Application Procedure for
Water Stain Removal

NOT FOR USE ON PLASTICS, ACRYLICS OR POLYCARBONATES

For best results please familiarize yourself with products and their correct application before beginning process.
Note-Nitrile gloves are included and recommended for sensitive skin protection.

Step One

Wash all glass that is going to be treated today to remove any grit or salt crystals from the surface. Prop windshield wipers out of the way to ease procedure. Lightly spray glass pane with water and then apply a small amount of Compound Lx using the applicator in the top of the jar. Using the blue handled scrubber provided, scrub in small areas until spotting is gone, being sure to keep surface moist and Compound Lx pasty at all times. Continue until the window is entirely free of stains. Continue with the cleaning, the heavier the staining the longer the initial cleaning will take. Pay special attention to edges and corners, using applicator from top of jar if needed in the smaller areas. Wash the entire glass surfaces and surrounding areas to remove all traces of Compound Lx. Thoroughly dry the glass and other areas, especially overhanging areas that may cause drips onto glass. Any water left will prevent Protectorant 98 from sealing the glass.

Steps Two and Three should not be performed if glass is hotter than 120°F.

Step Two

Using a clean, dry cotton rag wipe glass using 70% isopropyl or denatured alcohol. This makes glass squeaky clean and free of any moisture, fingerprints, silicone, salt, soap, etc. From this point on no water or dirt must come in contact with window until the completion of Step Three.

Step Three

Before beginning Step Three make sure at least 25 square feet of glass is prepped and ready. Protectorant 98 evaporates quickly and should be used within 1/2 hour of activating vial. To apply Protectorant 98 activate vial by pressing once on the dot in the middle of the vial. Squeeze a small amount onto a cotton applicator provided in kit, then apply sparingly, first horizonally, then in overlapping vertical strokes, being sure to cover entire surface. Note- Protectorant 98 doesn’t haze during application. Change cotton pad as needed and continue until all surfaces are coated.

If after completing Step Three you still have Protectorant 98 left use remainder to recoat windshield areas. Leave coating on all surfaces approximately an hour, then wash all areas well with mild boat soap and water, squeegie or chamois windows and they are done for a year.

Areas with alot of exposure and windshield wiper action may need reapplication before the year is over. If so just repeat Steps Two and Three as needed.

Annual Re-Treatment is the same as the first treatment except instead of removing staining with Step One you are simply removing remaining Protectorant 98 and then reapplying.

Notice: In extreme cases, Compound Lx may dry out teak decks and re-oiling may be necessary. Keep dry teak areas well flushed with water during application of CGS.
