Surface textures

Coatings with surface other than smooth. Finishes include wrinkle, orange peel, leatherette, spatter, stipple etc. which are applied to cover surface blemishes, make scuffs and scratches less obvious or to improve the "feel". Coatings can also be formulated with a soft, or rubbery feel. Examples include Nextel and Pebax. See also non slip finishes. Please contact our technical department for more details and advice. A special formulation of Nylon R was developed for T.F.L. (Transport for London) for use on their bus handpoles for better grip. See case study and Nylon colour and texture section.
