That’s why our team at Supershade South is your trusted Benjamin Moore and Hunter Douglas dealer in Fort Lauderdale. We proudly carry a wide variety of Benjamin Moore paint, perfectly formulated to withstand humid and salty conditions.

Benjamin Moore Bathroom Paint for Humidity

This paint has been specially formulated for maximum performance even among modern bathroom features such as steam and multiple shower heads. Specifically engineered for areas with high humidity, this paint resists mildew and moisture without compromising on color quality or finish. Its exclusive Color Lock® Technology keeps colors rich and consistent, even in steamy conditions.

For homeowners in tropical climates, Aura® Bath & Spa provides long-lasting beauty and protection in a matte finish, making it ideal for both South Florida and island homes alike.

Best Paint for Island Weather: Element Guard® Exterior Paint

When it comes to the outdoors, Benjamin Moore Element Guard® Exterior Paint is your best defense against the elements. This 100% acrylic paint is formulated to withstand fluctuating island weather—sun, salt, and humidity included. We offer Element Guard® Exterior Paint in three different finishes: Flat, Low Lustre, and Soft Gloss. This paint is 100% acrylic and formulated to withstand island weather and provide years of protection from cracking and peeling.

Element Guard® is not just popular with Florida homeowners—it’s also one of the go-to choices for our Caribbean export clients who need dependable exterior performance in tropical conditions. It’s one of our best exterior paints to withstand a varying island climate.

Advanced Formulation for Doors, Trim, and Cabinetry

For an elegant, moisture-resistant paint with high-shine finishes, Benjamin Moore ADVANCE® Interior Paint is a standout on doors, trim, and cabinetry. This waterborne alkyd paint provides the smooth, professional finish of traditional oil paint but with easy soap-and-water cleanup. It levels beautifully, resists splatter, and delivers lasting results that elevate any space—including tropical weather.
