Vindex™ is our premium finish, available in both interior and exterior formulas, each tailored for its specific environment. Both versions deliver the same exceptional benefits, providing unmatched protection, durability, and a flawless appearance. Whether for interior or exterior use, Vindex™ ensures superior performance and long-lasting results.

Defend with Confidence

Drawing its name from the Latin words for 'defender' and 'protector,' Vindex™ exemplifies superior durability and seamless substrate adhesion, maintaining an ultra-thin tolerance within just 0.5mm.

ENHANCED DURABILITY

Vindex™ dramatically improves adhesion and elasticity, ensuring that if impacted, the surface is more prone to dent rather than crack or chip.

SMOOTH FINISH

Each product receives two rounds of finish application, sanding, and polishing to ensure a smooth finish and minimal chalky residue.

OPTIMAL COVERAGE

Effectively conceals imperfections such as darker fibers, joints, and raised grains.

INCREASED ELASTICITY

Vindex™ boasts 73% greater elasticity compared to previous coatings, reducing the risk of chipping damage.

IMPROVED PAINTABILITY

Enhanced to better receive water-based paints resulting in increased water and weather resistance.

1.

SURFACE PREPARATION

The substrate is cleaned of any impurities and completely dried to prep for optimal coating adhesion.

2.

VINDEX™ COATING APPLICATION

The first protective layer is meticulously applied in a thin, full-coverage coat.

3.

CURING

The product then enters the curing oven, setting the stage for the product’s hardened surface, improved adhesion, moisture resistance, and smooth appearance.

4.

SANDING & POLISHING

After curing, the surface is lightly sanded to remove any imperfections, removing the chalky residue and ensuring a smooth base for the next layer.

5.

Repeat Steps 2-4 to ensure optimal thinness and a flawless finish.

Exterior products receive exterior Vindex™, followed by an additional latex paint coat.

6.

QUALITY INSPECTION

CTI conducts rigorous inspections at each touchpoint throughout the application process to guarantee the highest quality. Any detected imperfections are meticulously corrected to meet our exacting standards.
