TECHNICAL INFORMATION
POWDER PROPERTIES & DURABILITY
Qualicoat Class 2 Super Durable™ powders are utilised to in achieve the high standards of quality and durability found in DecoVogue finishes. The powder is 50% more durable than standard powder coating and can withstand our tough Australian conditions.
ENVIRONMENTAL RESISTANCE
DecoVogue powders and film have been tested and certified to perform in extreme conditions. All finishes are a marine grade powder coating, making them ideal for projects in coastal locations. It is also UV-resistant, adhering to Qualicoat’s stringent standards of change of colour and gloss when exposed to harsh UV radiation.
DECOWOOD FINISHES
-DecoVogue utilises the same advanced photo imaging sublimation technology used to create our DecoWood finishes. -DecoVogue’s natural finishes range is created via a two-part process whereby a powder coating is applied to the selected aluminium profile or flat sheet, before a realistic pattern film is applied. This is then baked at high temperatures so the inks in the film can transfer into the entire depth of the powder coated surface.
CHEMICAL RESISTANCE
-Like all DECO finishes, The DecoVogue range has a high-level of resistance to chemicals (read more about chemical resistance testing here). -Looking for a graffiti resistant finish? Our polyurethane powders are ideal to combat most graffiti-type chemicals, making them ideal for public projects. DECO has conducted testing whereby marker pen and spray paint left for 48 hours on the coating were able to be completely removed with with a 1:1 mixture of Metiletichton and Methylated spirits (Xylene, a 1:1 mixture Acetone/Ethyl Acetate and Acetone/Ethanol can also be used) This method left no effect on the powder coated sublimated finish.
TYPES
