COVID-19 Update

COVID-19 Update – March 18th, 2020

At NanoSlic, the safety and well-being of our employees and our customers is always our priority, and we recognize the important role we play in providing our customers with supplies and services during this critical time. We are actively monitoring the COVID-19/Coronavirus situation and taking steps to help keep our communities safe. We wanted to share with you some steps we are taking.

Aligning with public health authorities

We are closely monitoring updates from the Centers for Disease Control and the World Health Organization regarding COVID-19. We will continue to seek guidance from these agencies, public health officials and government agencies on an ongoing basis.

Protecting our employees and customers

As our employees interact with customers and the general public, we have taken steps to limit exposure to the virus. We have put restrictions on travel, postponed large-scale events, limited the size of meetings, provided remote-work solutions, and continue to reinforce safe behavior in every work environment. Additionally, we have protocols in place for increased cleaning, disinfecting and appropriate quarantine procedures based on recommendations by government and health agencies.

Our commitment to our customers

The role our company plays within your supply chain is incredibly important to us. We have been developing manufacturing measures and proper contingency plans to ensure minimal disruption in the supply of products and services for our customers during this time. As developments happen across the country and within our company, we will notify our customers immediately about any changes.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us immediately. As always, thank you for being a customer and for your continued trust as we manage through this time together.

Thank you,

Anti-Graffiti Coating

The following report appeared in The State newspaper March 04, 2018.

For the second week in a row, vandals have struck churches with vulgar graffiti about the late Billy Graham. Sunday, it was discovered that the Upward Baptist Church in Henderson County, N.C. was the latest target of vandalism.

Church members at the congregation in Flat Rock arrived Sunday morning to find vulgar and offensive language spray-painted on the church building, according to multiple reports.”

Graffiti-based vandalism is on the rise in the United States, costing an estimated $112 billion in annual cleanup expenses. Although urban areas face the most issues, graffiti is found in all areas of the country.

When it gets down to chemistry and physics, graffiti is simply this; one coating applied to another coating. Because paints and inks are designed to stick to the underlying surface, graffiti becomes permanent once the paint dries.

It then becomes very difficult and costly to remove. Harsh chemicals and pressure washing is often used to remove graffiti but can damage the underlying paint. In addition, it is extremely labor-intensive.

NanoSlic

NanoSlic NS 240 is a permanent anti-graffiti coating that offers a powerful combination of performance, cost-effectiveness and ease-of-use. When applied over paint or a base metal or plastic surface, NS 240 offers a surface that spray paint, markers and inks will simply not adhere to. It provides a long-term deterrent.

NS 240 uses a primary binder polymer that is ceramic, i.e largely composed of silica. As the coating cures, highly non-polar molecules align themselves in such a way to form the coating’s surface. Unlike other anti-graffiti coatings, the surface is both hydrophobic and oleophobic, similar to polytetrafluoroethylene (Teflon) and is completely resistant to all types of paints and inks. Any paint that does remain is easily washed away.

The resulting coating is highly resistant to all types of graffiti materials. In addition, NanoSlic anti-graffiti coatings are capable of maintaining properties under adverse conditions such as sunlight, humidity, chemicals, and abrasion. It can be viewed as an ultra-protective topcoat, offering a graffiti-proof surface. Clear gloss or matte versions enhance or maintain the underlying coating’s aesthetics.
