CloseLikely undetected by the scores of subway passengers that pass by unaware every day, the MTA Subway Signs take advantage of the dual protection of a duplex system of paint over hot-dip galvanized steel. The specifier had problems using paint on this piece in the past, and was pleasantly surprised at the quick turnaround time compared to paint. 7.5 tons of steel tube frames and fasteners were galvanized, then coated for an extra layer of protection. Thousands of people will see these signs everyday, and they will remain corrosion-free and color-matched for decades.
