Frequently Asked Questions
Does the easy glass clean itself?
Yes, but it depends. The process still very much depends on where the glass is placed. Self-cleaning glass typically needs UV light from the sun to harden surface dirt and rainwater to wash the flaky dirt away. So, if your glass is shaded and does not get much direct light or is constantly sheltered from the rain, the glass will not ‘clean itself’.
How effective is its ‘self-cleaning’?
Is it absolutely effective, especially if exposed to direct sunlight and rain. This means that sheltered locations are not ideal because the glazing requires UV rays and rain to ‘wash’ off the loose dirt. In the right location the glass is highly effective.
Are there different types?
There are several types of easy clean glass currently available. Some brands make their glass products smoother during production. Several other glass companies smooth their glass in a secondary process by applying a solution to the surface of the glass. This is much the same way as applying polish to your car. Both methods do the job and make it easier to keep the glass cleaner.
How does the easy clean glass coating solution work?
A transparent coating on the external surface of the glass harnesses the power of UV rays and rain (or water) to break down dirt and grime then wash it clean away. The coating is integrated into the surface of the glass and is exceptionally durable.

The coating is expertly integrated into the surface of the glass, making their products highly durable. The coating is on the exterior pane and requires daylight and rain to help the process.
How to Maintain
While glass can ‘clean itself’, it still needs some maintenance from time to time. The best way to clean it is with a mild product and clean water. This can be applied with a soft cloth, non-abrasive sponge, chamois leather, or a non-metal window squeegee.
Cleaning your glass with help prevent any dirt or abrasive particles which can cause scratches or damage the coating. You can also use vinegar to remove stubborn marks but make sure that it is washed off properly after application.
Try not to use harsh chemical products such as soda, bleach, and washing powder.
