V272 moves beyond the Apex/Duracast intermediate textures into the premium Ultima Allura stone-texture family and the exterior topcoat/emulsion ecosystem. Current Asian Paints sources list Ultima Allura families separately from Apex Createx and Duracast. citeturn0search0turn0search9
Current exterior-texture catalogue lists Concordia, Reserva, Meraki, Venezio, Torino and Clara. The family is described as premium stone textures designed for exterior use. With Clara topcoat, the current inspiration page states a 10-year warranty, superior anti-algal resistance, tough weather resistance and high dust-pick-up resistance. citeturn0search9
Maintained as its own product identity rather than collapsing all Allura textures into one product. Exact finish-level application and shade details must follow the individual manufacturer source.
Maintained as separate premium stone-texture identities. The website should later store each finish's exact visual design, shade card, base/texture/topcoat system and application method independently.
Maintained separately as premium exterior texture identities. No generic coverage, thickness or shade count is copied across the family without a product-specific source.
Clara is treated as a system topcoat rather than as just another decorative texture. Current Asian Paints inspiration material associates it with the Ultima Allura system's 10-year warranty, anti-algal, weather and dust-pick-up protection. citeturn0search9
These are kept as topcoat identities. Current Duracast PIS documents explicitly state that Apex / Apex Ultima / Apex Ultima Metallic are applied as topcoats for specified textures. citeturn0search12turn0search14
Current Asian Paints Apex catalogue separately lists variants such as Apex Advanced Dust Proof, Apex Shyne, Apex Dust Proof Ultraa, Apex Shyne Dust Proof Advanced, Apex Shyne Nano Block and Apex Dust Proof Nano Block. These are exterior emulsions, not texture intermediates. citeturn0search11
Asian Paints currently positions Duralife with nano-technology and protection against dampness, cracks and severe climatic conditions. This is maintained as an exterior protection/emulsion branch, separate from Duracast texture. citeturn0search2
Current manufacturer service material describes Tile Guard as a water-based high-performance coating for roof tiles, Kerala bricks and non-porous baked clay tiles, with strong water repellence and long-lasting adhesion. citeturn0search2
Current Apex catalogue lists Floor Guard with 50+ shades, super adhesion, resistance to vehicular/foot traffic and a 2-year warranty positioning. citeturn0search11
Surface → problem → desired appearance → texture or smooth finish → protection requirement → primer → intermediate texture if needed → compatible topcoat → exact warranty/PIS → maintenance. This mirrors the manufacturer system logic visible in the current product pages.
Do not copy the current catalogue's per-litre MRP into Islamia's dealer price. Asian Paints itself notes that per-litre cost can vary by pack, shade and finish. The Islamia website should keep manufacturer information and live dealer pricing as separate data fields. citeturn0search0turn0search11
