Extended Life Coatings
The Dean color System is based on a high content silicone polyester paint over a superior primer system. The pre-coated galvanized panels are produced under a strict quality assurance program that requires recorded physical test data on each pre-painted coil. The Dean Color System has experienced great success in rigorous tropical and semi-tropical climates. That means you can be confident of your new Dean building looking beautiful for many years to come.
Ceram-A-Star™ 950 or equivalent Coatings offer optimum exterior protection and resistance to chemical corrosion and ultraviolet radiation. Ceram-A-Star™ 950 or equivalent systems combines siliconized polyester polymers with ceramic pigments to create a super hard coating that has demonstrated outstanding strengths against acid rain and is more abrasive resistant than other softer coatings on the market. The Ceram-A-Star™ 950 or equivalent systems is available with up to 20-year Guarantees against fading, chalking, checking, cracking, blistering, and peeling.

Technical Data
Physical Properties: Ceram-A-Star™ 950 and equivalents require a dry film thickness of 0.70-0.90 mils Top coat per ASTM D 1005-84. The specular gloss is 30-40 on a 60° angle per ASTM D523-89.
Abrasion Resistance: 30 liters of falling sand/mil. of film per ASTM D968-91.
Pencil Hardness: F-2H per ASTM D 3363 (NCCAII-12). Post-formability is measured on a 180° bend on a 1/8″ mandrel, no pickoff with #610 Scotch tape. Slight micro-fracturing allowable, per ASTM D 1737-85.
Impact Adhesion: no loss of adhesion between coating and substrate after reverse impact equal to 2000 times steel thickness or 1000 time aluminum thickness in mils, expressed in inch-pounds, with no loss of adhesion, per ASTM D 2794-84 (NCCAII-6).
Humidity Resistance: 1200 hours exposure at 100% relative humidity; less than 10% #8 size blisters, per ASTM D 2247-87.
Salt Spray: 1000 hours in 5% salt fog at 95° F; no more than 1/16″ creepage from scribe. Few blisters no larger than #8 per ASTM B 117-85.

Kynar 500® coatings are specified by leading architects and used by manufacturers of metal curtain wall and other building products as a long-life exterior finish for galvanized steel and Galvalume™. The liquid coating is factory applied and oven baked on properly prepared and primed substrates. Kynar 500® coatings are typically used as exterior finishes for metal roofing, siding and fascias. The building components can be post formed from pre-coated coil stock.
Since Kynar 500® coatings require baking to cure, they cannot be field applied. Kynar 500® coatings are based on Kynar 500®, Hylar 5000®, or equivalent Polyvinyliden De-Fluoride (PVDF). They are also formulated with highly durable pigments and solvents blended for optimum application properties.

The Kynar 500® warranty is backed by the strictest production specifications and is one of the strongest in the industry. Details and further information available from your Dean representative.
Maintenance
Kynar 500® coatings are virtually maintenance free and non-staining. If necessary, surface residue may be easily removed by conventional cleaning solvents or detergents. Minor scratches may be touched up with a specially formulated, field-applied coating of the same color. Kynar 500® coatings can be used in conjunction with conventional sealants and caulking compounds. Kynar 500® is a registered trademark of ELF Autochem.
