Product Performance & Testing
The test compared substrate and performance of wood coatings. The wood samples were exposed at a 45˚angle on a south-west facing rack for maximum exposure at 51˚Latitude. After 10-years and three phases of testing, Sansin’s three-coat, Precision Coat translucent and opaque systems exhibited excellent performance on Accoya (See Figure 1 & 2). The Precision Coat KP-systems were evaluated in two colors: translucent – Medallion 1187 and opaque white – RAL 9010. These coatings were applied to wood substrates including Accoya, Meranti, Merbau, Pine, Spruce and Thermally Modified wood. Sansin’s water-borne coatings offer unparalleled wood protection for Accoya.
Sansin’s water-borne coatings utilize nanotechnology, combined with oils and resins in a way which works synergistically with wood to provide superior protection. These water-borne coatings penetrate deeply, forming a durable, breathable barrier that resists cracking, and peeling. Sansin’s low-VOC formula’s enhance Accoya’s natural beauty while providing enhanced, long-lasting protection.
