prepainted
Colored before installation
Prepainted describes something that comes already painted from the manufacturer, requiring no additional finishing by the buyer or installer.
The term appears most often with building materials and industrial products: prepainted steel panels, prepainted aluminum siding, prepainted trim.
The factory finish is typically more durable and uniform than field-applied paint.
