When it comes to keeping wheels in pristine condition, the TMWORKS Proteam Hydro Coating is a game-changer. This award-winning innovation takes bike protection to the next level, utilizing groundbreaking Silicon dioxide (SiO₂) technology to safeguard your ride from the harshest elements. Let’s dive into what makes this hydro coating truly exceptional and why it’s a must-have for any serious cyclist.
What is TMWORKS Proteam Hydro Coating?
The Proteam Hydro Coating is an advanced paint protection solution specifically engineered for bicycles and bicycle components. Unlike traditional coatings, which may offer limited protection against wear and tear, the Proteam Hydro Coating is designed to shield your bike frame and components from a wide range of environmental hazards. From relentless UV rays to corrosive road salts and stubborn dirt, this coating ensures your bike remains in top-notch condition for up to two years.
But what sets this coating apart from others on the market? The answer lies in the innovative use of Silicon dioxide (SiO₂).
The Science Behind SiO₂ Technology
Silicon dioxide, commonly known as silica, is a natural compound found in materials like quartz and sand. It has become a staple in many high-tech coatings due to its incredible durability and protective qualities. When integrated into the Proteam Hydro Coating, SiO₂ forms a robust, transparent layer over your bike’s surfaces, creating a shield that’s both water-repellent and dirt-resistant.
Here’s why Silicon dioxide is such a powerful component:
-
Hydrophobic Properties: SiO₂-based coatings are incredibly hydrophobic, meaning they repel water like magic. When applied to your bike and components, this property ensures that water beads up and rolls off surfaces instead of seeping into cracks or crevices. This makes your bike significantly easier to clean and keeps it looking spotless for longer.
-
Dirt Repellence: Beyond just water, the SiO₂ technology also resists dirt, mud, and other contaminants. These substances are less likely to adhere to the surface, reducing the frequency and intensity of cleaning required. Whether you’re tearing up trails or cruising city streets, your bike stays cleaner with minimal effort.
-
UV Protection: Over time, exposure to sunlight can cause paint to fade and components to deteriorate. The Proteam Hydro Coating acts as a barrier against harmful UV rays, maintaining your bike’s vibrant colors and extending the life of its components.
-
Chemical Resistance: The SiO₂ layer also provides excellent resistance against chemicals like road salts and oils that can cause corrosion. This is particularly important for cyclists who ride in harsh conditions, as it prevents the long-term damage that these substances can inflict.
The Precision of Airbrush Application: Why It Matters
At TMWORKS, we don’t just rely on the superior technology of our Proteam Hydro Coating — we also ensure that the application process is just as advanced. We apply the coating using a specialized airbrush, a technique that offers several significant advantages over traditional methods, such as using an applicator pad.
Why an Airbrush?
-
Even Coverage: An airbrush allows for the even distribution of the coating across every inch of your bike’s surface. Unlike an applicator pad, which can leave streaks or uneven layers, the fine mist created by the airbrush ensures a smooth, consistent coat. This uniform application is crucial for maximizing the protective benefits of the SiO₂ technology.
-
Avoiding Contamination: When using applicator pads, there’s always a risk of contaminants being transferred from the pad to the bike’s surface. With an airbrush, the coating is applied directly from the spray gun, minimizing the risk of contamination and ensuring a purer, cleaner finish.
-
Controlled Thickness: An airbrush gives our technicians the ability to control the thickness of the coating with high precision. This means that each layer can be applied to the exact specifications needed, ensuring optimal performance and durability without wasting material or creating overly thick layers that might compromise the bike’s aesthetics or performance.
