1040 PearlGlaze - Solid Colour

PearlGlaze™ is a breakthrough system for applying colour to glass. Unlike conventional coating systems, PearlGlaze™ is purely designed for adhesion to glass. Solid colours, pearlescents and metallics are all available!

Each product in the PearlGlaze™ range is being extensively used for fashionable float, textured and plain glass panels and tiles. 1040, 1042, 1044 and 1046 can all be used for kitchen splashbacks, toughened countertops, glass furniture, feature walls and countless other interior commercial applications where a coloured or translucent glass surface is appropriate.

Solid Colour has 105 standard colours to choose from. Colour cards are available and can be personalised with your company logo and details. Colours can also be tinted using Evic's Xpress Tint In-House Tinting System.

The purity and thickness of the glass substrate can have a significant effect on the appearance of colours when seen through the glass. Most pale colours should only be used on Starphire optically clear glass. The Evic Group 1040 colour card assumes the colour is viewed through Starphire glass.

Preparation:

Before spraying, clean glass thoroughly and air dry surface before using 920S Ad Pro Solvent. Do not use methylated spirits (or any other solvent) as a substitute to 920S Adpro, as this will affect the adhesion performance of 1040 to the glass substrate. Wash glass thoroughly with 920S Adpro, maintaining a wet film on the surface of the glass for at least 10 to 15 minutes. (This can be done by spray bottle or Adpro saturated clean rag and working the film with the wet rag. After the elapse of 10 to 15 minutes, clean surface with a dry clean lint free cloth, making sure all solvent is removed and there are no streaks or smudges.

If you require more cleaning techniques contact the EVIC Technical department.

Application for Use:

Step 1: Solid Colour - carefully apply Solid Colour (thinned with 920S Adpro solvent) in 2-3 double header coats (as required for opacity), allowing flash off time between, and changing direction for each pass. This acheives even and consistent opacity for the coating.

If applicable, ensure deep valleys and sharp peaks common to textured flass are covered sufficiently. Since PearlGlaze uses only lead-free tinters, clean bright colours may require extra coats to ensure opacity. Alternatively, Glaze Gray (SG040) may be used as a backing coat to achieve opacity.

Allow to dry or bake according to the Data Sheet (see BAKING).
