Improved formulas provide long-lasting finishes that perform in
harshest environments
The PPG PAINTS™ brand today announced three new product
enhancements that will help painting professionals get the job done
right and, ultimately, enhance their customers’ experiences.
“With greater durability and overall performance qualities,
these reformulated PPG Paints products outperform competitive
products in many areas and demonstrate clear, improved benefits as
shown through extensive laboratory testing,” said Jennifer
Burroughs, PPG senior product marketing manager. “The enhancements
address common job-site concerns from professionals, such as dirt
resistance and flash rust resistance, to ensure better application
experiences for them, and exceptional results for their
customers.”
The new PPG Paints product formulations include:
- PPG Paints
PERMA-CRETE® PITT-FLEX® elastomeric
coating offers a 100 percent acrylic formula that touts
exceptional dirt resistance, as well as a flexible bond to prevent
hairline cracks and protect against water infiltration to achieve
uniform, pinhole-free jobs. To help keep pros’ jobs moving and save
time, the reformulated product can be applied to concrete that is
more than seven days old and with a pH level of less than 13. It
can also be applied and performs in temperatures as low as minus 35
F, a significant enhancement.
- PPG Paints
SPEEDHIDE® PRO-EV ZERO coating is ideal for
professionals who require high performance at an affordable price.
The Speedhide Pro-EV Zero formula provides excellent hide and
coverage, adhesion, uniformity, and broad color-matching
capabilities, now with a zero-VOC (volatile organic compound)
formula* (*colorants added to this base paint may increase VOC
level significantly depending on color choice). The product
enables seamless repairs, with touch-ups easily blending in to the
original coating for less sheen variation.
- PPG Paints SUN-PROOF®
exterior latex house & trim paint has been a trusted
product in the PPG portfolio since 1900, offering outstanding
adhesion to even the most difficult substrates. Sun-proof exterior
paint resists cracking, peeling and flaking, even after exposure to
demanding weather elements. Sun-proof paint is formulated to
deliver outstanding dirt-resistance properties, making it easy to
rinse away surface dirt and grime with soap and water.
Additionally, the product’s flash rust resistance ensures that rust
from items such as nail heads won’t bleed through the surface. VOC
levels of Sun-proof paint are less than 50 grams per liter, making
the product VOC-compliant in all regulated areas.
“As a global leader in coatings innovation, PPG is committed to
continually evaluating and updating our products to better meet our
customers’ needs,” Burroughs said.
All of these enhanced products are available through PPG Paints
stores and independent retailers nationwide. To learn more about
