4. Metal roofing trim shall match the color of the roof and shall be
factory made from 26-gauge Kynar 500 painted Galvalume sheet
steel.
5. Trim includes panel ridge caps, hip caps, eave "J" trim, splice
channels, rake trim, roof peak cap and corner trim as applicable
for the model selected. Trim may need to be field cut to length.
Please refer to the installation drawings for additional information
and detail.

3. The steel is then immersed in a liquid epoxy and coated through
an electro-deposition process (E-coat), this is coated both inside
and out to a uniform cover of 0.7-0.9 mils. The E-coat totally
encapsulates the part for superior corrosion protection.
4. The parts are then coated with a color coat of TGIC polyester
powder and then one clear coat for a final finish thickness of 8 to
12 mils.
*
