Our tough VemaCoate epoxy finish can be suppied on most of our handles. It comes in a variety of colors to compliment cabinet and panel colors. The finish resists humidity and salt spray – it can take more abuses than anodized finishes. Unlike anodizing, VemacoateTM has superior color retention.
Other advantages:
- Electrostatically applied finish
- Temperature resistant to 300° F
- Protects handles from oxidation
