Hi guys.

I am having a little difficulties finding Duratec sunshield clear in Europe. It seems to be great product but apparently hard to buy (normally i am good at finding stuff via google but with this i am in dead end. Either suppliers went bust or they dont stock this item).

Any one had more luck than me?

Thanks a lot

For what it's worth, this is a test panel I made to see how well the Duratec Sunshield stood up to UV.




As you can see, not great. This went from a full gloss to what you see here in less than 12 months. Given, the Australian summer sun is about the worst you're going to find anywhere, but the fact that it looks this bad after less than 12 months is very concerning. I would not be confident at all that the surface would hold up more than a few years no matter where you are in the world.

This was sprayed as an in-mould coating, which is why it has fisheyes and brush strokes. These areas are actually where the Duratec is thickest, indicating that the coating itself just can't cope with the sun, rather than the resin underneath.
