More about the series Antireflex...
Special coating for eliminating reflections in optical instruments: The coating eliminates up to 99.3% of stray light at an angle of 60°. At 20° stray light, it even eliminates up to 99.9%!
Two variants: The solvent-based coating is available in smooth and rough finishes to ensure that the right coating is available for every type of application.
- The coatings have been specially developed to adhere to almost all surfaces encountered in the field of optics, especially metal and glass. They are fast drying and highly adhesive.
- The paints are temperature-resistant in a range from -30°C to +90°C.
- One 100 ml can is sufficient for approx. 0.5-2 square metres, depending on the thickness of the paint application.
Noctutec Antireflex paints can be applied with a soft brush or paint roller. The paint must be thoroughly mixed before use. The surface must be clean and free of dust and greasy residues.
However, both paints can also be applied with a spray gun. A spray pressure of 4 to 6 bar with a nozzle size of 1.5 is required. Before painting, adjust the spray viscosity with VK-80 thinner. Application with a spray gun ensures an even surface and is clearly superior to application with a brush or paint roller.
When purchasing tools, make sure they are resistant to solvents! Clean tools immediately after use with VK-80 special thinner.
Smaller areas can be painted undiluted. For larger areas, dilution with VK-80 special thinner is recommended to allow sufficient time for processing. Always carry out brush tests before starting to apply the paint to the object!
Observe all instructions in the data sheet (PDF information sheet under "Downloads") for the respective product. Only process the products in well-ventilated rooms!
Made in Germany! noctutec Antireflex lacquers were developed in collaboration with a chemist specialising in lacquers and a German lacquer manufacturer.
The best result is obtained by using the varnish SL-94 rough as a base and applying a thin layer of SL-94 smooth on top.
