WHAT IS POWDERCOATING?
Powder coating is the technique of applying dry paint to metals. In Powder Coating, the powdered paint is electrostatically charged and sprayed onto the metal in a kiln at very high temperatures. Powder coating is simply the colouring of the aluminium.

Are your windows and/or doors made from Aluminium?
If so, your new screens will match the existing colour.
Are your windows and/or doors made from Timber?
If so, this is a little more difficult to match due to the fact that timber windows are painted with a ‘wet paint’ (which is a standard house paint) compared to aluminium windows which are powder coated. A powder coating colour chart comprises approx. 30 colours compared to a wet paint colour chart comprising over 100 colours. The basic colours such as Black, White, Primrose, Stone Beige, Brown, Hawthorn Green, etc. in most cases will match exactly.
My timber windows do not match any colour on this website. What can I do?
If you can supply the colour name and/or code of the wet paint colour we can check our colour charts to see if the colour is available. If the colour is not available we can contact Dulux to enquire which colour would match the closest.
MAINTENANCE
Sydney Fly Screens proudly use Dulux powder coating on our aluminium windows and doors. Dulux powder coating are manufactured in Australia and engineered to meet the tough and varied demands of the Australian climate. To maintain the decorative and protective properties of the powder coated finish, Sydney Fly Screens recommends cleaning at least every 6 months. In harsh, industrial, or coastal environments, more frequent cleaning is necessary.
