For the construction of the Cirque Condos in Dallas, Texas, the building owners required long-term aesthetic and functional protection on the aluminum handrails for individual condominium balconies.

The handrails were coated at the Quality Powder Coating facility in Carrollton, Texas, where they received a single coat of IFS 500FP in a custom silver color and thermoset to provide a uniform and solid finish. Additionally, no primer is necessary with IFS 500FP with FEVE fluoropolymer powder coatings to achieve the AAMA 2605 specification, minimizing work needed and turnaround time.
