How to apply EnduroShield

5 minutes a panel.Then 8 hoursof doing nothing.

Clean the glass with EnduroClean until it is residue free. Let it dry. Spray the coating on. Polish it in with the microfibre cloth, small overlapping circles. That is about 5 to 10 minutes for 1 panel, pre-clean included. Then you keep water off the glass for 8 hours.

Water beading off EnduroShield-treated shower glass

Before you open the box

Watch this first. A few minutes of watching saves you doing the whole job twice.

This is the official EnduroShield how-to video, from the people who make the coating. You get to see the job done before you have a spray bottle in your hand.

It covers the same job you will do here: clean, dry, spray, polish, leave it alone. Same video as the one on our See It Work page.

The kit

Everything you need is in the box.

You do not need to buy anything, borrow anything, or go hunting for a special cloth before you start. Each piece has 1 job.

No machine, no heat, no technician. If you can clean a window, you can do this.

Step by step

5 steps. About 5 minutes a panel. Do them in this order.

Read all 5 before you start, so you are not reading the next step with a wet hand.

01
Clean the glass with EnduroClean
Wash the panel with the EnduroClean bottle in your kit until nothing is left on it: no soap film, no old cleaner, nothing. The coating bonds to bare glass. Anything still sitting on the surface is what it bonds to instead, and that is the most common reason a coating does not last.
02
Let it dry completely
The coating needs dry glass. Not wiped dry, properly dry. If you can still see a damp patch anywhere, wait a few more minutes.
03
Spray the coating on
Spray it over the whole panel, corner to corner, so no part is missed. Finish 1 panel, then move to the next.
04
Polish it in with the cloth
Take the microfibre cloth and work it in with small overlapping circles until you have covered the whole panel. Even coverage is what matters here, not a thick layer.
05
Leave it alone for 8 hours
No water, no wiping, no touching for 8 hours while it cures. Tell everyone at home not to use that shower until the 8 hours are up.

The glass needs 8 hours alone.

That is all the cure needs. After you polish the coating in, keep water off the glass for 8 hours.

Our tip: do it at night. After the last shower of the day, clean the glass, let it dry, coat it, then go to bed. By morning it is ready. Daytime is completely fine too. The only thing that matters is that no water touches the glass for those 8 hours, so pick 8 hours when nobody needs that shower.

8 hours

Keep it dry

No water, no fingers, no wiping. Leave a window open or run the fan. If you have a cat, keep the bathroom door shut.

First 30 minutes

You can start over

Sprayed too much in one spot, or missed a patch? Clean the panel again with EnduroClean and redo it. After 30 minutes it is too late to redo that panel.

First 24 hours

Light streaks are normal

You may see faint streaks on the glass on the first day. Nothing is wrong. Once the 8 hours are up, wipe them off with a damp microfibre cloth.

Then send us your proof video.

Do this after the 8 hours are up, not before. Run water over the glass and film the water beading off. Say your order number out loud, or type it in the message. This is what starts your 3 Year Limited Warranty, and it has to reach us within 30 days of delivery.

4 things to keep off the glass.

Your coating is on and cured. It is tough. It is not bulletproof. These 4 take it off early, and none of them are covered. Better you read them today than find out on the day you want to claim.

01

Plain water, not strong chemicals

Neat CLR, ammonia and oven cleaner eat the coating. Most days you do not need any of them. Water and a microfibre cloth do the job.

02

Microfibre, not a scouring pad

Scouring pads, steel wool and powder cleansers all work by scratching. On coated glass, scratching is all they do.

03

Soft rubber, not a blade

A razor scraper takes the coating off. So does a squeegee whose rubber has gone hard and yellow. Use a soft rubber blade and replace it when it stiffens.

04

Hang the squeegee, do not lean it

A knock, a dropped shampoo bottle, a squeegee resting against the panel. All of that is mechanical damage, and it is not covered.

The same rule covers all 4: if it would ruin a non-stick pan, keep it off your glass. The full list is in the After-Care Guide.

Questions

What people ask us before they start.

How long does it take?

About 5 to 10 minutes per panel, pre-clean included. Then 8 hours of leaving it alone while it cures. Do it at night and the glass is ready by morning.

Is it hard? Do I need to hire someone?

No. The kit is made for first timers. Clean the glass. Let it dry. Spray it on. Polish it in. Wait 8 hours. That is the whole job.

What if I mess it up?

Within the first 30 minutes after you spray, you can clean it off with EnduroClean and do that panel again. Missed a spot, got a heavy patch, it is all fixable in that window.

Why is my glass streaky right after I apply?

Almost certainly nothing is wrong. Mild streaking is normal in the first 24 hours while the coating cures. Once the 8 hours are up, wipe it off with a damp microfibre cloth.
