Achieving the look of weather-aged metal, Precoat Metals employed a rotogravure printing process to coat the metal. The process involves multiple passes to generate the intended pattern and color effect. Fluropon coatings were used for all three passes: the dark brown basecoat, followed by the lighter brown ink pattern, and topped with a protective clear coat. Once finished, the metal was fabricated into PAC-CLAD wall panels for the Freight Yard apartments’ distinctive exteriors.
