shop applied finishes specification

Applying high-performance PVDF (Kynar 500® FSF®) coatings in a controlled, shop environment eliminates the risks of other trades or environmental factors interfering with the work. There’s much higher quality and consistency when coatings are shop applied. Top quality Kynar 500® FSF® coatings offer strength and longevity like no other. To make sure that there is proper protection against chalking and fading, the correct formula is critical. Carbon-fluorine bonds are one of the strongest chemical bonds available today. This bond creates superior resistance to chalking and erosion, as well as harsh airborne industrial and atmospheric pollutants. High-performance coatings utilizing Kynar 500® FSF® resin outperform all other options when it comes to UV resistance and delivering an eco-friendly way to resist heat absorption from the sun. Kynar 500® FSF® help can potentially lower energy costs, keeping occupants more comfortable and while offering a durable, elegant finish. We are an approved extrusion coating applicator for Sherwin Williams and PPG, both of which utilize Kynar 500® FSF® resin.
