Missouri Landmark Gets a Second Life with Rhino Shield

When the owner of a historic landmark entrusts you with its restoration, it’s a true mark of distinction. This iconic building in University City, Missouri, once served the community as a drive-through gas station nearly a century ago. Purchased in 2008, the current owner recently chose Rhino Shield of Missouri to undertake its long-anticipated restoration.

Preserving Missouri’s Past

Rhino Shield’s team applied a durable, ceramic infused stucco coating to weatherproof the exterior, meticulously preserving the original wood soffits. Decorative brick sills and accents received Rhino Shield’s clear coat sealant, preserving the original brick’s color and integrity while shielding it from environmental wear. 

 

Why Rhino Shield Was the Ideal Choice

Rhino Shield coatings offer exceptional longevity and low maintenance, making them ideal for preserving historic architecture. The ceramic elastomeric finish resists cracking, fading, mildew, and water damage—critical for caretakers of century old structures. By safeguarding both the stucco and wooden elements, Rhino Shield ensured the building’s character endures for decades to come. 

Rhino Shield of Missouri is proud to help protect architectural legacies while enhancing curb appeal and reducing maintenance for years to come.
