• Matt finishes
Nextel^® Suede is a tactile matt finish, with excellent scratch, knock and abrasion resistance as well as a degree of elasticity. It has a distinctive suede-like surface that feels like warm peach skin. It is a two-component material that is primarily used to enhance the look and feel of different types of surfaces.
Nextel^® Velvet-Coating is a black, flat matt coating that absorbs 98% of light. It is resistant to heat, condensate and impact damage, and has a high degree of elasticity. It is especially suitable for applications where glare or reflection must be eliminated, and can be applied directly to cleaned or pretreated substrates in one coat.
Alexit^® Softcoating is a smooth, soft, leather-like finish. It is a polyurethane-based two-part coating that can be used on a variety of substrates, including plastics and metals, to improve surface feel, appearance and acoustic properties.
• High gloss finishes
Alexit^® Decklack is a high gloss, two-component polyurethane-based material for internal and external use. It is resistant to UV and weather damage, and retains its gloss and colour stability even in extreme conditions. It is also resistant to abrasion and scratching, as well as various chemicals.
• Textured finishes
Alexit^® Microeffekt is a textured, two-component fine pearl-effect coating. It is highly resistant to scratches, abrasion and cleaning chemicals, and is suitable for use on most substrates. It is directly applied to the substrate as one layer, forming a fine textured surface that is traditionally only possible with two-layer coatings.
• Decorative antimicrobial finishes
Alexit^® Strukturlack Antimicrobial is a decorative antimicrobial coating, that provides long-term protection against most types of microbe and bacteria. It is resistant to scratching, solvents, chemicals, cleaning agents and disinfectants.
• Exterior metal coating
Schuppenpanzer is a brush-applied protective paint system that provides long-term corrosion protection for galvanised steel and aluminium surfaces.
