Based on high-performance fluoroethylene vinyl ether (FEVE) resins, PPG DURABRITE® coating is a direct-to-metal product specially formulated to extend and enrich the beauty of architectural metals by protecting them with a resilient, transparent clearcoat or semi-transparent color coat.

Applied in a single coat, the UV-durable product enhances the reflectivity and depth of brushed aluminum, creating an anodized or natural metal look in a wide range of colors and glosses. With a hard, smooth, thermoset resin, Durabrite coatings are exceptionally abrasion resistant, clean easily and have minimal dirt pick-up.
