Low-E Protect Washer Removal (WR)
Protect your coated glass from corrosion, abrasion and surface scratches
Removes safely, cleanly and easily with standard glass washer settings for Low-E coatings

Low-E Protect WR is the only commercially available temporary protective coating that protects your to-be-tempered or annealed coated glass from the time of coating deposition to the moment it enters the glass washer.
It provides excellent protection against aging/corrosion and is highly effective against mechanical damage from abrasion and surface scratches during transportation and processing.
Requires the use of powder separation between sheets.
Extend the shelf life of your coated glass up to 1 year, allowing you and your customers more flexibility in scheduling and inventory management.
Reduce and eliminate transportation claims.
Eliminates the need for protective films. No packs to wrap, cover sheets to manage and film to remove prior to tempering with no waste film to dispose of.
Improve internal yields by reducing processing defects and subsequent rework and remakes.
Low-E Protect WR is similar in thickness to protective films. A thinner tpc layer than what is currently available in the market means have less protective material to edge delete. The cutting pressure is increased a small amount or a sharper wheel used. No special equipment required.
Low-E Protect WR washes away under standard Low-E removal conditions in glass washers. The materials re-disperse back into the water. Use requires a specific water turnover or refresh to keep concentration low and non-impactful.
