— is a standard architectural polyester topcoat designed for outdoor use on HDG and aluminium. It is based on acid-catalyzed hot-setting melamine cross-linked saturated aromatic polyester. Also contains pigments, extenders, solvents and performance enhancers. The finished coating has medium gloss and demonstrates a good balance between hardness and flexibility and also strong weathering and UV-resistance.
