Painting

Apply two coats of a premium exterior grade topcoat. Topcoat colours should have a Light Reflective Value (LRV) of 45 or higher, as dark colours can encourage resin bleed and distortion leading to cracking and premature paint failure. Paint must be applied as per the manufacturer’s recommendations.
