Tile Coating

Surface coating

This transparent high-strength surface coating from the servFaces line is a diverse and unique quality product for a variety of smooth mineral surfaces, such as granite, marble, ceramic surfaces in sanitary areas, tiling and much more. It offers optimum protection for most diverse areas of application:

All-round talent for surface optimization

The highly-transparent coating forms a long-acting, scratch and dirt resistant protective film with minimum consumption. Hard-coated layers are suited especially to large-scale areas of application due to the low material consumption. Therefore, damage caused by resins, acids, salts, weather and mechanical impacts have no chance. Our high-strength hard-coated layer is also extremely resistant to temperatures up to +890°.

Nature Factor
Our goal is the development of high quality products that leave a positive long lasting impression, user friendly and safe to use and reduced impact on the environment. servFaces Tile Coating meets the requirements for food contacting articles and materials of the paragraphs 30 and 31 of the German Food, Article and Feed Law Book.

After curing, the coated surface does not pose any health risk and is allowed to get into contact with food.

This was confirmed by CBA GmbH with a certificate, that was issued on May 15, 2018. The complete certificate can be found in our shop under the tab Data sheets.

Areas of application:

• Granite
• Marble
• Ceramic surfaces in sanitary areas
• Tiling

Properties:

• Transparent, invisible and flexible
• UV and weather resistant
• Saltwater-proof 
• Resistant to cleaning agents of pH range 2 - 13
• Anti-graffiti effects
• Long-acting protection against oil, vinegar, orange /lemon juice, lipstick, red wine and much more
• Resistant to temperatures from -50 °C to + 890°C 
• Increases hardness and scratch resistance
• Easy-to-clean 
• Anti-scaling protection
• Reduces fingerprints by up to 90 %
• Extends cleaning intervals and thus reduces cleaning and care costs 

Use:

The area to be treated must be dry and free from grease. The product can be applied on smooth surfaces with our applicator. You can remove excess product with a microfiber cloth after a short reaction time of approx. 1 - 2 minutes. It is also optimal for use by fine spraying and rolling. To achieve the best results, the ambient temperature should be within the range of +10°C - +35°. After 120 minutes the product is dust-dry. Tile Coating fully cures after approx. 6 - 8 days (depending on the temperature and air humidity). After curing, the coating is resistant to acids, alkaline solutions and solvents (pH 2 - 13).

Caution: Do not apply the product in direct sunlight and do not let it dry!

Technical explanations 

Tile Coating guarantees the following properties with a film thickness of 3 - 5 micrometers (the film thickness depends on the application procedure):

• Hydrophobicity of clean, bright, polished or painted surfaces (the surface must be free of silicone or grease. Suitable cleaning agents are servFaces Cleaner Ultima & Neutra)
• Optimizes the surface hardness of the coated substrate
• The coating has "self-healing" effects due to the unique manufacturing formulation (organic / inorganic components). No other coating system has this thermoelastic flow property. 
• Even surfaces exposed to continuous stress of up to +890°C can be successfully sealed due to the high content of inorganic matter. 

 This list is only a short description of what it can do.

Lifetime:

The lifetime is 2 - 10 years always according to the substrate, surface stress and layer thickness.

Important:

• Protect the surface from dirt and moisture or finger grease after treatment for at least 18 - 24 hours.
• Curing time can be shortened by approx. 2 - 3 days using additional drying. 
• The surface must not be exposed to any abrasion during curing!  

Application temperature: +10°C to +35°C 

Application quantity: 3 to 5 ml per m²

Weatherproof after: 18 to 24 hours at +20°C

Fully cured: at ambient temperature: approx. 6 - 8 days

pH resistance: pH 2 - 13

Storage temperature: +10°C to +25°C

Storage and shelf life: At least 12 months at ambient temperature in tightly sealed original container

Caution: Protect the product from direct sunlight and freezing temperatures!

Note:

Emulsions and coating products need a certain period of time to bind to the surface and fully cure after application. Therefore, please check the curing time of individual products. Only this can guarantee that the product provides the desired benefits. Direct exposure of the surface to water or cleaning agents after application can considerably reduce the product's properties.

General information about the product:

Factors such as preliminary cleaning, application temperature, curing time, etc., can influence the product's effectiveness and lifetime. Therefore, fluctuations of product properties cannot be excluded.

Note after use:

Surfaces treated with paint care products should principally always be cleaned as gently as possible to avoid damaging or even removing the product properties. Avoid using strong cleaning agents with high pH or a high content of solvents.
