Painting An Anodized Storefront Window?


I got a call about painting an anodized window, is it any different than painting normal alumium? If so how? Also I live in the Chicagoland area anyone know any good cold weather paints?

Re: Painting An Anodized Storefront Window?


yes it is very different than painting normal aluminum.

there are a few systems out there that will work. here are 2:

better system
Prime with DTM Wash Primer
Finish with SW Hydrogloss

good system
Prime with ProCryl
Finish with SherCryl

for the best systems you prime with DTM Wash Primer and top coat with 2 component urethane. talk to your rep.
