t MARVINi4� <br /> Introduction and Product Performance W °8�;;;a�o��d;,o� <br /> � AAMA Paint & Coating Specifications <br /> The American Architectural Manufacturer's Association (AAMA) is a trade association representing firms engaged in the <br /> manufacture and sale of architectural building components and related products. Voluntary standard have been created to test a <br /> ' product's durability, strength, resistance to environmental degradation and longevity. AAMA has a standard set of stringent <br /> performance tests designed to evaluate high-performance coatings on fenestration products. the quality of these finishes is affected <br /> by the pigment formula as well as the resin used to bind pigment to the substrate surface. Marvin Windows and Door uses an <br /> exceedingly strong fluropolymer resin material with hi-quality complex ceramic pigment mix to create a finish that meets AAMA 2605 <br /> � voluntary performance requirements and test procedures for pigmented organic coatings on extruded aluminum and panels. In <br /> addition, a five-step pre-treatment process ensures thorough, firm bonding between the resin and the extruded aluminum substrate. <br /> The chart below illustrated the difference between the AAMA ratings, from aesthetic changes such as chalking and color retention to <br /> � testing designed to replicate harsh coastal conditions. <br /> AAMA Paint Specifications for Clad Units <br /> South Florida Weathering: <br /> � Spec'rfication Details AAMA 2603 AAMA 2605 <br /> Color Retention 1 yr"Slighf'fade 10 yrs Fade=5 Delta E <br /> I Chalk Resistance 1 yr"SlighY'chalk 10 yrs chalk=8 <br /> Glass Retention no specifcation 10 yrs 50%retention <br /> Erosion Resistance no specifcation 10 yrs 10%loss <br /> Dry Film Thickness 0.8 mils minimum 1.2 mils minimum <br /> ' Pretreatment System Chrome/chrome free Chrome=40 mg/sq ft <br /> Chemical Resistance <br /> Specification Details AAMA 2603 AAMA 2605 <br /> eMuriatic Acid 15 minutes/no attack 15 minutes/no attack <br /> Mortar 24 hours/no attack 24 hours/no attack <br /> Nitric Acid max 5D E units change max 5D E units change <br /> � Detergent 72 hours/no attack 72 hours/no attack <br /> Window Cleaner no specification 24 hours/no attack <br /> Accelerated Testing <br /> � Specification Details AAMA 2603 AAMA 2605 <br /> Salt Spray 1,500 hours 4,000 hours <br /> , Humidity 1,500 hours 4,000 hours <br /> � <br /> � <br /> ' <br /> , <br /> � <br /> � <br /> CHECK MARVIN ONLINE DOCS FOR LATEST VERSION Printed On:Mar 22,2017,11:01 am <br /> � Ver 2015.4 2015-12-21 INTRO/PRODUCT PERFORMANCE-19 19972255 <br /> Marvin Architectural Detail Manual <br />
