What Is Optical Clarity and How TopCoat® Gla-C® Improves Clarity on All Types of Glass Surfaces

Optical clarity is a measure of how much refraction occurs on a surface or the property of how clear, transparent, or opaque an object is. In the world of detailing and sealants, optical clarity is essential, and you never want to use a product that reduces optical clarity. Fundamentally, you want to use products that enhance the optical clarity of a surface and at the same time preserve its natural properties as much as possible.

TopCoat® has been in the business for two decades perfecting formulations that are made in the United States of America. TopCoat® offers superior optical clarity with the versatility of products like TopCoat® F11®, TopCoat® F11PRO®, TopCoat Spritz®TopCoat® PolyWash®, TopCoat® Gla-C®, and more allowing them to be applied to many different surface types. 

 

TopCoat® Gla-C® rises above the rest to offer superior Optical Clarity in cleaning and protecting different glass surfaces

When it comes to the best in optical clarity in a product that can clean and protect a glass-type surface, look no further than TopCoat® Gla-C®! TopCoat® Gla-C® was specially formulated for application on glass-like surfaces, which include vinyl, acrylic, isinglass (plastic on Jeep soft tops, boat canopies, and more), lexan, window film, window tint film (tinted windows), traditional glass surfaces, and coated glass.

TopCoat® Gla-C® uses advanced technologies like MycroGlide™ tech to chemically fill microscopic pores of glass and other glass-like surfaces to reduce surface tension and friction. The MycroGlide™ technology in Gla-C®, and products like TopCoat® F11®, create a smooth barrier that keeps glass surfaces clean longer. Moreover, the application process for TopCoat® Gla-C® is easy and doesn’t create or leave behind streaks or any residue.

TopCoat® Gla-C® is the only product that can safely and effectively clean and maintain glass surfaces using an eco-friendly formula free of any VOCs, abrasives, or harsh chemicals that may damage sensitive glass or glass films like window tint.

Have you ever seen window tint on a vehicle that has turned purple or other colors and it just looks horrible? Well, more than likely that window tint is either very old, or it was cleaned using inferior window cleaning products or ones that contain harsh chemicals that react with the window tint to fade it, discolor it, or in some cases cause permanent physical damage. With TopCoat® Gla-C® you don’t have to worry about damage to your window tint or other sensitive glass types like acrylic and isinglass found on many Jeep and boat soft tops and canopies. Many times, the isinglass in canopies turn yellow or dull due to damage from inferior or harsh glass cleaning and sealant products. TopCoat® Gla-C® will keep those surfaces protected and have the optimal optical clarity without the worry of damage.

The long-lasting benefits of TopCoat® Gla-C® go beyond its superior optical clarity in that it is extremely hydrophobic (resists water, dust, dirt, grime, etc), improves visibility (increases safety), safe for all glass surface types, and is easy to apply and maintain. Application of Gla-C® is simple and quick – all you do is spray the surface, wipe, and perform a light buff all using a clean microfiber towel. You could even use TopCoat® Gla-C® in place of products like Rain-X, which will bead up rainwater on your windshield to provide additional optical clarity and visibility helping to make your next drive safer in rainstorms.

The difference is literally clear with TopCoat® Gla-C®!
