Dulux Trade Extends Metalshield Range

Leading paint manufacturer, Dulux Trade, has extended its specialist coatings portfolio, with the launch of Metalshield Satin. A subtle, semi-gloss finish, Dulux Trade Metalshield Satin has been formulated to deliver easier application, improved maintenance cycles and increased labour savings.

Dulux Trade Metalshield Satin eliminates the need for a separate undercoat, reducing the application process to just three simple steps - one primer and two coats - rather than the traditional four - primer, undercoat and two coats. By simplifying application, Dulux Trade Metalshield Satin enables quicker re-coating and, in turn reduces downtime.

Alongside its straightforward application, Dulux Trade Metalshield Satin offers exceptional durability. A unique formulation within the product creates a barrier that locks out air and moisture, meaning it delivers up to eight years' protection for ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Complementing the existing gloss coating, Dulux Trade Metalshield Satin dries to a modern, flat finish, making it ideal for contemporary decorative projects.

The Dulux Trade Metalshield collection has already proven popular with specifiers and appliers alike, and this new addition extends the range to give even greater product choice for the end user. By developing the Metalshield portfolio, we've created a series of products that simplify metal specification and make it easy to find the perfect solution for the job.

With this in mind, Dulux Trade Metalshield Satin delivers unrivalled performance and durability, and helps the end user meet tight project timescales and cost limitations.

Other solutions within the Dulux Trade Metalshield range include a high performance Gloss Finish, a Zinc Phosphate Primer and a Quick Drying Metal Primer.
