Axalta, a supplier of liquid and powder coatings geared toward the transportation market, has added two new products to its high-performance Imron Elite coating solutions line. Both products are designed to deliver premium-quality and superior durability for today’s commercial transportation vehicles, the company said.
Axalta’s Imron Elite ColorPLUS is a premium coating system designed specifically for the new and complicated paint schemes of RVs.
“Designed to produce a superior, long-lasting, glossy finish that meets RVs’ color and processing requirements, Imron Elite ColorPLUS outperforms competitive products, especially in product consumption and paint shop productivity,” the company said. “Case study data shows the product consumption of ColorPLUS to be 25-30 percent less than competitive products. Full system application times with ColorPLUS coupled with oven cure time resulted in a 30-plus percent improvement in cycle time. It also leverages two cutting-edge companion clearcoats, 8460S and 8463S, which are designed to deliver outstanding system appearance and durability.”
The second new product added is Axalta’s Imron Elite Direct-to-Plastic basecoat, which it said eliminates the need for a conventional adhesion promoter, simplifying the coating process from three steps to two.
