Formulated with a proprietary blend of 70% PVDF, acrylic resins and advanced pigment technologies, PPG DURANAR® liquid coatings for aluminum extrusions was one of the first of its kind in the industry and remains one of the most specified architectural metal coatings in the world today.
Duranar coatings demonstrate exceptional resistance to color fade, acid rain, ultraviolet rays, chipping and peeling when applied by an approved applicator, meeting and often exceeding, FGIA/AAMA 2605 specifications, the industry benchmark for performance of coatings on aluminum building products.
Duranar Extrusion Coatings Product Family
Duranar Solid Color Coating Systems are available in an extensive solid color palette in a wide range of formulations, each designed to provide the desired balance of cost, aesthetics and performance.
Duranar SUNSTORM® Mica-Effect Coating System features the same two-coat application as conventional Duranar solid color coating systems, adding pearlescent mica flake to the color layer to create a metalescent look — without the need for aluminum flake or a third-layer clear coat.
Duranar XL Coating Systems includes metallic coatings with aluminum flake that provide high sparkle and/or metallic glow but requires a clear coat. Duranar XL clearcoat can also provide an added layer of protection over solid or Sunstorm colors. For coastal and industrial settings, a fourth coat can be added as a barrier coat.
