1. When colour matching on white (00E55) is critical, it is important that the material is purchased from the same production batch.
2. These numbers are for guidance only, as the colours vary slightly from the British Standard.
3. Within 1.5 miles of shoreline.
* Additional building colours available from Dobel.
 
Substrate: DOBEL 200 EXTERIOR is available on Hot Dipped Zinc Galvanised Steel to BS EN 10142 :1991.
 
Overpainting of the underside of lapped edges, together with the exposed cut edge, may be advisable for some severe industrial, costal and marine environments; as in some conditions the substrate properties are included in the total sheet life.
 
The standard reverse coating, in specific instances, may well have a longer period to first maintenance than shown in the above table.
