Polyethylene is by far the most common material used in rotational moulding, but it has traditionally suffered from the disadvantage that it cannot be reliably painted. The same difficulty applied to polypropylene. Although these polymers can be coloured using a tinted raw material, good control of final appearance has been impossible, precluding their use in very many applications. Now tecni-industry have solved the problem. You can now have any of the following paint schemes on polyethylene and polypropylene rotomouldings:

- High gloss solid colour, pearlescent or metallic finish applied to smooth surfaced mouldings

- Textured satin finish applied to smooth surfaced mouldings

- Soft touch satin finish applied to smooth surfaced mouldings

- High gloss solid colour, pearlescent or metallic fisnish applied to textured mouldings.
