AREAS OF APPLICATION: Glass facades/ Glass roofs, Window panels/glass doors, Frosted

glass, Decorative glass, Glass shower cabins, Automobile glass, all exterior glasses,

architectural glasses, Solar PV & Thermal Panels are some of the areas where this material

can be applied.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

Mixing/Dilution: No mixing or dilution of the material is required. The material can

de applied directly as delivered from original packaging.

Cleaning of the Glass Surface: Prior to application it must be ensured that the glass

surface is free from all loose particles/ dust etc. If the glass surface is very dirty or

oily (Fingerprints/Stains) it must be cleaned with a cleaner (detergent

wash/acetone). If glass has been stored over a longer period of time, it must be

cleaned e.g. a glass washing line. That the glass surface is clean and completely dry,

should be ensured, if necessary, it should be wiped with little acetone.

Application Conditions: Ambient temperature: Coating can be applied in ambient

temperature conditions (i.e. 10 Deg C to 40 Deg C). In this case, drying time would be

around 3 hours. Humidity level: 60% to 80%. Deviating conditions can influence the

formation of hydrophobic effect and drying time. Coating should be applied and dried

in a dust free environment, if possible, in clean room conditions.

Application of coating solution: Small quantity of the material has to be applied on

the Glass Surface (Approximately about 15 ml/m2, the exact amount need to be

determined on site by a simple Roll –Off Test). Material can be applied by Spraying,

Brushing, Rolling, Dipping or Smearing using soft cloth/tissue paper/sponge. It is

recommended to apply the material in small sections for efficient coating. That the

glass surface is saturated with coating solution needs to be ensured.

Curing: The coating should be allowed to dry naturally for about 3 hours or the

coating may be dried by placing the glass at ambient temperature of 80 to 125 Deg C.

If drying process is natural and if the coating, due to different climatic conditions,

does not dry up even after about 3 hrs, then it needs to be wiped off/ polished until

it completely dries out.

Polishing: The material once applied need to be polished in circular motion using

clean & dry soft cloth/tissue paper. This can be done by polishing/ rubbing in circular

motions until it is completely rubbed off/dries out. Polishing the material at least

once is recommended in order to ensure the quality of the surface.

Test of Coating: Once coated, performance can be tested by pouring some water on

the coated panels. If coating is done properly, water should form droplets and roll-

off the glass surface and should not spread out into an uniform film.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE OF THE COATED SURFACE: The coated surface should be

periodically cleaned with water only. Detergents or alkaline solutions should preferably be

avoided.

TOUCH UP & RE-COAT: Existing coatings need not be removed; surface should be prepared

as per the above instructions and then subsequently recoated.

REMOVAL OF COATING: Acetone should be used for removal of coating.
