AAMA 2603, 2604, 2605 Now Available

All three specifications are now available for purchase in the FGIA online store. This update provides additional guidance on the pretreatment conversion coatings. The trio was last updated in 2022.

The architectural community has recognized the following standards for testing and performance of organic coatings on architectural aluminum extrusions and panels:

• , Voluntary Specification, Performance Requirements and Test Procedures for Pigmented Organic Coatings on Aluminum Extrusions and Panels (with Coil Coating Appendix)
• , Voluntary Specification, Performance Requirements and Test Procedures for High Performance Organic Coatings on Aluminum Extrusions and Panels (with Coil Coating Appendix)
• , Voluntary Specification, Performance Requirements and Test Procedures for Superior Performing Organic Coatings on Aluminum Extrusions and Panels (with Coil Coating Appendix)

“These three documents describe the ‘good, better, best’ category of aluminum finishes,” said Rich Rinka, FGIA Staff Liaison for the FGIA AMC Finishes Committee. “They are intended to assist the architect, owner and contractor to specify and obtain factory-applied organic coatings which will provide and maintain a good level of performance in terms of film integrity, exterior weatherability and general appearance over a period of many years.”

These standards, as well as other documents available from FGIA, may be purchased from the online store at the discounted member rate of $25 or the non-member price of $70.
