Glass / Ceramics Coatings

7601 Super Glass & 7608 Concentrate

7601 Super Glass (& 7608 Concentrate) is a high-quality SiO₂-based coating which is engineered to provide long-lasting, invisible protection for glass and ceramic surfaces. Designed for various applications, these coatings enhance surface longevity, ease of maintenance, and ensure a clean, pristine appearance.

Key Features

  • Invisible Protection: Forms a transparent coating (100-150 nm) that preserves the original look and feel of treated surfaces while adding a subtle brightness.
  • Hydrophobic & Oleophobic Properties: significantly reduce adhesion of water, oils, and pollutants, providing a pronounced "easy-to-clean" effect that minimizes the need for harsh cleaners.
  • Enhanced Anti-Stick Properties: Prevents the adherence of grease, lime, dust, insects, algae, and bird droppings, making surfaces easier to maintain.
  • Durability & UV Stability: The coating forms a permanent bond with the substrate, ensuring abrasion resistance and UV stability for several years on non abraded surfaces.
  • Self-Cleaning Capabilities: Particularly effective on vertical surfaces, like facades and solar panels, where rain helps to wash away contaminants, reducing cleaning frequency.
  • Increased Solar Panel Efficiency: Improves light transmittance, leading to up to 10% higher output in wet conditions and reduces dirt build-up. All soiling hinders energy production.
  • Eco-Friendly Cleaning: Reduces water use and eliminates the need for chemical cleaning, decreasing the ecological impact.
  • Protection Against Environmental Factors: Shields surfaces from damage caused by salt, sand, and other contaminants, extending the lifespan of treated materials. In certain conditions (eg light rain followed by, rapid drying) dust particles can be seen on the coated surface. These particles are removed with the first wipe of a windscreen wiper or after subsequent rain.
  • Food-Safe & Inert: Suitable for use in environments with food contact due to the chemically inert nature of the liquid glass coating.
  • Enhanced Safety for Automotive Use: Reduces glare at night and disperses rain quickly above 50 km/h, Significantly improving visibility in all conditions, especially at night.
  • Insect Repellent: Reduces insect adhesion, simplifying windscreen cleaning and maintaining clarity for safer driving.
  • Complies with the latest European Union Regulation (EU) 2024/2462 which specifies limits of less than 25 ppb for PFHxA and less than 1000 ppb for total fluorine content)

Application

  • Automotive Glass: Enhances safety by improving visibility in rainy conditions. The hydrophobic layer allows rainwater to bead off quickly, reducing reliance on wipers. Effective for up to 20,000 km, even under challenging conditions. Learn more
  • Solar Panels: Reduces the accumulation of dust and grime, maintaining panel efficiency and reducing cleaning needs. Prevents "baking in" of contaminants under sunlight, extending the panel's lifespan. Learn more
  • Architectural Glass: Keeps building facades, windows, and glass entrance areas cleaner for longer, minimizing maintenance costs and enhancing the building's appearance.
  • Sanitary Surfaces: Ideal for bathrooms, including shower screens, mirrors, and glazed ceramics, preventing water spots and soap scum buildup.
  • Ceramic Surfaces: Protects sinks, bathtubs, and swimming pools from stains and scale deposits, simplifying cleaning.

Application Instructions

Preparation: Ensure thorough cleaning using a cleaner such as Biosativa®. It is important that the cleaner does not leave surfactants in place. A final wipe over with an alcohol-based cleaner is advised. Buff the surface after wiping with alcohol as this action removes any residual contaminants. Thorough cleaning prior to application is very important, in order to establish optimum performance , especially for automotive glass.

Manual Application
  1. Apply the coating with a lint free wipe in vertical and horizontal wiping actions. Ensuring full coverage of the surface. Work rapidly as the coating dries quiet quickly. If one of the CCM pre impregnated wipes is used, a coverage time of 90 seconds for a windscreen is the target application time.
  2. Allow drying for 5-30 minutes, depending on the temperature.
  3. Buff any residue with a clean microfiber cloth. This buffing action can require more energy in warm conditions.
  4. Full curing takes 12 hours, with water resistance achieved after 1 hour.
  5. Apply between 5°C and 30°C

Do not apply to warm surfaces eg window glass with a surface temperature of over 30°C. Do not apply in wet or very damp conditions.

Industrial Application

Recommended for application with spray or polish systems. Use 10-15 ml/m² for uniform industrial results.

Packaging & Storage

  • Packaging: Available in 1 liter bottles, 200 liter barrels, and 1000 liter IBCs.
  • Storage Conditions: Store between -10°C to +30°C in a dry, shaded area.

Safety & Handling

  • Wear protective gloves, and mask and ensure adequate ventilation during application.
  • Avoid contact with eyes and skin. In case of contact, rinse thoroughly with water.
  • Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for detailed safety instructions.
