Product Name
Maven UV Glass PG High Viscosity (3500 cps) Plate Glass & Pit Fill Resin
Brief Description
Maven UV Glass PG is a specialized "thick" UV resin designed for repairs where gravity is an enemy. With a viscosity of 3500 cps (similar to honey), it is formulated to fill large surface pits, "bullseyes," and chips on vertical glass without dripping or draining out. It is the industry standard "Pit Fill" resin used to cap off windshield repairs or to fill gouges in commercial plate glass windows. Once cured under UV light, it provides a weather-tight seal with exceptional optical clarity and shore hardness.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Windshield Pit Filling: The final "cap" step in windshield repair to seal the impact point after filling the break.
- Plate Glass Repair: Filling surface chips and gouges in commercial storefront windows.
- Vertical Glass: Repairs on architectural glass where thin resins would run down the pane.
- Large Impact Breaks: Filling the center void of large "star" or "bullseye" breaks.
- Edge Repair: Smooting out chipped edges on glass furniture or shelving.
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Construction/ Building Services
- Automotive Service/Repair
- Transportation/ Specialty Vehicle
- General Manufacturing
- Government & Military
- Retail, Retail Stores
- Fabrication
Special and Unique Features
- High Viscosity (3500 cps): Thixotropic nature allows it to bridge large gaps and stay in place on vertical surfaces.
- All-Weather Durability: Engineered to withstand rain, wiper abrasion, and thermal cycling.
- High Shore Hardness: Cures to a rock-hard finish that resists scratching and polishing swirls.
- Optical Clarity: Refractive index matched to glass for invisible repairs.
- Surface Curing: Formulated to cure non-tacky (when covered with a curing tab) for a smooth finish.
Key Properties
- Viscosity: 3,500 cps (Thick / High Viscosity)
- Cure Mechanism: UV Light (365nm - 405nm)
- Color: Clear / Colorless
- Application Temp: Ideal above 40°F (warm glass prevents thermal shock)
- Container: UV-blocking black bottle to prevent premature curing.
Surface Compatibility
- Laminated Automotive Glass (Windshields)
- Plate Glass (Commercial Windows)
- Tempered Glass (Surface chips only)
- Architectural Glazing
Known backups / known substitutes
- Standard Windshield Resin (20-60 cps): Much thinner, only for internal cracks, will run out of pits.
- Maven UV Glass LV (Low Viscosity): The partner product used for the inside of the crack.
- Pit Fill Resins: Generic term for this class of high-viscosity adhesive.
Comparison Note
Maven UV Glass PG (3500 cps) is the "Mortar" to the "Grout" of standard resins. Standard injection resins are water-thin (20 cps) to wick into tight cracks. If you used them to fill a surface pit, they would drip out or shrink, leaving a divot. Maven PG is thick enough to stand proud of the surface, allowing you to scrape it flush after curing for a perfect, smooth repair.
