Aluminum profiles can be protected from weathering through the application of different types of paints. These include: 1) Powder Coating, which provides a durable and weather-resistant finish. 2) Anodizing, a process that increases the thickness of the natural oxide layer on aluminum, enhancing its resistance to corrosion. 3) Liquid Coatings, such as acrylic or polyester-based paints, which offer a range of colors and finishes. 4) Fluorocarbon Paints, known for their excellent resistance to UV rays and weathering. Each type has its own advantages and is chosen based on the specific requirements for durability, appearance, and environmental conditions.
