Beacon uses a multi-step process to clean and prepare the materials for coating. Michael Imparato was the head of the
company before it was bought out by Hubbell. He is now the chief Marketing Consultant. He is an expert on their
process. As the purpose of this coordination effort is to attempt to have paint on the lights and signs that will look the
same in ten years, I will just include Michael in this email. IF it works out that we cannot coordinate this, just let me
know. Maybe some conversation between you guys might be useful to determine if this will work or not. We are in no
way wanting any party to divulge proprietary information or anything that they feel should be kept confidential.

We have never had a fading issue with the powder coating on our products. We have installed signage at Jonathan’s
Landing over a year ago and it is pristine. Perhaps you could ask Beacon the type powder coatings process they use and
which materials are applied to their products.

Subject: RE: Green Colors
The concern is more focused on the colors matching over time.
Beacon Products (www.beaconproducts.com) sells street lighting and were originally in the coatings business. We have
visited some of their installations and their coating process is unusually good. The Town is interested in the colors having
the same fading characteristics. Although, the lights they coat don’t seem to fade, even after 10 years. I don’t know if
the quantity of this order will create an excessive additional cost to use another power coating product.
Limited Warranty (Finish):
Beacon Products warrants its Beacote-V (AAMA 2604) and Beacote-X (AAMA 2605) paint finishes, to the original purchaser, for 5 years
(AAMA 2604) and 10 years (AAMA 2605) after date of production, when properly installed, maintained and appropriately specified. The
customer shall then notify Beacon Products within 10 working days of observing any defects, other than normal wear and tear, gloss/color
retention, as determined by the manufacturers published specifications. We will repair, or at our option, replace the defective finish if it exhibits
cracking, peeling, excessive fading or corrosion defects during the warranty period.

The components are quoted to be powder coated. In our painting process, we use Mathews Polyurethane Acrylic
Enamel, which can be cross matched with a Sherwin-Williams paint product.

Jerry,
Do you use a powder coat process or traditional paint process? Do you use Sherman-Williams Products?

We can match nearly any green, but the three greens we have to offer are no additional charge. A custom green will be
an additional cost. I will have the 3 green colors sent and you can tell me how you wish to proceed.

Jerry,
Please respond to the Town Consulting Underground Engineer's below email. The Town wants the signage project to match the
light/poles project colors as nearly as possible.
Thanks,
Bill

I am of the understanding at this point that they are powder coating.

Danny, do you know the process the sign company uses, is it powder coating or
liquid. If it is liquid, we cannot help them, they can probably use match to the
chips.
Most sign guys use a Mathews mixing system in house that will get very close.
If it is powder, it will be a Sherwin Williams Super Durable series.
Sincerely,
Michael Imparato

Tony/Michael,
Gulf Stream wants information on the Beacon green colors that are available.
They will likely have their street sign folks paint their signs with the same
paint so the lights and the signs weather together.
Can I get samples of the Green Colors (both smooth and textured finishes). After
verifying the color is what they want, I will request the MFG info so the sign
company can order the paint. I understand that your process is likely superior
and the results may not be the same, but at least we will be as close as
5
possible.

Please provide me with the name of the "green" to be used on the street light
and poles. It seems people want the street signs the exact same color.
