Wood & Glass Coating – Polyester

Polyester wood coating high gloss finish

Introduction

Polyester coatings are three component coatings containing base coat, accelerator and hardener. These are very high solid content coatings designed to give very high surface hardness, excellent covering and very strong surface properties. Polyester coatings are highly reactive coatings with limited pot life during application.

Storage Safety: During storage, all components of the coating need to be stored separately, as putting them together involves the risk of fire and explosion.

Paraffinic Polyester

Paraffinic polyesters contain special wax which, after application, travels to the top of the surface and can be sanded and buffed, leaving the final surface with excellent gloss and a flawless finish. These are the highest quality coatings when it comes to giving 100% glossy finish with very high clarity, flawless surface, excellent hardness and very high dry film thickness (DFT). They are directly applied on the substrate with wet-on-wet application involving coating thickness starting from 2 mm up to as high as 10 mm.

After drying, they are sanded to cut the top few mm of the surface and finally buffed to get the final surface which is thick, crystal clear, high gloss with rich and flawless finish. Also, these coatings are not absorbed into the substrate for long periods of time, resulting in retention of gloss and surface finish for a very long time. Having poor UV stability, these are generally used for interior applications only.

We offer very high quality paraffinic polyester coatings in both clear as well as pigmented finishes. These coatings contain special formulations to ensure the same application behaviour in both low as well as high temperature conditions.

Highlights:

100% Glossy Finish Very High Clarity Flawless Surface Very High DFT – 2 to 10 mm Wet-on-Wet Application Excellent Hardness Interior Applications Clear & Pigmented
Non-paraffinic polyester finish

Non-Paraffinic Polyester

Non-paraffinic polyester coatings do not contain waxes and hence do not require the costly process of cutting the top layer by rigorous sanding and buffing. They can be applied and polished like 2K PU systems. Being polyester based, they are high solid coatings which give very high covering, surface hardness and gloss. For dust-free application conditions, these coatings are excellent options for giving excellent gloss and surface hardness with very good gloss retention over time, while involving far lower cost per square feet compared to their Paraffinic counterparts.

Non-paraffinic polyesters consist of two parts: Base coat and Top coat. Further, they are available in both clear as well as pigmented finishes.

Highlights:

No Sanding & Buffing Needed Applied Like 2K PU High Solids Excellent Gloss & Hardness Very Good Gloss Retention Far Lower Cost per Sq. Ft.
