Special PVDF Paint finishes for aluminum and steel (galvalume):

One of the perks of designing and building with metal, is that the design possibilities are endless. If you are going for the look of a particular material like wood or a finish like rust, you can have that idea translated into the design without any of the drawbacks the inherent features of those materials pose. You can take something from natural to supernatural and it can be done in a full warranty you’d expect from a high quality PVDF (Kynar) paint. In fact, even if you live directly on the coast, we can have all these finishes made in a marine grade paint, also eligible for full warranty even right on the ocean!

You’ll fall in love with a lot of these finishes. If you see something you like, but doesn’t quite fit in to your color scheme, remember, custom colors are available. We’ve subdivided the finishes with explanations so you can understand the rationale and recommendation for each. Remember, these are all PVDF painted finishes that are applied to your choice of aluminum or galvalume substrate. We can make any non-pressed roof or wall cladding system out of these finishes, so let your creativity free!

Ore

This finish was developed to provide cost-effective and long-lasting painted sheet metal alternatives to expensive and unpredictable natural metals. Ore will not tarnish, discolor, or rust – making it the perfect option for clean, elegant metal architecture. Ore is a great alternative to metals like brass, copper, stainless steel, zinc, and anodized aluminum. Ore is available in a wide range of colors and glosses on aluminum or steel.

Rustic Finish K5

Rustic Metal Finishes were developed to provide an innovative, painted solution to the problems commonly associated with natural, weathering sheet metal. K5 offers a full range of PVDF paint options that replicate the appearance of naturally weathering metals, such as steel, copper, and zinc. While rusted metal has become widely used in architecture, it comes with many dangers and risks. Rusting metals can corrode, leading to leaks. K5’s PVDF coating provides lasting protection to the aluminum or steel substrate. Natural rust can drip from roofs and run down walls, staining the surrounding materials and sidewalks. With K5 there is no rust, so there is no staining.

Natural metals can also be unpredictable. Natural metals will age to a variety of colors depending on their environment and atmosphere, making it difficult to achieve the desired results. Our painters at the mill can precisely replicate K5 colors and can even create custom variations, providing control and predictability. K5 Rustic Metal Finishes have been widely used in commercial, institutional, and residential building applications including corrugated and standing-seam roofing, wall cladding, column covers, doors, ceiling panels, soffits, and window mullions. They can be supplied in coil or flat sheets, both of which can be supplied with removable protective film if required.
