Shower Glass Treatments

According to the U.S. Geological Survey, 85% of American homes are supplied with hard water. Water described as "hard" is high in dissolved minerals, especially calcium and magnesium. Over time, these minerals can build up on shower glass, making it appear dirty or cloudy.

"I had Diamon-Fusion® applied on my shower door several years ago and it is still very effective and has more than exceeded my expectations after all of these years. I also am extremely pleased with your Consumer Maintenance Kit which has saved me several hundred dollars in potential replacement costs."

“The Academy’s experience with DFI and its product has been very positive. The end product is everything I was told it would be resulting in lower labor and material costs. My custodians spend less time wiping sticky fingerprints from the glass using only a microfiber cloth and no chemicals. The feedback from the custodians has been positive too; ‘I don’t know what you did to the glass’ one of them said to me, ‘but we like it.’”

                - Jock Young, Facilities Manager, California Academy of Science, June 2009

'ShowerGuard glass stays beautiful because its surface is protected during manufacturing through a unique ion beam process. This patented technology permanently seals the ShowerGuard glass surface, stopping corrosion before it starts. Unlike spray-on or wipe-on treatments that eventually wear off, the protection provided by ShowerGuard glass is part of the glass itself, so it never needs to be reapplied. That means your shower stays beautiful, shower after shower, year after year.

 

No matter how hard you try to keep standard shower glass clean, eventually it gets ugly. That's because hard water, soap and even everyday cleaning agents cause a corrosive chemical reaction that roughens the surface of the glass.

This gives spots, residue and scum something to hang on to – making your glass almost impossible to keep clean. Over time, the glass can appear dirty – no matter how often you try to scrub it clean.



ShowerGuard allows shower enclosure customization without sacrificing scum resistance. Thanks to Guardian's patented sealed surface technology, ShowerGuard glass stays beautiful and scum resistant shower after shower.


Available in 3/8" and 1/2" thick Glass, ShowerGuard allows homeowners to custom create spa-like environments they've always wanted-without committing themselves to a lifetime of heavy-duty cleaning.





Guardian ClarVista         (View Brochure)

You can't tell by looking at it, or even by touching it, but glass is a surprisingly porous material at the microscopic level. Repeated exposure to the kind of heat, humidity and cleaning products that you'd find in a bathroom can cause corrosion. This corrosion can cause ordinary glass to change appearance –making your glass shower look cloudy. Even some products designed to guard against this corrosion still degrade over time.

​Clarvista is Different

​

It has a coating, fused to the glass, sealing the glass surface to provide a protective barrier. The coating withstands the high temperatures required to thermally temper (strengthen) glass to meet safety codes for shower enclosures. Which is why, with regular maintenance, shower enclosures built with any of the available varieties of Clarvista glass can keep their "like new" look longer.

 

​

Why Clarvista Glass?



After harsh accelerated exposure tests to the heat, humidity and chemical exposure in a typical bathroom, Clarvista glass showed no signs of corrosion.
After these same tests, uncoated glass showed significant signs of corrosion.
Clarvista glass stands up to the rigors of routine cleaning better than other shower glass products. And most non-abrasive, off-the-shelf cleaners can be used on clavista glass.
