Question:
Do I have to seal textiles on both sides ?

Question:
Is ‘Percenta Textile & Leather’ self-cleaning ?
Answer:
No, there are no self-cleaning surfaces. ‘Percenta Textile & Leather Sealant’ has an anti adhesion ability, which prevents liquids from getting into the fibres. Contaminants are simply repelled and the cleaning is easier and the costs for cleaning agents will be reduced.
Question:
How do the textiles have to be pre-treated ?
Answer:
Washing powder remains need to be completely removed by washing only with clear water.
Question:
Will the breathability and grip of the textiles affected ?
Answer:
Breathability and grip of the textiles won’t be affected when using the nano sealant as required.
Question:
What temperatures can the treated textiles washed at ?
Answer:
Maximum 60° Celsius. There will be no need to wash at above 60 ° Celsius when sealed properly. Normally washing at 30 or 40 ° Celsius is enough to clean the treated textiles. Only a little washing powder is needed, because the fibres are not as dirty through the anti adhesion ability. Don’t use washing agents with surfactants/detergents that damage nano particles.
Question:
Does ‘Percenta Leather & Textile’ protect the colours against UV radiation ?
Answer:
’Percenta Leather & Textile’ is UV stable, but doesn’t protect colours against bleaching and fading.
