Offered in a wide range of gloss levels and 18 standard colors, custom solid and metallic colors also are available upon request. Regardless of the color, Acrylicoat's high-solids formulation results in enhanced coverage that yields more square footage coated per gallon. Better hiding reduces the need for a second pass through the production coating line, reducing costs over time.

Acrylicoat offers extruded aluminum applicators a number of benefits throughout all steps of their coating process to help reduce applied costs, including line time and rework, while providing a durable, attractive finish for high-traffic building products. "We're proud to present a true single-coat solution that applies better, hides better and ultimately costs less," said Jeff Alexander, Vice President of Sales for Sherwin-Williams Coil and Extrusion Coatings. "With a wide curing window, it also offers applicators the option of curing at a lower temperature to save energy and money, or curing at a higher temperature for increased throughput at a higher line speed."

The new Sherwin-Williams Coil and Extrusion Coatings division was created by the recent acquisition of Valspar by The Sherwin-Williams Co. The division supports architects and designers with its high-performance coating systems, technical expertise, color-matching and sustainability resources, responsive customer service and high-priority lead times.
