HeyGears UltraGlaze ClearG115 Gloss Glaze Protective Varnish

The HeyGears UltraGlaze ClearG115 Gloss Glaze transparent protective varnish is an advanced finishing coating designed to provide a brilliant glossy aesthetic (Gloss value 115 GU) and a high-performance protective layer to 3D printed surfaces. Developed for application on miniatures, figurines, consumer electronics (3C) housings, wearable devices, and design components, ClearG115 bonds tenaciously to the substrate, achieving an adhesion standard of Class 0 (ISO 2409), ensuring total absence of peeling or detachment over time. In addition to enhancing the aesthetic quality of the part, the glaze increases the mechanical properties of the coated models, increasing impact toughness (+22%) and flexural strength (+17%). Certified skin-safe, it offers exceptional resistance to UV rays, preventing yellowing, cracking, and color alteration even with prolonged exposure.

Key Features

• Class 0 Adhesion (ISO 2409): Ensures an extremely tenacious molecular bond with the printed surface, offering superior resistance to peeling and mechanical removal.
• Mirror-like Gloss (115 GU): Elevates the aesthetic quality of the part with a transparent, ultra-glossy finish at a 60° angle, ideal for enhancing transparencies and complex details.
• Increased Toughness and Strength: Reinforces the structure of the coated part, increasing notched impact strength (+22.0%) and flexural strength (+17.0%).
• UV and Aging Resistance: Tested up to 600 hours of UV exposure (ASTM G154), equivalent to 8 years of indoor use or 1 year outdoor, maintaining color stability ( △E < 2) without yellowing or cracking.
• Skin-Safe (Biocompatible) Certification: Successfully passes in vitro cytotoxicity (ISO 10993-5), skin sensitization (ISO 10993-10), and skin irritation (ISO 10993-23) tests.
• Wear and Alcohol Resistance: High surface abrasion tolerance (0.04% mass loss) and proven resistance to over 200 alcohol rubbing cycles.

Target Applications

• Modeling and Miniatures: Action figures, collectibles, and miniatures with transparent finishes or high-quality glossy details.
• Consumer Electronics (3C): Protective shells, earphone cases (IEMs), portable devices, and smart device accessories.
• Wearable Devices: Custom-fit earphones, ergonomic inserts, and protective elements in contact with the skin.
• High-End Aesthetic Prototyping: Transparent components or functional prototypes that require a durable and brilliant UV protective coating.
