PPG iSense® Speciality White

Make color and designs pop

PPG iSense® White coatings


Realize vibrant designs

PPG iSense® White base coatings are ideal for creating dramatic graphic designs—from clean, sophisticated, soft whites to the brightest colors that boldly pop when compared to ink alone.

Rely on proven performance

PPG iSense White base coatings maximize opacity to mask the can’s metallic sheen and create a perfect foundation for graphics. They enable more vivid, truer colors, better contrast on labels and maximize colors available at the decorator compared to ink only application.
