| What
Is Permagard? The Technology |
PERMAGARD is a concentrated
emulsion of
amino methoxy functional ethyl polymers which
form a plasticized film on all hard paint and
gel coats by reacting with the moisture in the
air. Once the film has cured (24hrs) it will strongly
adhere to the surface.

|
| SPECIAL PROPERTIES |
High corrosive resistance,
excellent water
repellence and deep gloss shine |
|
| HOW IT WORKS |
All painted surfaces
of the aircraft are
thoroughly cleaned with PERMAGARD
multipurpose cleaning solution prior to the
application of the reactive polymer treatment.
This solution removes grime, wax or silicone
residues which may exist on new or used painted
surfaces. As the treated surface cures, the plasticized
molecules elongate, interlocking with each other
to create a tough bonded durable coating. |
|
| PERMAGARD’s reactive
polymer is applied using low speed oscillating polishing
machines. The rotation and pressure created by the
polishers commences the curing process. |

Advantage |
ASSET PROTECTION
|
| PERMAGARD’s sophisticated
‘reactive polymer’ and UV filtering
technology protects aircraft paint against fading
and oxidation thereby maintaining the paints original
aesthetic brilliance. |
|
BRAND PROTECTION AND
REDUCTION IN
DOWNTIME |
PERMAGARD’s unique
polymer gloss spectrum ingredients react with the
painted surface to produce an incredibly high gloss,
low friction permanent coating. This protective
coating dramatically reduces cleaning time and costs
by reducing the frequency and ground time
required for washes. |
|
PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENT
& FUEL
SAVINGS |
PERMAGARD has been proven
to reduce
parasitic drag on business jets, thereby
reducing engine cruise power settings,
ultimately saving between 2-4% on fuel burn. |
|
| ENVIRONMENT |
Once applied, PERMAGARD
can be
maintained without the use of harsh cleaning chemicals
which damage aviation paints. As well as being detrimental
to the environment. |
|
|
| Ultimate
Protection |
The PERMAGARD concept
is based on the idea
that “prevention is better than cure”.
It is
cheaper and easier to repair and maintain the
Permagard coating than that of the high value
objects surface that we seek to protect. Costly
repainting of aging aircraft can be prevented
simply by removing all oxidized paint using
PERMAGARD’S revolutionary treatment. |

|
Professional trained
technicians apply
PERMAGARD to the painted surfaces of the
aircraft. The product bonds and hardens over
the surface of the paint, leaving a permanent
transparent high gloss barrier between the paintand
the environment. |
Once treated
with Permagard the aircraft is
totally sealed and protected from the day to
day elements that effect and degrade
aviation paints. The only maintenance
required is to maintain the integrity of the
Permagard coating leaving the paint
protected and undamaged. Permagards
reactive polymer coating continually
protects against corrosive attack from
runway contaminants, skydrol, salt, pollution,
oxidation and harsh UV light that together
cause paint to oxidize and fade. |
