieve proper DFT and reliable long-term protection.

🛑Myth 5: Repairs are cheaper than prevention.

Structural repairs often cost 10–20× more than prevention—excluding lost time and emotional stress. Prevention saves money and peace of mind.
