What to know locally in Paarl
White is the classic colour for gables and walls in Paarl and Franschhoek, but old lime plaster needs a breathable paint or limewash, since a hard acrylic can trap moisture and blister. Ask the paint shop before choosing. Corrugated farm shed roofs around Klapmuts and Wellington often need rust treatment and roof paint after years of sun. Hygienic coatings for cellars and food areas are priced per m² by suppliers.
