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.
