Understanding the Metal Options:
ColorCote: AlumiGard
At the forefront of pre-painted steel and aluminium roofing and cladding, ColorCote brings AlumiGard a testament to resilience and durability. Crafted with a marine-grade aluminium alloy substrate, AlumiGard is primed with a steadfast polyester coating and adorned with a waterborne acrylic or polyester baked-on top coat. Tailored for the most demanding environments, AlumiGard excels in severe marine conditions and stands strong against acidic exposure in geothermal areas, making it the optimal choice for applications up to the waterline.
ColorCote: MagnaFlow
Addressing the susceptibility of steel roofs to corrosion along cut edges, MagnaFlow from ColorCote takes innovation to new heights. The magnesium-infused coating in MagnaFlow facilitates a 'self-healing' process, where zinc flows over cut edges, creating a protective seal against further corrosion. With superior corrosion resistance, MagnaFlow emerges as the ideal choice for homes situated in challenging coastal environments, offering longevity and durability that go beyond conventional expectations.
ColorCote: ZinaCore
Balancing durability with aesthetic appeal, ColorCote presents ZinaCore, which is ideal for moderate climatic environments. Featuring a hot-dipped aluminium/zinc alloy-coated steel substrate, ZinaCore is adorned with a waterborne or polyester top coat baked on a polyester primer, resulting in an exceptionally durable paint system. Resisting UV damage and maintaining excellent gloss and colour retention, ZinaCore stands out as a premier choice, providing robust protection in regions with fluctuating weather challenges.

Continuous Spouting Maintenance: A Guide to Sustaining Elegance
To keep your continuous spouting in top shape, it's crucial to do regular maintenance and cleaning. Fine Line recognises how important it is to maintain both the look and function of your continuous spouting in Hamilton's changing weather. Here's a guide to help you take care of your investment:
Scheduled Inspections:
Regular inspections are crucial to spotting any potential issues before they escalate. Schedule bi-annual checks, focusing on joints, corners, and seams where wear, rust, or corrosion might start. Also, pay close attention to downspouts to ensure unobstructed water flow.
Gentle Cleaning Practices:
Use a soft brush or sponge for cleaning to avoid surface damage to the spouting material. Steer clear of abrasive cleaners that may compromise protective coatings. Regularly check and remove any debris to prevent clogs and stagnant water, promoting the longevity of your continuous spouting.
Severe Weather Preparedness:
Before severe weather events like tropical cyclones or storms, secure loose components of your continuous spouting to prevent potential damage. After severe weather, conduct thorough inspections for signs of wear or damage, ensuring that your spouting system remains resilient in the face of challenging weather conditions.
By including these maintenance practices in your routine, you not only preserve the elegance of your continuous spouting but also extend its lifespan. This will ensure that your investment continues to showcase its aesthetic appeal while effectively directing rainwater away from your property.
