LUMIFLON solvent-based resins have been in use for over 35 years, in applications as diverse as bridge coatings, coil coatings for architectural applications, automotive coatings, and aerospace coatings. These ultra-weatherable resins can be formulated into coatings with a wide range of gloss and color. They can be used in the field for re-coating of structures, or in the shop to manufacture pre-coated panels.
LUMIFLON solvent-based grades include LF552 and LF600X for improved flexibility, as well as LF910LM for lower VOC.Ā
