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 234
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/m 2, 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 rolloff 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. VISCOSITY: 10 sec SPECIFIC GRAVITY: 0.78 COLOR: Transparent 235
