Vinyl Windows and Doors

Painting Vinyl Windows and Doors

Color on uPVC vinyl window and doors has been the desire of architects, builders and homeowners since its introduction into the building industry.

After years of research and thousands of miles of travel, MGM Industries invested in an automated vacuum coater that successfully paints the profiles of our windows and doors. The coater applies an automotive grade finish that provides the highest quality coverage versus spraying coatings on uPVC.

Until recently vinyl windows have been seen as a low cost and highly durable choice for builders and architects, but were only available in White and Tan. The reason is that uPVC (Unplasticised Polyvinyl Chloride) has a distortion temperature of 140oF. (If the temperature of the PVC rises above 140oF, it will warp and deform) Consequently, dark colors such as bronze have not been an option for vinyl windows because dark colors absorb too much of the radiant energy of the sun, causing warpage.

The advent of “Reflective pigment technology” (RPT) has changed all that. With RPT the whole color pallet has opened up to the vinyl window world. This technology reflects the infra-red spectum of the Sun, which keeps the vinyl from reaching it's distortion temperature.

MGM Industries realized the possibilities of what an industrial grade painted vinyl window product could mean to builders and architects. MGM has developed a totally unique and effective method for painting the high quality vinyl windows they manufacture.

A customized vacuum coater dials in the correct coverage which ensures a paint layer that will not sag and is of sufficient thickness as to optimize the adhesion of the paint to the substrate. (If the paint is not thick enough when it is applied, it will not stick.) Finally each painted uPVC vinyl product is inspected and given a 10 year warranty against industry accepted peeling and fading of paint.

We are so confident in our painted vinyl windows and doors that we provide a 10 year warranty against industry accepted fading and peeling of paint.

Call your sales rep and ask about custom colors.

All of our products will ultimately be offered in exterior colors and we will offer new colors as the market dictates. Lead on custom colors vary, depending if we have to send the color for matching. Please expect at least three weeks additional lead time for custom colors.



Please note that the color depicted on your computer screen may differ significantly to the color of the window. Please request a color sample for actual comparison.

Bronze

MGM Bronze color

RGB: 022, 022, 023 /// LAB: 4, 0, -1 /// CNYK: 74, 68,65,83
Our most popular painted color. If your bidding a commerical job that needs a dark bronze finish, look no further. This color is also similiar to the bronze color that is a staple product in the aluminum industry. Now you can have your color and eat it too! That is, you can have the dark rich bronze color and get a window that will be extremely energy efficient. The color has just a hint of red in it, which gives it a deep luxurious look.

Black

MGM Black color

RGB: 022, 022, 023 /// This has actually been quite a popular request since we developed it. It has refective pigments in it, so the heat gain will be less then that which will cause the vinyl to distort.

Earthtone

MGM Earthtone color

RGB: 162, 149, 134 /// LAB: 64, 5, 11 /// CNYK: 35, 37,46,2
This color is the same as our standard Earthtone which is available in our solid vinyl color. We color matched it and it is now available as an exterior paint.

Eggshell

MGM Eggshell color

RGB: 215, 205, 184 /// LAB: 84, 2, 13 /// CNYK: 13, 16,27,0
Color has been enhanced to emphasize the yellow appeal (for this webpage presentation). Actual color is a beautiful pale yellow. This color is also paintable. So if you want to change the color in the field, this is the finish to order. Ask a salesman for more information.

Beige/Tan

MGM Beige/Tan color

RGB: 190, 183, 161 /// LAB: 75, 1, 13 /// CNYK: 25, 23,37,0
This is our standard beige that is available in our solid vinyl color. We color matched it so now you can order a Tan/Beige exterior paint and have our standard Euro-white interior. (On some browsers this has a greenish color that is not representative of the actual color.)

White

MGM White color

RGB: 227, 230, 227 /// LAB: 91, -2, 1 /// CNYK: 10, 5,8,0
This is our standard Euro-White color.
