What is the best way to clean my shower screen once it has been treated?
A mild detergent with a sponge works well. A micro fibre mitt/cloth with water works just as well and saves you money on unessarsary cleaning products.

 

How often should I clean the shower screen?
A quick clean is recommended every one or two weeks to keep the surface clean and looking like new.

 

Will the coating crack, peel or discolour over time?
No, the coating is only a few nanometres thick and is invisible. There is nothing that will crack or discolour over time. It is unlike a lacquer or varnish.

 

Will the coating gradually wash off with each use?
No, the product is permanent. It is unlike some products that are silicone based and wear off over a period of time.

How much area will each kit cover?
The EziCleen glass & ceramic treatment will cover approximately 10 square meters which is equivalent to the inside of one average shower screen, plus a little left over for the vanity mirror & basin?

 

Does the coating get attacked by chemicals?
No, the only way to remove the coating is by removing molecules of glass, such as scratching the glass or using a rough, gritty or abrasive cleaner. You can still use your harsh toxic cleaners, but why would you?

 

Will the surface become patchy if the coating is worn off in any way?
No, the coating is only a few nanometres thick and transparent, thus it does not change the appearance of the surface. If an abrasive was to be used, it would not be visible where the coating was worn away. That area would, however, be harder to clean. The unprotected surface can be easily repaired by cleaning the area and re-spraying. The molecules will bond directly to the untreated surface.

 

Do I need to use a scourer if I have a new shower screen or tiles?
No, only if you have an existing shower. The scourer is used to remove the build-up of soap scum, mineral deposits and lime scaling.

 

Is it worth putting on an old shower screen?
Yes it is, if the screen is really old, you will not be able to remove all the cloudiness from the glass as it is permanently stained. However the EziCleen treatment will prevent it from becoming worse and will make it much easier to keep clean.

 

How long will the coating last?
Accelerated testing, that simulated cleaning a shower screen and tiles over a 10 year period, revealed that after this time there was minimal or no change to the molecular structure.

 

Do I need to mask fixtures and fittings when I coat the area?
No, the product is not corrosive and will not harm fixtures and fittings. If the product does come in contact, the fixtures or fittings will become water repellent for a short period of time until the product wears off.

 

Can the coating be used on exterior glass?
Yes, the coating is UV stable and will not breakdown.

 

Do I still need to seal the tiles after I apply this product?
No, the coating not only creates an easy to clean surface, but a permanent protective barrier to resist staining. Note: The product is only suitable for glazed ceramics.

Can I apply the product over tiles that have already been sealed with a product?
No, the product needs to be applied to untreated glazed tiles to bond with the surface.

 

If I apply to my toilet, can the coating remain underwater?
Yes, it can! The molecules are permanently bonded, and are impervious to water also the bristles on a toilet brush are not strong enough to scratch the surface.
