Glass sealant / glass sealing: dirt-repellent protection for windows and glass surfaces

Glass surfaces such as windows and shower doors are exposed to daily use and therefore also to dirt, water stains and limescale deposits. Conventional cleaning methods usually only offer short-term solutions. Nano-Care® glass sealing gives your glass surfaces a reliable non-stick effect that makes dirt less sticky and makes cleaning easier in the long term.

Benefit from our more than twenty years of expertise in the development of high-quality surface finishes and discover our innovative solutions for clean glass surfaces.

Our products

With our innovative glass impregnation, you can create a durable protective barrier for your glass surfaces – based on state-of-the-art nanotechnology. Nanostructures form a chemically covalent bond with the substrate, creating a robust, water-repellent layer.

The invisible coating smoothes the surface by closing tiny pores and thus creating a natural non-stick effect.

This effect makes it considerably more difficult for water and protection to adhere, which makes cleaning much easier. Water simply slides off the coated glass surface, taking dirt particles with it. A damp cloth or mild cleaning agent is usually sufficient for easy cleaning.

The advantages of glass impregnation / waterproofing / proofing

Our nano-impregnation / nano-waterproofing / proofing from Nano-Care® offers a number of advantages that are convincing in both private households and the commercial sector. Thanks to state-of-the-art technologies and a sophisticated composition, it not only guarantees optimum protection, but also makes the work of maintaining your glass surfaces considerably easier.

The advantages of our wood impregnation / wood treatment

The impregnation / waterproofing / proofing of exterior wood offers numerous advantages that significantly extend the service life and beauty of the wood; you will find a list of these below:

Long-term protection	The UV-stable impregnation / waterproofing / proofing permanently protects the glass from environmental influences such as rain, snow and ice. It prevents corrosion and weathering, which extends the service life of the glass. It also protects against micro-scratches and abrasion, especially on heavily used surfaces.
Easier cleaning	Dirt hardly sticks to the treated surface and can be removed effortlessly. The water beading effect ensures that liquids do not adhere to the surface, making cleaning quicker and easier.
Cost efficiency	Extended cleaning intervals save you time and cleaning agents, which reduces operating costs in the long term. The long-lasting seal reduces the need for frequent resealing.
Environmental friendliness	As fewer cleaning agents are required for cleaning and water-based alternatives are also available, impregnation / waterproofing / proofing helps to protect the environment.
Improved visibility	The treated glass surface remains free of streaks and stains, which significantly improves visibility.
Further advantages		The impregnation prevents the glass from fogging up if necessary (anti-fog effect) and offers an antibacterial effect if required. It is suitable for all glass surfaces, both indoors and outdoors.

Step-by-step instructions for impregnation / waterproofing / proofing using the example of a window

For the best possible result when sealing glass, it is crucial to prepare the surface thoroughly and apply the sealant precisely. The entire process can be summarized in a simple step-by-step guide:

Careful cleaning

Before the sealant is applied, the glass surface must be thoroughly cleaned of all dirt and dust particles. The sealant can only take full effect on an absolutely clean and dry surface. Make sure you use a fresh and clean cloth to avoid leaving any residue.

Application of the sealant

Application – Depending on the product specifications, the sealant is normally applied evenly to the glass surface using a clean cloth or a special applicator. It is important that the entire surface is well covered in order to achieve an even result.

Polishing – After the sealant has been applied, excess residue should be removed immediately with a clean cloth. The surface is then carefully polished to produce a glossy, smooth coating.

Drying and curing – Depending on the product, the sealed surface must be protected from moisture for a certain period of time after polishing. This allows the sealant to cure completely and develop its full effect.

Follow the manufacturer’s instructions – To achieve the best possible result, it is important to follow all the manufacturer’s recommendations. This is the only way to ensure that the sealant retains its protective effect over a long period of time.

With the right application and care, glass sealant / glass sealing ensures long-lasting protection and easier cleaning of the treated surfaces.

Costs of a glass sealant / glass sealing

The prices for glass sealant / glass sealing vary depending on several factors. Important aspects that influence the price are the product itself and the size of the area to be sealed.

Product type – The cost of glass sealant / glass sealing depends heavily on the type of product; professional sealants designed for permanent application can cost between 15 and 50 euros per square meter. Cheaper alternatives for DIY applications, which are available in DIY stores or online, are usually between €10 and €30 per bottle. Our Nano-Care® glass sealants offer a high-quality solution and cost between 5 and 10 euros per square meter.
Application area – The size of the area to be treated also plays a role in the cost. Larger areas can often be sealed at a lower price per square meter, making the total cost of larger projects more affordable.

In general, you can expect to pay between 10 and 50 euros per square meter for DIY solutions. For professional applications carried out with high-quality products such as those from Nano-Care®, you should expect to pay between 100 and 500 euros for the entire treatment of the surface.

How long does glass impregnation / waterproofing / proofing last?

The durability of glass impregnation is influenced by several factors. Correct application, in particular thorough cleaning of the surface before sealing, can significantly extend the life of the impregnation. Environmental conditions also play a role: strong sunlight, rain or snow can wear away the protection more quickly. Aggressive cleaning methods can also damage the sealant more quickly. As a rule, glass impregnation lasts between six months and several years. High-quality products such as Nano-Care® sealants, which are applied correctly and maintained regularly, offer a durability of one to three years or even longer.
