Performance Coatings Through Science
Armorix Inc. has developed a coating which exhibits, not only faux-rock appearance and texture, but also shows excellent longevity in application. AEONIC is our new, high performing coating that produces a textured matte finish, with gloss readings near zero. These characteristics, along with its infinite pot life and fast drying times makes AEONIC a superior choice in faux finish coatings.
Real world applications of similar faux finish coatings do not stand up to their environment. This results in a faded appearance and damaged finishes. AEONIC has been tested against competitive products in the industry and proves to outlast the competition.
With many faux finishes, damage occurs to the factory product during transportation and installation. This can lead to high replacement costs and a sub-standard product for the end user. The high hardness of AEONIC prevents scratching and marring caused by conditions typically seen in transport and installation.
Once the faux finish is applied and the product installed, competitive products have shown a diminished appearance due to exposure to UV light and humidity. This results in chalking, yellowing and fading. Testing, using AEONIC compared against competitive products, shows that AEONIC is able to outperform by its ability to maintain the factory finish.
We also found that many finishes, currently used in the market, lose their factory appearance due to dirt adhering to the surface of the coating. This occurs because of the rough, porous surface of the coating, resulting in a high susceptibility for dirt pick up. AEONIC provides the rock-like texture and appearance, while still maintaining excellent dirt pick up resistance, resulting in an everlasting factory finish.
AEONIC is truly a remarkable product which has been tested to show excellent resilience and durability, while maintaining a pristine faux finish for the end user.
AEONIC cures to a perfect ultra matte finish at viewing angles from 20° to 90° giving the perfect natural appearance. In addition to the natural looking surface is a surface that feels like a stone whether natural or cast. The extremely low gloss and high hardness gives life to your faux finish. AEONIC truly will make your faux finish real.
The hardness of AEONIC is significantly higher than conventional coatings and is even higher than most industrial finishes. This high standard of hardness is key to preventing scratch damage. AEONIC is also resistant to both marring and burnishing caused by rubbing or micro scratches, similar to damage that could occur during shipping. AEONIC maintains it enamel like surface even after exposure to high humidity and temperatures.
AEONIC has been exposure to over 5000 hours of accelerate weathering and shown superior weather resistance over competitive products. AEONIC has not shown any chalking, cracking, blistering, peeling or yellowing in exterior weathering, AEONIC will extend the service life of any exterior faux finish.
AEONIC exhibits extremely flat finishes without an affinity to collect dirt. A build up of dirt can diminish the factory finish, and compromise the look of the faux finish, resulting in the need for professional cleaning or complete product replacement. Additionally AEONIC is able to maintain outstanding dirt pickup resistance after years of weathering to due to its superior UV resistance. AEONIC finishes are inherently self-cleaning. With AEONIC the surface is then rinsed clean by rain as the water flows across the surface.
