Heller Glänz Waterproofer is revolutionary because it combines waterproofing and protection and is longer lasting than other leading brands in the market place. It’s unique formulation allows it to penetrate the fabric further, therefore waterproofing from below the surface, which leaves the textured finish of the original fabric intact.

Heller Glänz Fabric Waterproofer and Stain Repellent was developed to protect and extend the life of marine fabrics including acrylics, Sunbrella, nylon, cotton, canvas, polyester, vinyl, and leather. Helps prevent damage from moisture, mildew, oil and grease stains, bird droppings and airborne pollutants. Perfect for boat & sail covers, dodgers, boat shoes, bimini tops, vinyl seats & cushions, carpets, tents, awnings, patio furniture.

Most mills, including Sunbrella, apply a fluorocarbon polymer to the cloth at the factory for waterproofing and stain repellency. This is the most durable and effective waterproofing technology currently known. (A polymer is like Teflon for cloth.)

Heller Glänz’s Fabric Waterproofer uses virtually the same fluorocarbon technology as the mills do and is U.V. Resistent and Mildew Resistent.

WHY USE Heller Glänz Fabric Waterproofer?
Heller Glänz’s Fabric Waterproofer uses virtually the same fluorocarbon technology as the mills do to replenish the polymer lost from the cloth due to age, weather and cleaning. Sunbrella, for example, recommends replenishing waterproofing after each cleaning with a polymer-waterproofing agent. Application is therefore more effective, more durable, and easier to use than using a less compatible agent.
Heller Glänz’s Fabric Waterproofer has been laboratory tested against the five leading products in the industry and has been found to be superior.
WHY NOT USE A SILICONE BASED WATERPROOFING PRODUCT?
While cheaper to make, silicone-based products actually attract dirt and dust which “sticks” to the cloth. Not only does the cloth get dirty, but the dirt also provides the medium on which mildew grows. Polymer based products do not have this problem.
WHY NOT USE A WATER BASED PRODUCT?
Water based products too are less expense than solvent based products at first glance. However, because some waterproofing is still left in the fabric even after a thorough cleaning, getting effective coverage using a water-based product is almost impossible because the existing waterproofing rejects the new application.
BESIDES MARINE CANVAS MATERIALS LIKE SUNBRELLA, WHAT CAN Fabric Waterproofer BE USED ON?
Fabric Waterproofer can be used on virtually any material found on a boat, including vinyl, leather, carpeting and cloth cushions.
HOW MUCH AREA WILL ONE BOTTLE OF Fabric Waterproofer COVER?
In most cases, a 32oz. bottle will cover approximately 175 square feet. This can vary according to the absorbency of the material is being treated and how heavy the application is.
HOW FREQUENTLY SHOULD MY MARINE CANVAS BE WATERPROOFED?
Waterproofing should be applied at least every time the canvas is cleaned, since even the lightest detergent will remove much of the repellency of any waterproofing agent. Fabric Waterproofer will last a year in the harshest of weather conditions, however, under most conditions, it will last several seasons.
ARE 2 TREATMENTS MORE EFFECTIVE THAN ONE? WILL SATURATING THE MATERIAL PROVIDE MORE PROTECTION?
Although one treatment should be sufficient, a second application or higher saturation will provide more waterproofing to the fabric’s threads. For smaller fabric, we also often apply Fabric Waterproofer by dipping the fabric and then allowing it to “drip-dry” over an open container. The Fabric Waterproofer that has dripped off the fabric is then reusable.

The product itself is also remarkably quick and easy to use. All that is required to waterproof and protect any previously untreated surface are two simple spray-on applications.

Heller Glänz Protector is fully compatible with other fabric protectors, so previous use with other waterproofing agents will not affect the product’s performance.

easy to use, trigger-spray Waterproofer and Protector, which can be used not only on tent and awning canvas, but also on a wide variety of other surfaces, including cloth, upholstery, nylon and carpets.

Heller Glänz Waterproofer also has a much wider use than just tents and awnings and can be used effectively on camping furniture, equipment and fabrics, especially caravan upholstery, since it protects against general spills like tea, coffee, coloured soft drinks and red wine etc. which can be notoriously difficult to remove.

Tests to date have shown that Heller Glänz spray-on Waterproofer has been more effective and greater in durability than other current leading brands. During initial trials, samples were sent to different manufacturers, retailers and a number of independent testing adjudicators. Without exception, everyone was impressed by the product's performance. One test in particular was staggering to view. A piece of ordinary kitchen paper towel was treated and then left to float in a bath of water. The paper towel had still not absorbed a single drop of water after 5 Days.

DIRECTIONS
1) Clean fabric first. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry. Fabric Waterproofer is most effective on clean, dry material.
2) Shake well.
3) Spray, dip, brush or roll on evenly until fabric has a "wet" look - material does not need to be saturated.
4) Allow to dry for 6 - 12 hours for maximum effectiveness.
5) Use Fabric Waterproofer seasonally or after each cleaning.
