Application

Pre-cleaning

It is recommended to wear disposable protective gloves. Application temperature 5 - 35° C.

  1. Clean the surface very carefully with commercially available cleaners. After this preliminary cleaning process, wipe the surface with a clean wet cloth to remove any residues of the cleaning agents from the surface. Dry the surface.
  2. Remove the alcohol pre-cleaning cloth from the sachet and wipe the surface thoroughly. (This specially formulated alcohol will remove any residual impurities.)
  3. Allow the surface to dry for at least 1 minute then wipe the surface with a clean tissue or similar item. The better the cleaning, the longer this exceptional coating will last.
Coating

It is recommended to wear disposable protective gloves. Application temperature 5 - 35° C.

  1. Remove the cloth containing the coating from the sachet and wipe the surface in a hatched pattern, ensuring full coverage of the surface. The cloth is sufficient for approx. 2m². It is important to work quickly because the cloth will dry after approx. 90 seconds.
  2. Allow the surface to dry for at least 2 minutes (below 15°C = 10 minutes), do not touch for 10 minutes. Full curing takes approximately 10 hours but the coating is functional within minutes. In some instances a slight "misty", appearance can be detected. Light buffing of the surface with a microfibre cloth will remove any misting.

Plastic surfaces become antimicrobial and gain increased hydrophobicity and easy clean attributes. Test on an inconspicuous area prior to coating. Not suitable for alcohol sensitive surfaces. The coating is not optimised for polycarbonate and Plexiglas®. The durability on these surfaces is below 18 months.

FAQ

1Can TiOSEPT® be applied to plastics?
Application on PE, PP, melamine resin & polycarbonate is possible (e.g. on light switches, table tops etc.)
2Can TiOSEPT® be used on stainless steel/metal surfaces, e.g. handrails, outdoors?
Yes, this is possible.
3What is revolutionary about the TiOSEPT® technology?
People have been using silver as a remedy against bacteria for thousands of years. The first recorded uses were in China 3500 years ago. There is no doubt that silver is an effective antibacterial agent, but it has to be the "right kind" of silver, used in the right form. This is especially true when silver is incorporated into coatings. In the mid-2000s, silver was used in refrigerators, paints, coatings, etc. In most cases, the silver used for these applications was in the form of "silver ions". This technology worked very well for a short time, but after a few weeks the performance dropped dramatically, so we developed a solution which allowed us to incorporate silver into our ultra thin "liquid glass coatings" and also keep it stable and effective for a prolonged period.

We found that the addition of "silver chloride" is the ideal form of silver as it integrates well into our coating and most importantly it provides long-term protection against a wide range of micro-organisms (bacteria, fungi and viruses). At the same time the coating is harmless to humans, animals and the environment and complies with German and Austrian biocide regulations.

The technology has been tested for high level efficacy by independent laboratories, e.g. TÜV and Hohenstein.
4Does Tiosept® fulfill food grade standards?
Yes, Tiosept® is food grade (see document above).
