According to the National Coil Coating Association, “Architectural metal coatings comprise two main coating types: coil coatings and extrusion coatings. Coil coatings are applied to coiled sheets of metal before it is formed, while extrusion coatings are spray applied after the aluminum extrusion has been formed. These coatings are used to finish metal building products such as wall panels, curtain walls, roofing, and metal facades
