The Magical Effect Of Ultra Ever Dry Waterproof Coating

By Amelia Buckner


Nanotechnology has provided a solution to keeping water and other liquids from different surfaces. This technology has been used to produce the ultra ever dry waterproof coating that repels water, oily substances and other liquids that stain different surfaces. It is made effective through aleophobic and superhydrophobic mechanisms. The coating has been approved for use in industrial and commercial spaces and not consumer or residential areas.

The top coat is based on acetone properties while the bottom coat is based on xylene properties. This is what keeps it in liquid form. The two properties lead to emission of very powerful fumes that would be detrimental to your health if proper precautions are not taken. These are some of the reasons it has not been approved for use on domestic surfaces.

The process of application requires even greater caution. You will be required to have special gloves of nitrile quality. To protect you from the fumes, a p-100 rated respirator is required. The respirator must be fitted with filters that can trap organic vapor. Failure to adhere to these application guidelines is likely to cause adverse health effects.

The ultra dry coat requires a lot of caution during application. The water resistance properties tempt many individuals into spraying it on toilets and other surfaces to avoid stains. Such experiments have been disastrous especially when mishandled.

The process of application is completed in two phases. The bottom coat must be applied and left to dry for twenty to thirty minutes. This is the minimum window period to dry. Some surfaces require up to a whole night to absorb the coat. The second coat will also require about thirty minutes to dry.

A whitish haze is left on the surface after the coat has been applied. This means that it is not fully transparent and therefore limits areas in which it can be used. Customers who require huge quantities of this coating substance can get customized shades for use on their target surfaces.

The process of application has a great impact on the quality and efficacy of the coat. It comes with instructions on how to apply on different surfaces and achieve expected results. A lot of control is required during application to ensure an even top layer is achieved. The wet layer should be 76 to 127 microns thick.

The pump used when spraying affects quality of resultant surface. A hand spray can only be used for casual application because it does not produce the best results. The best option is to use air compressors or pneumatic spray because it produces a controllable and even coat.

The resulting whitish haze on the surface means that it would not be ideal for use on motorcycle helmets and car windscreen. In situation where you have to apply the coat, it is advisable that you follow the recommendations made by the manufacturers to the letter.

Only a professional will produce the best results regardless of the surface. There are specialists in application of ultra dry coat who come with proper equipment and possess the skills required to produce excellent results. Their expertise ensures that they produce excellent results under all circumstances.
