Painting Metal Pole Buildings in Glenwood MD

If you’re considering painting your metal pole building, you’ve come to the right place and the right company. The first and most important thing to consider when painting a metal building is the coating that’s currently on it— most metal buildings are originally painted in the factory with Polyvinylidene-Fluoride, popularly known by its original trade name Kynar, or PVDF. PVDF resin-based coating or finish, a family which includes Teflon and Halar. Key to these chemicals’ toughness is the bond between carbon and fluoride, the strongest possible polymeric connection.

PVDF resin has a high chalk resistance and gloss retention, as well as stain and chemical resistance. It’s softer than SMPs and polyesters, however, it’s highly formable without having the risk of cracking. PVDF is most durable when it makes up 70 percent of the resin; higher concentrations do not coat well, since the acrylic is important for dispersion during the coating process.

Kynar is an extremely durable coating and acknowledged as the premium resin for coil coatings. However, repainting over this coating comes with some challenges. Virtually no off-the-shelf exterior paints will properly adhere to it. Painting Contractors of MD uses the correct commercial grade primers and products to do the job done right, and make sure the paint job is lasting, and just as good as the original Kynar paint coat!
