Novel pigments useful as primary extenders in exterior grade latex formulations are described. The pigments are composed of particles of calcined clay, substantially all the particles of which are finer than about 44 microns and having an average particle size, equivalent spherical diameter, within the range of about 3 to 10 microns, most preferably within the range of about 4 to 8 microns. The novel pigments are further characterized by having a significantly lower oil absorption value (ASTM) than conventional, calcined clay pigments. Exterior grade paint formulations containing such pigments can be formulated below the critical pigment volume concentration without substantially reducing opacity or chalking resistance.
