About Invisible Armor
Invisible Armor is a Nano-Scale Ceramic Quartz-based clear coat that protects most types hard surfaces by curing into a long-lasting hardened inert impervious barrier against all kinds of environmental and chemical risks.
It cures at room tempture, or comfortable outdoor temperatures, with no need for a heat/oven bake curing step.
Invisible Armor is an excellent Stain Resister, Impact Resister, Rust Resister, Oxidation Resister, UV Damage Resister, Corrosion Resister, Ice Resister. Its hydrophobic properties and hard impermeable thin surface coating layer provides both a hard protective shell and wisks moisture away from surfaces.
It forms a hardened impermeable hydrophobic layer that virtually elimiantes rust, stains, patinas, and other types of oxidation and corrosion. And for Ice resistance, it's hydrophobic properties reduce water's capillary effect, thus discouraging ice from buiding up.
Stop Stains, Scratches, Scuffs, Rust/Corrosion, UV Damage, Ice Buildup, Material degredation and disintegration without compromising structural load or integrity. Protect from not just one, but a wide, comprehensive list of environmental factors. Maven Invisible Armor blows away other corrison inhibiting coating options with unmatched chemical bonding and unbelievable nanoscale coverage over any surface profile. Extremelly long lasting & low maintenance.
Maven Invisible Armor provides an ultra-durable weather, rust, corrosion, and wear resistant clear coating. It avoids common protection failures like peeling or flaking.
Popular for coating: Tons of uses: Tables, Concrete Flooring, Epoxy Coatings & Finishes, Countertops, Shop Floors, Protecting Floor Markings, High Traffic Flooring, Street Signs, Park Signs, Outdoor Signage, Vehicles, Campers, Mobile Homes, RVs, Public Works Bridges, etc.

Important Notes on Satin & Matte finishes:
- For Satin & Matte finish products, you will receive inside the box/packaging a separate small baggie of white matting agent.
- This matting agent has been pre-measured for your container size.
- You will need to pour the matting agent powder into the Invisible Armor container and stirr it in.
- This will then emable the Satin or Matte finish that you are needing.
- If you do not pour and stir in the matting agent, you will simply have the gloss finish.
- Also, you will need to re-stir the sealant every 15 to 30 minutes as you are using it (and before use if it has been in storage for a while). The Matting agent does not dissolve, it stays suspended in solution and will eventually fall out (and to the bottom of the container) and need re-stirring.

How to apply:
Pressure sprayers: Apply using standard high-volume low-pressure sprayer (HVLP… popular with paint spraying and airbrushing) or hand-pump pressure sprayers with a 1.0-1.3 spray tip and air pressure set at 25 to 30 psi. Spray test pattern on cardboard or paper to ensure suitable 8 to 10 inch elongated spray pattern is achieved (approximately 1 ½ inch wide in the middle and fluid enough to cover but not puddle). Apply two thin coats, wet-on-tack, 2-3 WFT each, top to bottom, then right to left, keeping a wet edge. Second coat must be applied within 10-15 minutes while first coat is still tacky for optimum results.
Standard Paint Rollers: Use a high density ultra-smooth foam roller or ¼ inch nap roller to apply the coating in an up and down then left to right pattern to ensure complete coverage of the surface. Avoid overworking coating. Apply coating thinly, 2.0 to 3.0 wet film thicknesses (WFT) and continue forward. Avoid down pressure on the roller for best results in finish appearance.
Brush Application: Use high-quality China bristle to apply Invisible Armor in a cross-pattern; up and down, then left and right as quickly as possible. Avoid overworking coating, as it dries quickly. Avoid down pressure on the brush for best results in finish appearance. Apply light strokes using the tip brush to smooth out coating if necessary. Desired wet film thickness (WFT) is approximately 2.0 to 2.5 mils.
Dip Application: Apply a blanket of nitrogen gas over Invisible Armor in dip tank to prevent flashing of solvents and evaporation of product. Dip and agitate items (back and forth, up and down); remove to dry rack.

Surface Compatibility
- Decorative / Artistic Epoxy Works & Finishes- Wood, Hardwoods, Finished, Painted, Varnished Woods- Tiles, Mosaics, Clay- Stone, Brick, Ceramics- Stainless Steels & Most all Metals (Carbon Steel, Galvanized Steel, Iron, Aluminum, Copper, Brass, Bronze)- Painted Surfaces, Cured Paint Finishes, Dried Varnishes (powder coated, primed, existing sealants)- Hard Plastics (ABS, PVC, PTE)- Concrete, Smooth, Textured, Porous Flooring, walls, cinder blocks & concrete blocks, unglazed brick & tile, pavers, countertops (may require a sealing primer for bare porous concrete)
Known backups / known substitutes
- Epoxy coatings (e.g., for floors, industrial protective systems)- Polyurethane coatings (e.g., for metal surfaces, floors, automotive)- Acrylic clear coats (some may lack sufficient hardness or chemical resistance)- Silane/Siloxane penetrating sealers (e.g., Sikagard®-440 Clear, which penetrates rather than forming a surface film)- Paint Protection Film (PPF) (primarily automotive, but Maven Invisible Armor offers advantages over PPF in some aspects)- Other industrial protective coatings (e.g., fluoropolymer, polyaspartic, powder coating, siloxane, silicone rubber, vinyl ester)
Comparison Note
Maven Invisible Armor stands out as a nano-scale ceramic quartz-based clear coat, offering a comprehensive suite of protective properties including superior chemical inertness, extreme hardness, and hydrophobic characteristics. Unlike many traditional clear coats, it cures at room temperature and forms an ultra-thin, invisible barrier without altering the surface's aesthetic or feel. While epoxy and polyurethane coatings are common industrial protective solutions, Maven Invisible Armor's specific ceramic-quartz composition provides a distinct advantage in terms of its broad resistance profile (chemical, impact, scratch, UV, corrosion, mold/mildew, temperature) and ease of application compared to some alternatives that might require heat curing or have limitations in chemical resistance or durability. It also presents itself as a more robust and versatile solution than some automotive Paint Protection Films (PPF) in terms of chemical resistance and seamless application.
