What is so-called "most popular commercial trick" when buying steel in China?

Do you want your products be like above pictures with a poor quality? The answer is absolutely not !At present, some factories in China could produce PPGI with 8g/㎡ zinc coating only!The painting quality they used is quite bad as well. Therefore, top paint falls off or destroyed by weather only after 6 months since using. Could you imagine that?One of Mesco customers sent these pictures to us and complained about the poor quality of the painting, which he bought it with a very low price.After being cheated, he chose to believe and cooperate with Mesco from then on.Because he does know that, MESCO ONLY PROVIDES GOOD QUALITY WITH THE MOST COMPETITIVE PRICE. Knowledge of the paint: -- Polyester Good adhesion, wide range in formability and outdoor durability, and medium chemical resistance. Service life 7-10 years. --  Silicon Modified Polyester The coating film has good hardness, abrasion resistance and heat resistance, as well as good external durability and non-powderability, and gloss retention and flexibility are limited. The service life is 10-15 years. -- High Durable Polyester Excellent UV resistance, high durability, and its main properties are between polyester and fluorocarbon. The service life is 10-12 years. --  Polyvinylidene Fluoride It has good formability and color retention, excellent outdoor durability and powdering, solvent resistance, and limited color. The service life is 20-25 years.
