How to Repair and Recoat Metal Cladding the Right Way
Identifying Common Cladding Problems
Metal cladding can develop corrosion, dents, scratches and colour fading over time. Addressing issues early preserves the building’s performance and appearance.
Preparing the Surface for Recoating
Clean thoroughly and remove any failing coatings. Corroded areas must be treated, and damaged sections may need filling before sanding smooth.
Selecting a Suitable Topcoat
Choose coatings designed for external exposure. Modern cladding paints offer good weather resistance and long term durability.
Achieving a Professional Finish
Apply thin coats and avoid overworking the surface. Spraying produces a high quality finish on large areas but rollers also work well on smaller projects.
