Protective Coating
Shower glass protective coating can create an ultra-long lasting shield to the shower glass surface to protect it from water stains, corrosion, soap scum buildup, and mineral deposits. It provide enhanced protection and functionality. It also can greatly reduces shower glass cleaning time and frequency. MIGO Glass provides custom shower glass protective coating service in our fabrication factory at great price.

1. How Does Shower Glass Coating Work?
Shower glass is often tempered glass with an extremely durable property. It is subject to minor damage and etching.
Shower glass may appear and feel smooth. But it is very porous that makes it susceptible to the effects of hard water and soap scum.
Glass coatings are made up of silicon dioxide (SiO2) particles that repel dirt and boost brightness. The glass protective coating can seal up these pores offering significant long-term benefits. The protective coating serves as a durable and long-lasting barrier, form bonding the adhesion of limescale, moisture, alkalinity, and dirt.
By forming a chemical bond with the glass, the protective coating remains intact over time, without peeling, flaking, or cracking.
The glass protective coating is transparency, chemical inertness, and UV stability. Investing in such a coating proves beneficial for the long-term durability and maintenance of your shower glass.
2. What Material is Glass Coating Made of?
2.1 Metal Oxides
Such as silicon dioxide (SiO2), titanium dioxide (TiO2), silicon nitride (Si3N4), etc. These materials can provide protection, stain resistance, UV protection, reflect heat energy, and more.
2.2 Metal Films
such as silver (Ag), aluminum (Al), zinc (Zn), etc. Metal films have the properties of reflecting and transmitting light of specific wavelengths and are used to make mirrors and reflective glass.
2.3 Oxide Coating
Such as zinc oxide (ZnO), tin oxide (SnO2), etc. These coatings can be used to make conductive shower glass or provide other special optical and electrical properties.
2.4 Organic Coating
Such as polymer coating, nano-coating, etc. These coatings can improve the water resistance, abrasion resistance, scratch resistance and other properties of shower glass.
3. Shower Glass Protective Coatings Options
Protective coatings for glass can be applied by the manufacturer for shower door or shower enclosures. The durability of shower glass protective coating depends on the product quality. Some of the expensive famous coating brands can last up to 20 years, while other cheap options only last 2 years.
EnduroShield and ShowerGuard are the famous glass protective coating brand in the world. Their glass protective coating products can be applied by shower glass manufacturer or by yourself at home. MIGO has long-term cooperation with domestic and internationally renowned brands to provide protective coating solutions for our shower glass products. We offer custom shower glass protective coating service.
