New 2604 Paint from Profile Extrusion Bests Industry-Standard Powder Coating

Press Release:
  Apr 6, 2012 — Profile Extrusion Company introduces PRO10XL, an industry-leading 2604 aluminum paint manufactured by Duracoat. PRO10XL features reduced color deviation, extended gloss retention, and a ten-year warranty.

Available exclusively from Profile Extrusion Company, PRO10XL is a proprietary polyester resin that provides extra protection from acid rain and corrosive environments. It is made with premium exterior grade pigmentation to provide color stability and resistance to chalking and fading.

The exterior weathering performance makes PRO10XL a cost-effective coating for commercial and monumental applications. It is ideal for use on curtain walls, window frames, store fronts, fascia, trim railings and other similar aluminum extrusions.

AAMA specifications for 2604 paint are categorized by performance and generally include a 5-year warranty. Without adding additional cost from the industry standard, PRO10XL offers a 10-year warranty. The paint will not only resist chips, cracks, and peeling, but is warranteed for color retention and consistency at less than 5 ΔE deviation for 5 years and 7 ΔE for 10 years, an improvement over the industry standard.

The results of a 500 and 1,000 hour UV test reveal that PRO10XL paint outperforms both standard 2604 paint and standard powder coating.

“PRO10XL will allow our customers to differentiate themselves from their competitors and offer their own customers a superior finished product with longer life,” says Profile General Manager David Newby.

A special resin technology in PRO10XL series products provides extra stain resistance and prevents dirt pick-up. The top hardness of the coating prevents marring and scratching during transit and asemble to reduce scrap and field touch-up. This hardness also prevents chipping during cutting, drilling, and hole-punching.

PRO10XL is available in low to high gloss finishes. A custom internal intermix system provides fast response to special customer needs. Mica and aluminum-based metallics provide unique finishes without the need for a clear overcoat.

An interactive website has been created to allow users to compare the industry standard deviation with that of Pro10XL paint for any paint color.
