Fluoropolymer Coatings
Fluoropolymer coatings are extremely resistant to chalking and ultraviolet deterioration and provide exceptional colorfastness. These coatings provide resistance to environmental acids, alkalis and salts, as well as erosion from wind, rain, snow and sleet. Properly applied over pretreated and primed aluminum surfaces, these coatings will resist chipping, peeling and flaking.
Fluoropolymer coatings contain an inert fluoropolymer resin base known as kynar. They come in both a 70% kynar base and a 50% kynar base.
70% Fluoropolymer
These coatings exceed all test requirements of AAMA, specification 2605, which covers high performance organic coating on architectural aluminum extrusions and panels.
