How is it Coated? Water never touches the wood - oil primer to seal. High quality alkyd primer is the first application, followed by a no VOC 100% acrylic topcoat. TiO2 Titanium White trim boards uses one of the most durable exterior coatings designed for wood substrate available. A topcoat, while recommended, is not required for one year. Why is an oil primer and latex top coat system better than two coats of latex or two coats of oil? Water never touches the raw wood - no grain raising or grain swelling, better long-term adhesion. The TiO2 coating system provides genuine long-term protection for the substrate - oil primers by themselves, do not. Why is TiO2 better than other trim products? Longer lasting - true exterior topcoat versus multiple coats of primer. Product is durable enough to be used on the exterior and beautiful enough to use on the interior.
