Nano4-Shoes® is a water-based nanotechnology product and it is completely environmentally friendly. After applying the product and upon completion of the curing process (24 hours), a thin layer of SiO2 (silicon dioxide) seals the protected area. Whether you wish to remain dry during exposure to rain or to protect yourself from getting soiled accidentally, you can always rely on Nano4-Shoes®. This innovative nanotechnology product offers invisible protection for your shoes against water, dirt and stains. Nano4-Shoes® does not affect the look, feel, colour or breathability of the textile. It easy to clean and completely safe for skin contact.
Nano4-Shoes® covers every single fiber with an invisible, non-adhesive coating. The product protection prevents dirt form sticking on the textile. It also blocks the absorption of mud from the fibers.
Stains from hot or cold liquids, such as water, coffee, wine, oil, syrup, ketchup and sauces, are easily removed from every fabric over which Nano4-Shoes® is applied. Simply by dabbing with an absorbent cleaning cloth, wet stains vanish, and the fabric goes back to its original state, as if never stained.

  • Clean the fabric prior to using Nano4-Shoes® to avoid blocking dirt and stains under the protective coating.

  • Spray with Nano4-Shoes® from a distance of 15cm and apply Nano4-Shoes® evenly over the surface you wish to protect. After applying the product, it takes 24 hours (at 20 °C) for the fabric to be fully cured. The time required for curing may vary depending on ambient temperatures. Do not attempt to accelerate the curing process. Allow the formation of bonds between the nanomaterials to ensure maximum repellency.

  • For alternative application, immerse the fabric into Nano4-Shoes®.

Application method

Nano4-Shoes

Duration of the protection:

Protection for regularly washed textiles may last between 20 and 30 washes. After that, re-apply Nano4-Shoes® to achieve the same results.

Consumption:

The quantity of the product per use depends on the application method and the surface porosity.

In any event, the consumption will be between 30ml/m² and 200ml/m².

This means that 1 litre can cover surfaces ranging from 5m² to 33m². An easy test to determine the amount of product required is to spray 1m² of the surface with plain water. The quantity of the water needed defines the exact consumption.
