Is a Nanocoating Water-repellent or Waterproof?

Unlike conventional impregnations that lie as a layer on the fabric, Nanotol Nanocoating coats individual fibers. The aqueous liquid is sprayed on and penetrates the fiber. After drying, the nanoparticles remain and coat each individual fiber of the yarn. Dirt beads off together with water. Residual dirt can be easily removed (shoes). Coloring liquids, such as red wine, are not absorbed into the fiber and can be removed without residue (tablecloth, couch, carpet). Fibers cannot get wet. Mildew stains are prevented (awning, sunshade, boat cover, garden cushions). BUT: If you want to stay dry in long-term heavy rain, you need waterproof shoes. This can only be achieved through a layer-forming impregnation. If you just want to be protected in case you accidentally step into a puddle, water-repellent is better, as it also has the dirt-repellent effect. However, you should not stand in the puddle.

The 4 Most Important Advantages of a Nanocoating for Rental Furniture or Furniture in Hospitality

Dirt-repellent Upholstery Fabrics

Nanotol coats each individual fiber of the fabrics and leather with nanoparticles and prevents the penetration of liquids and stains through abrasion.

Protection Against Soaking

The nanoparticles change the surface so that water can no longer penetrate the textile fibers or leather. Spherical droplets form on the surface and run off.

No Optical Change to the Surface

Intelligent fiber protection, ultra-thin, without solvents and therefore completely odorless. Nanotol Fabrics and Leather Protector is OEKO-TEX® certified, skin-friendly, and food-safe.

No Layer Formation on the Surface

Unlike conventional impregnations, Nanotol does not lie as a layer on top but penetrates into the fabric or leather. The gaps remain open, allowing air to continue circulating. Appearance and feel do not change!

Is Nanotol suitable for me?

Do the Drop Test

If you want to find out before purchasing whether Nanotol Protector for Fabrics is suitable for your application, do the Drop Test:

Drop water onto the fabric or leather you want to coat

Wait to see if the water is absorbed by the fabric

If the water does not penetrate on its own, you can help with a little pressure (sponge, cloth, brush)

Nanotol is suitable

if the fabric has absorbed the water. Then Nanotol Fabrics Protector can also penetrate and adhere.

Nanotol is not suitable

if the water could not penetrate. Then there may already be a coating on the fabric or the fiber composition contains too much plastic (polyester, polyamide, polyacrylic, elastane, Lycra, etc.), which cannot absorb water. In this case, Nanotol cannot penetrate and would not work.

Nanotol Protector for Fabrics and Leather is only affected by abrasion. In areas that have no abrasion, such as sides or backrests, the effect will last for many years. In frequently used areas (your favorite spot on the couch), the coating effect will eventually diminish. You can partially recoat these areas without seeing a transition. When you notice wear, simply spray Nanotol Protector for Fabrics and Leather on these spots again. The nanocoating only penetrates areas that are already water-absorbent again. After that, the protection is complete again.

Nanotol is also wash-stable. Please use a mild detergent for cleaning.

The coverage of Nanotol Protector for Fabrics and Leather ranges from 10-20 m² per liter.

This is because different materials can absorb different amounts of water. Some absorb more, some less of the coating. The fabric should always be saturated.

We recommend about 1 liter for a couch. If you have any Nanotol left over, simply coat your shoes or garden cushions with the rest.

Nanotol Protector for Fabrics and Leather needs 24 hours to fully polymerize.

Nanotol is wash-stable. Please use a mild detergent for cleaning. Due to the nanopolymer coating, dirt or stains can be very easily removed, as they have not penetrated the textile fiber but lie only on top.
