Colorbond® and other factory pre-finished steel products

Colorbond® and other brands of pre-finished steel roof sheeting have a coating applied prior to pressing into the final shape or profile.

The factory applied finish can vary significantly between manufacturers resulting in some imported products being inferior to the genuine Colorbond®.

However, regardless of the brand of pre-finished steel roofing that you have it will require maintenance to ensure it looks its best.

Based on more than 30 years experience coupled with modern technological advancements the REBOND© process uses a specifically formulated acrylic lacquer designed to perform as well as the original material used by BlueScope Steel (BSL). The REBOND process uses material manufactured by the same company that supplied the original coating material used by BlueScope Steel.

Compared to a standard water based acrylic, the Restyle REBOND system will maintain its colour and gloss over a much longer period of time. The graphs below show the performance of REBOND against a water based acrylic over a 10 year period.

The actual performance of the two finishes is best illustrated in the follow photo.

These two building were coated at the same time with the same colour. The preparation was identical with the coating material used being the only difference.

The building on the left was coated using a brand name water based acrylic and the building on the right used the Restyle REBOND top coat. These photos were taken 3 years after the coatings were applied.

The building coated with the water based acrylic has faded considerably with a corresponding loss of colour and gloss compared to the building on the right.
