Alternative Color Options for Metal Panels
Textured paint, also known as crinkle paint, is having a significant impact on the metal roofing industry. Textured painted metal will not replace the smooth coated products that have been used for years, but it is an excellent option to consider, and in many ways, it is a better option.
This new, textured finish redirects light for enhanced visual depth, resulting in a series of shifting and shimmering tones. MS Crinkle Finish promises a unique, aesthetic appearance compared to a standard finish.
Formulated with enhanced silicone polyester, MS Crinkle Finish offers enhanced weatherability to resist fading, scratching and chalking. Combine that with the superior sales and technical support you have come to expect from Metal Sales and you have a building envelope that will last for decades and decades.

MS Crinkle Finish has been responsively designed to create a shifting and shimmering effect that mirrors the eye’s natural horizontal motion with the texture. Metal Sales offers a range of color options to fit any project including standard colors such as red, brown, black and charcoal to premium colors like forest green and burnished slate. The coating also features strong color retention that meets current solar reflective (SR) standards for Energy Star™ ratings.
Improvements of textured paint
- Reduced glare. The textured paint greatly reduces the glare that a metal roof can have. This contributes to a more appealing overall appearance.
- Better scratch resistance. Because the metal’s surface is textured, it will resist minor scuffs and scratches.
- Increased traction. If you’ve ever had to walk on a metal roof, you know how difficult it can be to maintain traction depending on the conditions. The textured surface significantly improves traction. This is advantageous to both installers and homeowners.
- Hides under decking imperfections. Because of the reduced glare of the textured metal, any substrate imperfections will be less noticeable.

This textured finish redirects light for enhanced visual depth, resulting in a series of shifting and shimmering tones.
