INDUSTRY PROFILE SKYSCAPES® Basecoat-Clearcoat System
From Sherwin-Williams Aerospace Meets Two SAE AMS 3095 Certifications
New Paint System Saves Up to 30 Percent in Process Time; Also Saves on Materials, Labor, Energy and Much More
SKYscapes® , a new basecoat/clearcoat exterior paint system developed
by Sherwin-Williams Aerospace, now has two complete coating systems – including pretreatment, corrosion protective primer, topcoat and clearcoat – certified with SAE International’s Aerospace Material Specification 3095 (AMS 3095).
The SKYscapes® basecoat/clearcoat exterior paint system delivers faster
color coats dry in approximately two hours vs. six to 10 hours for traditional single-stage paint systems. Its recoat time lasts up to 72 hours, which dramatically reduces the need for sanding between coats. And finally, there is no required baking between topcoat layers so paint facilities, which currently use baking to accelerate the cure cycle, should notice energy savings.
process times, brighter and better hiding colors and easier maintenance repairs versus traditional single-stage aviation paint systems. In fact, it can save up to 30 percent process time. This allows aviation MRO facilities and their paint shops to augment production schedules and turnaround more paint jobs. SKYscapes®
