The Secret to Maximum UV Resistance: Why Loop Colors Spray Paint Doesn’t Fade Over Time
Are you convinced that red or brightly colored graffiti must fade after a few months in the sun?
We have news for you: three years ago, we changed the rules of the game. Here’s how the Loop Colors formula upgrade protects your pieces from UV rays!
The myth of color fading in graffiti
In the world of graffiti and street art, there’s a fear that has always plagued many artists: seeing their outdoor artwork gradually lose its brilliance and saturation due to exposure to the sun. Traditionally, certain pigments (particularly the red, yellow, and warm range) have always been the “weakest” and most susceptible to the degrading effects of sunlight.
If you’ve used spray cans in the past, you might have been left with the idea that the color was destined to inevitably fade within a short time. But paint technology is making great strides, and today we’re here to shed light on a radical change of direction at Loop Colors.
The Invisible Upgrade: What Happened 3 Years Ago?
Many of our end customers and graffiti artists aren’t aware of this yet, because the best innovations often happen in our research and development labs without making much noise through traditional channels.
Exactly three years ago, Loop Colors implemented a massive improvement in its formula, completely replacing the old standard pigments with a new range of premium, ultra-high UV-resistant pigments.
This technological upgrade targeted the historically most vulnerable colors, introducing unprecedented light stability and color fastness to the graffiti spray market. While cans produced before that date could show the physical limits of old acrylic paints under the blazing sun, the current formula ensures that the paint film maintains its intensity, brilliance, and saturation year after year.
How to recognize the new formula?
The quality and authenticity of Loop Colors are entirely Made in Italy. If you want to be 100% sure you’re testing the power of the new anti-fade formula, just check the bottom of the can: you’ll find the production date printed there. All cans produced in the last three years benefit from this extraordinary molecular improvement.
Loop Colors Technical Features: Designed to Last
- Loop professional spray paint doesn’t just resist sunlight. The new formula integrates perfectly with the features that have made the brand famous among international writers:
- Maximum Coverage and High Solubility: Thanks to the high content of premium pigments, just a few coats are enough to cover any surface, reducing waste and speeding up the process.
- Soft Touch Valve (medium Pressure Technology): Maximum flow control, ultra-fine paint atomization, and zero runs, ideal for both the smallest details and large areas.
- 4 Seasons Technology (Up to -10°C): The paint film dries quickly even in high humidity and maintains its flow even in temperatures as low as -10°C.
- Adhesion and Compatibility: Excellent adhesion to walls, metal, wood, and plastic, and maximum compatibility with other paint brands on the market.
The Importance of Shaking the Can Well
There’s a little “secret of the trade” we’d like to share with you. Precisely because the new Loop Colors formula is rich in heavy, ultra-UV-resistant pigments, shaking the can vigorously before use is essential.
Even though Loop paint guarantees good coverage right from the start, if you don’t shake the can thoroughly, you risk leaving the protective pigments on the bottom of the can.
PAINT to LAST
At Loop Colors, innovation isn’t just about creating vibrant colors, it’s about ensuring those colors survive over time, even under the toughest outdoor conditions.
The upgrade introduced over the last three years represents a major step forward for graffiti and street art culture, offering artists a level of UV resistance and durability that was previously difficult to achieve with traditional spray paints.
For writers, muralists, and street artists who want their work to maintain its original impact for as long as possible, the new Loop Colors formula delivers a reliable, professional-grade solution designed for the real world.
