PercoTop®

For commercial vehiclesFor a good-looking, durable finish

TransportationTrailers & Bodies

For most companies, image and recognition are the cornerstones of their brands. The logo, the livery, the packaging – everything is a customer touch-point. Commercial vehicles function as mobile marketing platforms. At Axalta Coating Systems we understand how important brand and image are to our customers, so we’ve made certain our high-quality commercial vehicle paint system PercoTop® not only looks good but also delivers the colour, performance and reliability they require.

That is why many major manufacturers of commercial vehicles, trailers and truck components have trusted and worked with us for decades. They know PercoTop® is unique and easy to use. The quality is robust and colour matching is accurate, quick and efficient.

Whether it’s a refrigerated box superstructure, a standard trailer, a concrete mixer, a mobile crane, the chassis of an HGV, anything on or behind the cab, PercoTop® gives coaters flexibility in application, brilliance of appearance and the critical performance characteristics necessary to protect vehicle surfaces from weathering, graffiti and corrosion. PercoTop® has the added benefit of being very robust in application – especially on large surfaces or on complex shapes – and dries very quickly. With PercoTop® you don’t just get the paint, but all the knowledge and support, backed by Axalta Coating Systems.

There is no such thing as a standard commercial vehicle or trailer. They come in all shapes and sizes and with all manner of substrates - from aluminium to steel, plastic to glass-reinforced polyester. Yet regardless of the substrate, the finish must not only look uniform, but also dazzle in order to fulfil its marketing role. Whatever the weather, the mechanical stress, the chemical attack, the amount of UV radiation or the degree of use, commercial vehicle coatings have to maintain their excellent finish.

From primers to topcoats, PercoTop® is a complete paint system for commercial vehicle components and trailers that provides the robust, durable protection they need to stay looking good on the road for years. Its outstanding mechanical properties and exceptional colour stability translate into reliable, long-term performance. Whatever the requirements for protection, durability and application, PercoTop® is the right paint system for you.
