Independent Lab Tests
Permanent Painting has independent testing performed on its products to verify certain qualities and characteristics. DL Laboratories (located in Brooklyn, New York) is considered one of the best independent, accredited testing laboratories in the nation. They were selected by Permanent Painting to conduct product testing, the results of which are provided below.
A key factor in choosing a painting product for your home is its ability to breathe, or allow water vapor to pass through the paint. According to DL Laboratories, the water vapor permeance or breathability of our permanent paint is exceptional. We are extremely proud that we have been able to achieve this level of breathability and at the same time pass the rigorous 98 mile per hour wind driven rain test.
