FORMULATED FINISH Diamond KoteÂŽ pre-finish is an advanced paint technology, which uses the purest metal oxide colorants extracted from rocks. These natural raw pigments don't fade over time, will keep your siding vibrant and protected from destructive Ultraviolet sun rays which causes synthetic tints to fade quickly.

SHOWN UNDER 40X MAGNIFICATION

QUALITY PAINT MATTERS Under 40x magnification, there are significant differences between the Diamond Kote® pre-finish and other finishes. Other finishes are porous, resulting in a dull finish that traps dirt and moisture and can lead to premature failure.

LOW MAINTENANCE Diamond Kote® pre-finish is designed to be low maintenance, resisting the build up of dirt and grime while locking out moisture. Being easy to clean, combined with a durable finish reduces overall maintenance.

9

SUPERIOR MANUFACTURING Our fully automated process with robotic sprayers, advanced finish and a clean indoor environment creates a quality scratch resistant product that cannot be duplicated on site or with flood coating applications.

10

“DIAMOND KOTE IS TRULY THE SUPERIOR FINISHED SIDING PRODUCT ON THE MARKET!”

ASTM TEST D3359-09 - STRENGTH OF BOND

ENHANCED DURABILITY ASTM Test D3359-09 tests the bond strength between the substrate and paint. The industry standard states if 20% or less paint is removed from the substrate it passes the test. Diamond Kote® exceeds beyond the standard. Note: ASTM D3359-09 Standard Test Methods is for Measuring Adhesion by Tape Test

LONG TERM PERFORMANCE We design and test all of our products for maximum protection against the elements. Enjoy a durable scratch-resistant finish that withstands the test of time with no peeling, chalking or fading.

RESISTS IMPACT NASA testing of LP® SmartSide® siding has shown that it resists impacts from baseballs, golf balls, river rocks, and marbles traveling at high speeds. Watch the impact video on our YouTube Channel.

LONGER LENGTHS = FEWER SEAMS Be proud of your home with engineered lap siding. Longer 16 foot lengths equals fewer seams versus using shorter vinyl or fiber cement products. Other installation practices can result in unattractive seams. Request Diamond Kote® color matching H-Moldings for your home. 36

RIGIDSTACK SIDING

Elkhorn & Sand Trim

™

STRONGER SIDING RigidStack™ Siding is designed with a spline to stack and lock together, plus all the benefits of lap siding.

Seal

Pelican, Light Gray & White Trim

STACKS FOR PERFORMANCE As pieces are stacked, they form an extremely strong system. This bond is up to 375% stronger than regular lap siding.

WEATHER THE STORM Loose siding can make a flapping noise in windy conditions. Choose RigidStack™ with extreme strength to protect against coastal winds and damage from hail, up to 1.75" in diameter in all regions.

37

RIGIDSHAKE

™

ELEVATE YOUR STYLE Diamond Kote® Siding System includes a family of distinctive shakes to help enhance your home’s architectural elements.

French Gray & White Trim

Biscuit

BUILT TO PROTECT Using the same technology as RigidStack™ siding and built on the same durable substrate for a low maintenance design that lasts longer than real cedar shingles.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT DESIGN It’s important to think about the style, architecture, and time period of your home. Cape Cod and Colonial style homes use a straight edge shake, while a Craftsman style home would typically use a staggered edge shake.

38

HISTORIC COLLECTION

Biscuit, Pewter Green & Biscuit Trim

REVIVE THE PAST Highlight the historical look of your home with a classic feel featuring timeless designs.

Olive & White Trim

Biscuit & Cinnabar Trim

CAPTURE A PERIOD IN TIME Victorian homes became popular in the mid 1800’s and typically featured decorative Scallop shapes. Choose the look of an era and say goodbye to the expensive up keep with this low maintenance option.

STORYBOOK LOOKS Neatly sculpted rows of gable ends, dormers and other architectural features come to life with RigidShake™ Octagons. Note: RigidShake™ is exclusively available straight edge, staggered edge, and octagon shape.

39

PANEL SIDING

Smoky Ash & White Trim

ADDING TEXTURE Create visual interest with texture or vertical accents to accentuate and make your home appear larger with more dimension.

Bungalow, Clay & Biscuit Trim

BOARD AND BATTEN Emphasize the vertical areas on the exterior to create a rustic farmhouse inspired home. Varying the width of the trim with different sizes or spacing can create a variety of styling options.

REVERSE BOARD AND BATTEN Versatile enough to work with a rustic looking cottage or a contemporary modern look. Inverted grooves give your home accented texture with a more subtle look.

40

Pewter Green

Cinnabar & White Trim

STUCCO Mix and match textures to add curb appeal to your home with an artistic flair. Stucco panels have a hand-troweled effect which gives the appearance of genuine stucco.

GROOVED PANELING This vertical siding style adds interest giving it a taller appearance to the home, drawing the eye upward. Choose from two different widths to customize the look to your home. Style tip: 8 inch on center panels compliment wider facades verses 4 inch on center panels. 41

PROTECTIVE TRIM SYSTEM

CATCH YOUR EYE Our protective trim system offers solutions that deliver value for both builders and homeowners. Accent your home with trim without drawing your eye to the wrong places, such as nail heads or bad touch up.

French Gray, Seal & White Trim

Bungalow, Custom Color & Sand Trim

NAIL FIN TRIM Trim with nail fin is designed to enhance the look around windows, doors, and gables while concealing fasteners for a flawless appearance to your home.

NAIL FIN OUTSIDE CORNER We offer a 4 inch and 6 inch widths giving you design options while eliminating the need to face nail. Face nails lead to touch up painting and other maintenance issues.

42

STYLE TIP Set yourself apart from the neighborhood! Add Rosettes to your trim and highlight unique characters of a Victorian style home. pg. 50

Coffee & Biscuit Trim

Bedrock

NAIL FIN INSIDE CORNER Complete your trim package by choosing a color coordinated inside corner, which typically matches the siding color.

ARCH TRIM Bring arched windows or entry ways to life with a seamless design that will perform better against water intrusion. Accent with an optional keystone to draw more attention to the architectural style of your home.

43

SOFFIT + FASCIA

Coffee & White Trim

PROTECT YOUR INVESTMENT A significant body of research has revealed that 47% homes in the U.S. do not have proper ventilation. Lawrence Berkley Laboratory

Cinnabar & White Trim

POWER OF PROBLEMS Poorly ventilated homes contribute to higher energy costs and moisture problems. Moisture build up could lead to mold or mildew, which may lead to respiratory issues.

SOLUTION: PROPER VENTILATION Our solution is to provide a product with a high (net free air) rating of 10 NFA to work with your roofing vent system. Commonly used vinyl and cement systems only average 5-7 NFA which may not meet roof warranty standards.

44

White Trim

Tan & Biscuit

TOP IT OFF RIGHT Create a dramatic effect by finishing your overhangs, porch, and ceilings with the same woodgrain look. Be the talk of the block with a soffit that is as distinctive as the siding.

STRONGER & THICKER PRODUCT Thin metal fascias are easily damaged by hail and storm debris or could blow off in the wind. Just like our siding, our fascia resists impact and can hold up against the damaging effects of mother nature. Choose a whole siding system with matching woodgrain for a high end feel. 45

RIGIDMOUNT

™

DON’T LEAVE IT TO CHANCE Why risk a contractor fabricating these in the field, when RigidMount™ offers an exclusive line of mounts built on LP® SmartSide® for all your needs.

Mountain Lake

Sand

KEEP WATER OUT Pipes and utilities penetrate the home for everyday functions - water should not. RigidMount™ includes built-in water management and nail fin for a flawless look.

INTEGRATE STYLE & FUNCTIONALITY Choose a professional product that will blend into your exterior and feel the satisfaction of a job done right. Insist on using RigidMount™ blocks for your home.

46

STARTER BOARD

PERFECT TRANSITION Providing the perfect transition between the ground and first course of siding to maintain installation requirements.

French Gray and White Trim

Grizzly

PLAN FOR PROTECTION Don’t dig up your prized landscaping after all your hard work. Using starter board helps protect the bottom of your siding from moisture. New homes can benefit as well, so any future landscaping plans don’t impose on your siding.

BEAUTY FROM THE GROUND UP Call out the frame of your home by making your starter board the same color as your trim. Otherwise, for a more subtle transition match the starter to your siding.

47

Olive & Sand Trim

STYLE YOUR WAY Each home is unique - just like each family. Show your style by adding decorative elements to the outside of your home for a distinctive and personalized touch.

48

PRO-POST ™ WRAP

BEFORE + AFTER

MAKE A STATEMENT Set the stage with a grand entrance for your home and upgrade old peeling posts with a new Pro-Post Wrap™, or add finishing touches to a deck by wrapping pressure treated posts.

Bedrock, Bungalow & White Trim

Bungalow

GRAND ENTRANCE First impressions are everything. The wood-look and near seamless appearance of Pro-Post Wrap™ help to add style and value to your home. It makes an incredible difference to your home’s look.

OUTDOOR LIVING Leave the neighbors talking after your next barbecue with how stunningly beautiful your home looks. Whether used underneath a deck, on a porch, or outdoor living space, Pro-Post Wrap™ can provide an unforgettable impression on your home.
