Alkyds, the much-trusted coatings of the past were summarily replaced by the superior performance of the polyurethane coatings. The polyurethanes were then supplemented by the polyurethane with clear coat and the polyurethane with UV protector. These coatings promised a twenty-year life and resistance to fading.
