Spandrel Technical Information

· Coating is used on clear or reflective glass. It can add shimmering jewel-like colors to the interiors of hotels, shops, restaurants, galleries, hospitals, as well as residential kitchens and baths.
· Tinted or reflective colors can be harmonized or matched to eliminate any "banding" effect even on high visible transmission glass.
· When OPACI-COAT-300 is applied to glass, a rubber-like elastomeric film is created which satisfies the criteria for fallout protection/safety glazing without the need for taping or the application of scrim films.
· Approved sealants compatible with OPACI-COAT-300: DOW CORNING 795 | 995 | 1199 CLEAR
· Concrete, wood, & sheet rock are required to be primed before installing spandrel glass.
· Pin holes may be visible on spandrel coating and are acceptable by ICD Coatings' Standards.
· Our insulated glass units are edge deleted for proper seal. (Glue is not applied directly to OPACI-COAT-300)
· Do not attempt to put insulation up to or net to spandrel glass. Special air gap minima are required (usually 1 to 2 inches).
· For further technical information refer to ICD Coatings at www.icdcoatings.com.

Fallout Protection

· When OPACI - COAT - 300 is applied to glass, a rubber-like elastomeric film is created which satisfies the criteria for fallout protection/safety glazing without the need for taping or the application of scrim films.
Unlike other glass opacifying materials, OPACI - COAT - 300 is lead free, contains no organic solvents and is self extinguishing. It can be handled at any stage with no fear of personal or environmental harm.
· For fallout protection a minimum wet thickness of 13 mils (.33mm) must be maintained.
· There will be an approximate material loss of 30% due to the type of application equipment utilized.
· Lighter colors require thicker coatings for total opacification.
