2Why problems with glass and aluminum?
Glass and aluminum surfaces are not flat The
pores in the surface makes pollution grip and
makes removal difficult.
3Causes
Bad or poor maintenance
Heavy Pollution Deposits
Acid Damage
4- Willems America restoration products are
specialized to renovate and protect any kind of
glass (including the metal coating on reflecting
glass) and any kind of aluminum surface.

6WHERE TO USE AND PROBLEMS WE SOLVE Willems
America products are renovating and protecting
agents, used in solving problems that are
beyond cleaning. We solve problems like Hard
Water stains Concrete Calcium runs and other
run-offs Mineral Staining Acid stains Watermarks L
oss of reflective capacity, shine and
luster Surface Haze Any problem that is not a
physical damage of the surface.

9CALC-OFFRemoves mineral deposits, hard stains,
rainbow stains on normal glass
- CALC-OFF renovates and decalcifies glass
surfaces. The product contains of a micro
polishing powder in order to remove difficult to
solve problems. Soft glass types like insulating
glass units fabricated by Viracon (VE2-552)
exterior lites must be restored with care. This
type of is ¼ green tinted heat strengthened
glass with a Low-E coating on the 2 surface can
produce a known banded effect when viewed at a
right angle when in direct sunlight. A jobsite
mock up is required to determine the number of
restoration steps and to set a quality standard
for the overall project. - A glass surface is not flat. The pores in the
surface gives pollution a chance to grip on the
surface of the glass and pollution stuck in these
pores are normally very difficult to remove. -
- During the restoration with CALC-OFF, the
structure of the glass surface will be changed in
the way that the glass surface will be flattened
out. The tops of the glass will be flattened
out . During this process all existing pollution
will be removed from the glass. - The result is a flat glass surface, free from
pollution. The surface now has a very low
friction, a fact that makes it very difficult for
pollution to stick to the surface. In addition,
Renotec, a silicone based protecting layer may be
applied to produce a high water and dirt
repellent on top of the surface, making future
cleaning easier, cheaper and faster and the need
for future cleaning will be less frequent.

11RENOTECRestoring agent for removes mineral
deposits soft glass or float glass
- RENOTEC renovates and protects all glass types
like metal oxide/ pyrolitic coated glass and in a
one-time application procedure. The product can
be used to renovate float glass surface as well.
A reflective glass renovated with RENOTEC will
obtain a 100 renovation of the reflective
capacity. - A glass surface is not flat. The pores in the
surface gives pollution a chance to grip on the
surface of the glass and pollution stuck in these
pores are normally very difficult to remove. - During the restoration with RENOTEC, the
structure of the metal coating or the glass will
be changed. The tops of the glass will be
flattened out and the pores will be filled up.
During this process all existing pollution will
be removed from the surface. - The result is a flat surface, free from
pollution. The surface now has a very low
friction, a fact that makes it very difficult for
pollution to stick to the surface. In addition, a
silicone based protecting layer is added on top
of the surface, making future cleaning easier,
cheaper and faster and the need for future
cleaning will be less frequent.

17ALU-CLEANRestoring agent for powder coated
aluminum and painted surfaces
- ALU-CLEAN renovates and protects powder coated
and painted surfaces in a one-time application
procedure. The product is developed to renovate
the paint layer and restores the original color
of the panel. - During aging, the top layer of the coating will
get less compact and pores will occur in the
surface. The less compact top surface makes the
color of the paint fade, shadows occur and the
shine and luster disappears due to UV and natural
weathering. -
- During the restoration with ALU-CLEAN, the
destroyed, less hard top layer of the surface
will be removed. New and undamaged molecules of
the coating will be brought up to the surface and
restore the original color, shine and luster. -
- At the same time, a silicone based protection
layer will fill up all possible pores and makes
the surface 25 stronger. The protection layer
has a very low friction. Therefore ,dirt will not
stick to the surface so easy, future cleaning
will be easier, cheaper and faster. Normally the
surface is cleaned with pure water after
restoration and the need for cleaning will be
less frequent.

19RENU-ALU AND PRO-ALU SystemRestoring agent for
anodized aluminum
- RENU-ALU and PRO-ALU renovates and protects
anodized aluminum in a two-step application
procedure. The products are developed to renovate
the anodized layer without destroying or removing
it. - The anodized layer contains of pores where
pollution easily sticks and is difficult to
remove. The result is a bad looking, discolored
surface. - During the renovation with RENU-ALU, the anodized
surface will be restored to original looks
without damaging the anodized layer. All
pollution on the surface will be removed. -
- After restoration, PRO-ALU is applied on the
surface. PRO-ALU seals up all pores in the
surface, making the surface low friction and
glossy. The surface will now get less dirty, it
will be easier, faster and cheaper to clean. -
- The protective coating provided by PRO-ALU will
wear of within a period of time (in normal cases
at least 3 years). It will not peel off or come
off in flakes.

application the products will offer a protection
of 2-5 years, depending on the nature of the
surface, quality, age, surrounding pollution
(e.g. airport, heavy industry in the area etc.),
future maintenance of the building etc.
