have one close by. In my relatively rural low population density area I’ve
have access to 2 or 3 powder coaters within 50 miles so I would make the naive
assumption that there are a lot of them out there. It’s very affordable.
They normally charge by the pound in my experience. They might have to
acid wash (or ??) the pieces first but they would know all of that and would be
able to tell you how well it would do in the sunlight etc.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

high-end client for whom we are installing a 12 kWp system on an essentially
flat roof. The terrain slopes down from the street to the house (and there is an
additional 2.5 deg slope on the roof in the same direction), hence making the
array visible at some point away from the house going towards the street. The
client has asked us to paint the back tilt-legs and rails of the array the same
color as the PV module frames. The reason being the legs and rails are clear
anodized (ProSolar) and the modules are black anodized (BP SX3200). We are
talking about only the back of one row, as the front of the row is so low as to

I’m hoping that a quick TSP wash and rinse, followed by a primer
appropriate for Al, followed by a high quality exterior paint. Any suggestions

with their charge controller on a battery based system. The lack of an accurate
