Oil-Resistant Protective Coatings

Spray these coatings on glass to create a clear, scratch-resistant surface that repels oil and water. They’re also known as oleophobic and hydrophobic coatings. Good for use on machine windows to repel coolant for a clear view, they can also be used on exterior windows to help keep them clean. Coatings are made from nanoparticles of fumed silica, also known as quartz, suspended in a solvent. Spray them onto glass, fiberglass, and ceramic surfaces and spread with a cloth. Allow to dry overnight and buff for a thin, glass-like finish that protects against chemicals, such as acids, alkalies, coolant, fuel, and solvents.

Shoe and Boot Protective Epoxy Coatings

Extend the life of your footwear with these abrasion- and water-resistant epoxies. Stronger and more durable than most footwear materials, these epoxies are often used to coat and repair high-wear areas prone to rips, cracks, and water exposure, such as safety toes. They permanently bond to leather, plastic, and rubber. Each cartridge includes enough epoxy to coat the toes on one pair of shoes or boots. They fully harden in 24 hours and dry with a gloss finish, which can be rubbed away for a matte finish.
