Co-extruded cap layer that increases part gloss to a 75-85% level* and offers enhanced scratch resistance.
- Medium Gloss
Co-extruded cap layer that provides a formed part gloss level of 15-20%* and enhanced scratch and mar resistance.
- Scratch-Whitening Resistance
Utilizing automotive industry requirements, this cap layer resists whitening attributed to scratches & gouges.
- Stress-Whitening Resistance
For applications that see heavy blunt-force abuse in assembly or in the field, this cap layer helps resist stress-whitening, or “blushing,” common to dark grey and earth tone colors.
