Our Double Barrier Coating
Our HCR® (High Corrosion Resistance) double-barrier coatings offer superior protection with a double barrier. First plated with a zinc base coat and finished with a durable top coat, they’re engineered to hold up to the harshest conditions. Tested and recognized for use in ground contact pressure treated lumber for exterior, freshwater general construction applications (e.g., AWPA UC1-UC4A, UCFA).
DID YOU KNOW?
Some competitors don’t actually test their coatings. They rely on data from their paint company before it makes it onto their screws.
