nC® ProTect 4500 Glass Sealant
DESCRIPTION
nC® Protect 4500 Glass Sealant is a transparent fluid based on hydrophobic nanotechnology. Its formulation chemically bonds on and into glass surfaces. nC ProTect 4500 Glass Sealant is specifically designed to make glass and ceramics completely dirt-repellent and easy-to-clean. Salt and calcium will not stick. Bird droppings will not bake in. nC® Protect 4500 Glass Sealant can work for one to three years.
After application an invisible bonded matrix of nano silica and quartz is formed inside and on the glass surface. The product will not affect adhesives, bonded parts, silicone sealants or kits. Use of soaps and chemicals for cleaning is not structurally needed. This cost reduction, combined with a very high spread rate of approximately 15ml per m² (industrial) to 25ml per m² (manual) makes nC® PoTect 4500 Glass Sealant extremely cost efficiënt.
nC® Protect 4500 Glass Sealant is user ready and can be applied by mopping, wiping, brushing, rolling or spraying. It contains no fluor, teflon, biocides or metals. nC® ProTect 4500 Glass Sealant can be processed at temperatures ranging from 5°C up to 25°C.
For industrial application at elevated temperatures and with a lifelong service life against dirt and abrasion, ask for nC® ProTect 4501 Glass Sealant product information.
BENEFITS
TECHNICAL

OPERATIONAL
- Easy to apply
- Clean windows without soaps or chemicals, only water
- Cannot be painted over, so graffiti proof
- Makes glass scratch resistant, ideal in desert, agricultural, mountain or shore areas
- Keeps the look-and-feel of glass in mint condition
- Protects for 1 to 3 years
FINANCIAL
- Low application cost per m²
- Structurally eliminates cost for cleaning agents and soaps
- Minimizes replacement costs for scratched or damaged window surfaces
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
- Glass must be free from grease, kit or glue.
- Glass must be free from moss or mold.
- Glass must be dry.
- Ambient temperature during application must be between 5° C and 40° C.
- Surface temperature must be between 5° C and 40° C.
- Do not apply when ambient humidity exceeds 80%.
- Do not apply in a dusty environment.
- Do not apply during rain or heavy winds.
- Do not apply in direct sunlight.
- Wear protective gloves and safety goggles during application.
- Do not eat, drink or smoke during application.
- Do not dilute or thin nC ProTect 4500 Glass Sealant.
- Soak microfibre cloth with nC ProTect 4500 Glass Sealant.
- Apply nC ProTect 4500 Glass Sealant by polishing the glass surface with the soaked microfibre cloth.
- Spread thinly and evenly.
- nC ProTect 4500 Glass Sealant forms a greyish fog on the surface, right after saturation of the substrate.
- Apply another coating layer as described above.
- Allow the surface to dry for 2 minutes.
- Dried product or foggy residues can now be polished out.
- Any dry product or foggy residue still visible on the surface must be removed with a clean water soaked sponge.
- Leave item to dry for 1 to 2 hours protected from water, rain, frost or chemicals, depending on ambient air humidity.
- Do not use forced drying air or elevated temperature during curing.
- Glass is ready for full exposure after 2 hours.
- Clean tools, spraynozzles with water immediately after every stop.
- Wash hands and face after every stop.
As nanotechnology is about bonding into surfaces and matrices of nanoparticles need to be built up after application, the treatment reaches full performance AFTER a cure time of approximately 12 to 24 hours, which is dependent upon environmental variables, humidity and heat applied. Tests of maximum performance should be performed after full cure.
LIMITATIONS
- Product CAN NOT be painted over.
- Do not use forced or heated air to accelerate drying. Do not attempt to accelerate drying.
- Do not allow application during freezing temperatures.
