RainShadow...The Natural Rainscreen
Finishes
Richlite Rainshadow... The Natural RainScreen has a matte, velvety mill finish. No sanding or sealing to the face or edges is required for installation, and most panels can be cut and fixed on site.
RainShadow is a through-color solid panel. Graffiti and deep scratches can easily be sanded from the product. Richlite is a tough product that can withstand most wear and tear not offered by cement board, or metal - it won't rust or crack. Over time, Richlite panels "Patina" or deepen in color, evening out to a smooth, rich, velvety finish.
Suspension systems are not required to be provided with panels and are not sold by Richlite. Suspension systems are, however, available through Richlite Distributors or direct from suspension suppliers. Blind fastening is not currently recommended by Richlite. While Aluminum suspension systems are the most commonly accepted, adjustable galvanized systems and Richlite furring are acceptable substitutes. Color matched stainless steel fasteners can be sourced from Richlite Distributors or independently sourced. For more installation guidance, Find Richlite.
