 | | FIVE STAR RESORT CHOOSES CROWN TRADE CLEAN EXTREME | | | Crown Paints | | 28/07/2008 | | | Over 100 bungalows at Potters Leisure Resort near Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, have been refurbished using Crown Trade Clean Extreme Scrubbable Matt. The interior coating was selected for the five star holiday resort because of its ability to retain an exceptional finish and to further extend the resort’s redecoration cycle.
Crown Trade Clean Extreme Scrubbable Matt was used for the refurbishment of the resort’s most exclusive bungalow accommodation. Each one has been transformed to include contemporary furniture and a flat screen TV. To complement this high specification interior, the maintenance team chose a coating that resists staining and can withstand repeated cleaning to minimise wear and tear.
Commenting on the specification of Crown Trade Clean Extreme, Roy Knights, paint foreman at Potters Leisure Resort, said: “As the only five star holiday resort in the UK, we pride ourselves on delivering an outstanding level of accommodation to guests, so it was crucial to choose the best possible product to create a high quality, durable finish.
“Crown Trade Clean Extreme was the ideal choice as it delivers unparalleled durability, making it easier for our housekeepers to retain a pristine interior, and because the coating is resistant to scrubbing, we will benefit from reduced maintenance bills.”
Clean Extreme Scrubbable Matt was developed for areas of intensive use where wall surfaces will face daily challenges, such as in schools, nurseries, offices, hospitals, leisure facilities and student and housing association accommodation.
The surface retains the ‘newly applied’ appearance, even after repeated scrubbing, as the product has been developed in such a way that the amount of paint sacrificed each time dirt is cleaned off is minimal. Tests have shown that Clean Extreme offers a 400% increase in resistance to wet scrubbing when compared with the loss in paint film thickness of conventional matt emulsion. In trials, the product achieved the very highest rating, Class 1 of ISO 11998, which means that less than five microns of paint film thickness were lost after a painted test panel was subjected to 200 simulated cleaning cycles on a scrub testing machine.
In practice, this means that the formulation offers exceptional durability, dirt resistance and cleanability. Few marks and stains will penetrate the paint surface and most marks can easily be wiped away with water alone. Scrubbing with a cloth and water will remove tougher soiling, and for the most deep-seated stains, cleaning with a mild detergent will eliminate all traces, without risk of burnishing.
Clean Extreme Scrubbable Matt is available in an extensive range of colours, with White and Magnolia ready-mixed, and in 2.5 litre and 5 litre cans.
