This refers to a specific product category available at a major home improvement retailer. It is a roll of pre-painted aluminum used to cover and protect exterior trim on residential and commercial buildings. A common application is wrapping wooden window or door frames to prevent weathering and rot.
Utilizing this material offers several advantages. It provides a durable, low-maintenance exterior finish that resists chipping, cracking, and peeling. The pre-finished nature eliminates the need for painting, saving time and resources. Historically, wood trim required frequent repainting and was susceptible to damage from the elements and pests, making aluminum coil a practical alternative.
