Metal, Stone, Sand, and More: Durable Planter Finishes for Any Design

At Planters Unlimited, we pride ourselves on providing custom large commercial planters that meet our clients' needs, including providing them with a variety of industrial-grade, exotic finishes and textures for our fiberglass outdoor planters of any size and style. In this post, learn about each of these quality finishes, and how they can provide you with the look you want, the longevity you need, and the cost your budget requires. 

REAL METAL, ARMORECOAT FINISH 

Our ArmoreCoat finish is a real metal coating that we provide as a finish option for our fiberglass planters. This finish, unique to Planters Unlimited, is available in aluminum, copper, bronze, corten steel, and brass—each of which ages over time for that characteristic tarnished look. (To prevent this process, we also offer a clear coat finish as an option.) Planters with these modern live metal finishes are less expensive than metal planters, not to mention much lighter in weight, and their fiberglass base makes them long-lasting and durable.

AUTOMOTIVE-GRADE POLANE® PAINT 

The automotive-grade Sherwin Williams paint we use at Planters Unlimited is available in over 20 color shades*, ranging from warm neutrals to bright hues. This industrial-grade Polane® paint is also available in four textured finishes—making it easy to find the perfect look for your small and large commercial planters. The paint won't scratch or chip over time, even in freezing or high-heat conditions, and is available in gloss, semi-gloss, matte, and sand finishes. 

High-Gloss, Semi-Gloss, Matte, and Sand 

Unlike other commercial-grade matte finishes on the market that have a somewhat "orange peel" texture, our matte finish is perfectly smooth and utterly beautiful. Our semi-gloss finish is perfect for resisting scratches, dirt, and fingerprints on outdoor planters. Our chic high-gloss finish is ideal for complementing an ultra-modern design plan. And our popular sand finish creates a realistic, natural-looking stone texture for planters. 

Metallic High Gloss 

Metallic high gloss colors that look like real metal are also available in this long-lasting, highly durable paint. Silver, copper, dark bronze, and gray are all color options. 

*Custom colors are available with a setup fee per color (regardless of planter quantity). You can either select a Sherwin Williams color or send us a color swatch, which we will match as closely as possible.
