Wilsonart® Decorative Metals (Types 401, 414, 416, 418 and 419) Technical Data 1. Distributor and/or manufacturer Wilsonart International 2400 Wilson Place P.O. Box 6110 Temple, Texas 76503-6110 Phone: (254) 207-7000; (800) 433-3222 Fax: (254) 207-2384 Web Site: www.wilsonartlaminate.com 2. Product Description Recommended Uses: Wilsonart Decorative Metals are designed for vertical interior or ceiling applications where a special accent is required or a special mood is desired. The surface of Decorative Metals is that of fine finished metal. The genuine metal material is appropriate for vertical areas in retail facilities, hotel and office lobbies, theaters and restaurants, where its special eye-catching properties add a definite prestigious appeal. Decorative Metals add a visual sense of lightness when used as inserted accent banding in massive casework. These materials also can add a bright touch when used as cladding or accent trim in custom furniture, especially in combination with high gloss solid color laminates, Wilsonart® Custom Edges or Wilsonart® Gibraltar® Solid Surfacing. A-Look Mirror Quality Decorative Metals are shatterproof, lightweight and unbreakable. Non-distorted mirror reflective qualities make A-Look Decorative Metals perfect for ceilings, walls, columns, safety mirrors and display cases. Anodized A-Look HPA 6251-EX is recommended for exterior and high humidity areas. Product Composition: • Type 401: A-Look Mirror Quality Decorative Metal panels consist of two thin skins of aluminum alloy continuously bonded to a thermoplastic core, then electroplated in chrome. Anodized A-Look with EX designation has a protective resin layer to prevent oxidization in exterior applications. • Type 414: Galvalume® Steel. A 26-gauge steel sheet featuring a Galvalume® finish. The steel is coated with an aluminum-zinc alloy, and then protected with a clear acrylic, coating both sides. The metal features a decorative faceted finish on both sides – usable 2 sides (protective film applied one side only). Pattern variation can occur within sheet and from sheet to sheet. Steel fabrication tools, saw blades and router bits are required. • Type 416: Artisan Group non-anodized aluminum alloy panels feature textured designs in five patterns applied from border to border, creating a dimensional appearance. Panels are coated with a clear resin to prevent oxidation and protect the beauty of the design. • Type 418: Decorative aluminum (Types 419 & Type 416) bonded to a phenolic backer for fabrication following HPDL techniques for flat surfaces only. Do NOT use as an edge trim or for strips. When radius bending is required, Type 419 is recommended. • Type 419: A solid sheet of aluminum is produced with a decorative, anodized finish and color on one side. The back side is prepared to facilitate bonding to a suitable substrate. (Keep this surface free of grease, oil or other contaminants.) Basic Limitations: All decorative metals are designed for interior vertical applications. Only Anodized A-Look with an "EX" designation is recommended for protected exterior applications. Reflective value and metal color may vary depending on type of lighting used. Fluorescent, incandescent and daylight produce slight color variations. The American Architectural Manufacturer’s Association (AAMA) has issued the “Voluntary Specification for Anodized Architectural Aluminum” AAMA611-98. The maximum allowable color variation is established as Delta E CMC 5.0 or less for anodized aluminum produced from one coil.

Installation: Fabrication and Assembly Recommendations For comprehensive fabrication instructions for Metal types 401, 414, 416, 418 and 419, consult the Decorative Metals Fabrication Manual, BR0406. Fabrication and installation of A-Look Mirror Quality Decorative Metals is easy with tools and machinery normally associated with laminate, metal or woodworking shops. They are easily applied by using a low- or non-shrink silicone sealant and low-modulus contact cement, or a very high-bond type of double-stick foam tape. Please refer to the manual for comparison to other reflective mirror materials for equivalent rigidity and general properties. Some points to keep in mind when using A-Look Decorative Metals include: 1. Use on vertical surfaces only. Horizontal work surfaces are not recommended. 2. A-Look Decorative Metals can be formed using standard roll bending equipment. 3. The protective film should be removed when installation is complete. If the film is left in place after installation, exposure to direct sunlight for a prolonged period may cause a paste residue and create other problems. 4. For exterior applications, the edge of Anodized A-Look EX Decorative Metals should be covered or sealed with aluminum or stainless steel molding (such as H or J mold) using a sealant that does not contain acid or a strong alkaline solution. Interior applications can be butt jointed. Caution: Check adhesive carefully prior to application. When adhesive is used, due to the inherent thermal expansion and contraction ratios, A-Look Decorative Metals may pull toward the base material after installation. It is suggested that you use VHB double-stick foam tape, or a low-modulus silicone or rubberizing contact cement. 5.

Visual surface defects are measured according to T.A.P.P.I. T564 sp-96, Transparent Chart for the Estimation of Defect Size. A visual defect means spots, indents, etc. that are 0.8mm(2) or more within 4 square feet, or 2 defects each having an area of 0.4mm(2) or more within 4 square feet. Further the visual defect should be at least 12” apart. 6. Maintenance • Type 401: A-Look Mirror Quality Decorative Metal For A-Look Mirror Quality Decorative Metals, household cleaners, ammoniated detergents or glass cleaners may be used. • Types 414 & 416 For Galvalume® Steel and the Artisan Group, use only glass cleaners that are free of ammonia and petroleum products. 409F Glass & Surface Cleaner and warm water with a mild dish soap solution is also recommended for cleaning. Do NOT use cleaners that contain abrasives, acids or alkalis as they will mar the surface. Do NOT clean metal face with solvents, paint thinner or adhesive remover. After washing, always wipe the surface completely dry with a soft, clean cloth. • Types 418 & 419: It is recommended that anodized aluminum surfaces be cleaned with 409I Glass & Surface Cleaner and warm water with a mild soap such as those used for hands or dishes. Household cleaners, non-ammoniated detergents, or glass cleaners may be used. Stubborn stains may be removed with a thin, clean oil and a dry cloth. After cleaning, always wipe the surface completely dry with a soft, clean cloth. Do NOT use cleaners that contain abrasives, acids or alkalis, as they will mar the surface. Ammoniated detergents or petroleum-based cleaners should not be used to clean anodized aluminum surfaces. Do NOT clean metal face with solvents, paint thinner or adhesive remover. Refer to BRO406, Decorative Metals Fabrication Manual, for adhesive removal recommendations. 7.
