Consider your options that enhance, protect and endure.
Permadize® Hardcoat Finishes combine the proven durability of 50% fluoropolymer resins with a rich metallic pearlescence to create vibrant colors that transform your perception of finishes. The Permadize® secret is its formulation process in which the pearlescent highlights are combined with texturizers – small, metallic-like particles – that add increased abrasion resistance. The result is a hard finish that blends beauty with everyday toughness and mar resistance.
PERFORMANCE THAT MEETS AAMA 2604 REQUIREMENTS
Permadize® finishes stand up to normal use, abuse and weathering; ultimately, they help hold down building maintenance costs. Proven to perform, Permadize® Hardcoat Finishes are tested to meet the most stringent standards and have surpassed the AAMA 2604 testing requirements. The specification allows non-chrome pretreatment and covers a period of five years of South Florida exposure as well as tough abrasion, gloss retention and adhesion tests (see table opposite). The added hardness of the 50% Kynar formulation enhances protection against finish damage and touchups that are sometimes required during transportation, installation and everyday use.

SPECIFICATIONS THAT MEET AAMA 2605 REQUIREMENTS
Permafluor™ coating will meet or exceed test requirements of AAMA 2605, Voluntary Specification, Performance Requirements and Test Procedures for Superior Performing Organic Coatings on Aluminum Extrusions and Panels.
The following are guidelines for specifying and applying Permafluor™ coatings:
Permacoat™ powder coatings are solvent-free and emit no volatile organic chemicals (VOCs) into the atmosphere. These powder paint systems require less energy to apply and reduce waste in application, as overspray can be reclaimed and reused. Sometimes known as dry paint, powder coatings are solvent-free, emit no volatile organic chemicals into the atmosphere and are more energy efficient to apply. Powder coatings provide a solution to environmental concerns while offering high performance, durability and a wide variety of color options.
PERFORMANCE THAT MEETS AAMA 2604 REQUIREMENTS
Anodizing is a general term that describes the process of converting the surface of aluminum to aluminum oxide. Under carefully controlled conditions, anodizing produces a uniform oxide coating. Controlled anodizing produces a coating that protects aluminum from the environment. It is a long-lasting and proven coating that resists scratching, abrasion and corrosion from marine or industrial atmospheres and provides excellent protection from the sun’s damaging ultraviolet rays.
