Flexible Coatings

Flexible coatings for maximized performance and durability

For rubber applications like EPDM rubber shaped to be used as seals, PPG has designed flexible coatings specifically designed to be used as adhesion promotors and topcoats.

Our adhesion promotors are designed to provide a uniform surface for enhanced adhesion to the substrate and maximize topcoat performance. Our topcoats provide UV durability to protect and retain product appearance and function, noise resistance, heat resistance, abrasion resistance. Our topcoats also provide heat protection for these sensitive parts.

Flexible coatings benefits:

  • Reduced friction
  • Noise suppression
  • Prevention of sticking
  • Protection against weathering for rubber sealing systems

Flexible coatings solutions for rubber applications including:

  • Door frame sealing systems
  • Sunroof sealing systems
  • Hood/deck lid/lift gate sealing systems
  • Glass run sealing systems
