Description

Keep your mirrors and reverse cameras clearer in wet weather. SOFT99 Glaco Mirror Coat Zero is a specialised water-repellent coating designed specifically for exterior mirrors and other reverse-facing surfaces, including reverse cameras.

Its unique coating technology creates a super-fine microscopic surface structure that helps prevent water from remaining across the treated surface. Rather than allowing rainwater to spread into a continuous film over the mirror, the treatment encourages water to repel from the surface, helping maintain a clearer view when reversing in wet conditions.

The convenient spray format makes application quick and straightforward. Simply clean the surface, spray evenly from approximately 15cm away and allow the coating to dry completely.

Designed Specifically for Side Mirrors

Glaco Mirror Coat Zero is different from conventional windscreen rain repellents. It is designed specifically for side mirrors and reverse-facing surfaces, where maintaining a clear view can be particularly difficult during rain.

Side mirrors can quickly become covered with water droplets during wet weather, making it harder to see surrounding traffic and obstacles. Glaco Mirror Coat Zero creates a specialised microscopic coating designed to prevent water from remaining across the mirror surface.

Microscopic Water-Repellent Coating

The technology behind Glaco Mirror Coat Zero works by creating a super-fine microscopic coating over the treated surface.

This coating is designed to prevent water from remaining on the mirror, helping rainwater move away from the treated surface rather than forming a continuous layer that can obscure visibility.

The result is a mirror surface that is better suited to maintaining visibility when driving in wet conditions.

Ideal for Reverse Cameras

Glaco Mirror Coat Zero can also be used on suitable reverse-camera surfaces. This is particularly useful because even a small amount of water on a reverse camera lens can significantly reduce image clarity.

When applying to a reverse camera, ensure the lens is thoroughly clean and suitable for treatment before application.

Important Application Tips

  • Preparation is essential: The mirror or camera lens must be thoroughly clean before application.
  • Use a clean surface: Oils, dirt and existing residues can interfere with the coating.
  • Protect surrounding surfaces: Use the product packaging or a towel around the mirror to help prevent overspray from contacting other parts of the vehicle.
  • Maintain the correct spray distance: Apply from approximately 15cm away.
  • Spray evenly: Ensure the entire intended surface receives consistent coverage.
  • Do not wipe after application: Allow the coating to dry naturally.
  • Do not touch while drying: Contact with the surface during the drying period can affect the coating.
  • Allow adequate curing time: Approximately 1 hour in summer and 2 hours in winter is recommended before the treated surface is disturbed.

Why Clean the Mirror Before Application?

For the coating to work correctly, the mirror surface needs to be as clean as possible. Dirt, oils, traffic film and residues can interfere with the formation of the water-repellent coating and may result in inconsistent performance.

For heavily contaminated mirrors, SOFT99 recommends cleaning with car shampoo or using an appropriate glass-cleaning compound such as Glaco Compound Roll On before applying Mirror Coat Zero.

Wet-Weather Visibility

Rain on side mirrors can create a difficult combination of water droplets, distortion and glare. Glaco Mirror Coat Zero is designed to address this problem by creating a water-repellent microscopic coating that helps prevent water from remaining across the treated surface.

This makes it particularly useful for:

  • Daily drivers
  • Vehicles frequently driven in wet weather
  • Highway and long-distance driving
  • Commercial vehicles
  • 4WDs and SUVs
  • Vehicles without heated side mirrors
  • Vehicles where reverse-camera visibility is important

Used this mob first time today. Rang and received advice - went just fine. My 48 yr old son buys stuff off the company all the time and has been happy for many years. The Gyeon water beading product my son put on the car the other day and allowed me to drive 100km home at night in the rain without using wipers - good stuff.
