The ROWALID^® TIM product group from the comprehensive ROWA Lack range is an excellent extension of the standard portfolio whenever high-quality metallic effects are to be achieved, e.g. on PVC-coated fabric. Silver-colored effects are required for most applications, but gold tones can also be made possible. This requires formulating the lacquers on the basis of specifically selected binders and effect pigments in order to achieve an excellent result after the lacquering process in terms of color tone, opacity, brilliance, surface texture and gloss. Gray or yellow or orange colored base materials are usually used to enhance the silver or gold effect. New water-based lacquer systems have now been developed in addition to the established solvent-based and, on request, SVHC-free products such as ROWALID^® TIM 95221.

ROWALID^® TIM 95371W, for example, is a silver-colored variant based on a water-based standard tarpaulin lacquer. The also silver-colored new product ROWALID^® TIM 95400W is based on a higher-quality fluoropolymer lacquer and is consequently suitable for more demanding applications.

The solvent-based as well as the water-based ROWALID^® TIM effect lacquer systems can both be individually optimized to meet a wide range of properties, depending on the customer’s requirements. Generally, all lacquers belonging to the ROWALID^® TIM product group already provide low soiling tendency and excellent cleaning characteristics.
