When constructing a beautiful new pool, or renovating an existing one, what’s the secret to keeping your glass fencing looking like new? The answer is simple – EnduroShield.

Maintaining the crystal clear appearance of brand new pool fencing is easy with EnduroShield protective glass treatment. EnduroShield creates a protective barrier that stops contaminants soaking into the glass. Instead, water and contaminants bead up on the protected surface and are easily wiped off with a damp microfibre cloth and mild detergent. EnduroShield keeps glass cleaner for longer, significantly reducing cleaning time. Not having to clean your pool glass so often saves you time and money.

Untreated glass surfaces are porous and absorb contaminants, resulting in glass that is etched and discoloured. Untreated glass near beaches is particularly susceptible to salt spray, which quickly leads to a build up which makes the glass hazy. Pool chemicals, chlorine and general air pollutants can also discolour glass, making it costly to clean and maintain.

With EnduroShield, standard glass is transformed into an easy clean, non-stick surface which remains water and oil repellent, and is backed by a true performance warranty. EnduroShield can be applied to new or existing, indoor and outdoor glass surfaces.

If you’re building or renovating, one option is to buy glass pre-treated with EnduroShield. This is available from a variety of glass and building suppliers. EnduroShield can also be applied onsite to existing glass by a professional applicator, or you can purchase a simple-to-apply EnduroShield DIY kit.

Protect your glass with EnduroShield and you can spend your weekend relaxing around the pool. EnduroShield cuts cleaning time by up to 90%. Also suitable for tiles, grout, stainless steel, and chrome.

It calls for a great deal of extra time in calculating the exact curvature to ensure that on completion of the install that the finished job is perfect. There is no room for error with curved glass as often the request for curved glass entails adhering to an existing curve.

The curve could be for an existing internal stair case, the side of a swimming pool that is well past the design phase or the curve of a spa bath. If the curves as well as radii do not pair up after that the task is pointless, the whole idea is to produce something unique and special that eliminates all the hard side straight runs that we typically come across with glass pool fencing or glass balustrade.

Whilst the wait time might be a little bit longer from the initial site visit to when we can set up because of the complex manufacturing procedure, we make sure our client totally comprehends this prior to we proceed with the order. These are projects where we like to measure typically 2 or 3 times to double check our templates before we send it off to be made.

The glass pool fencing used around this stunning pool, in Sydney’s Whale Beach, has been treated with EnduroShield. The treated glass fencing around the pool and on the double-tiered verandas allows for beautiful uninterrupted views.

Instead, water and contaminants bead up on the protected surface and are easily wiped off with a damp microfibre cloth and a mild detergent.

EnduroShield can be applied to new or existing glass surfaces. If you’re building a new home or pool, you can buy glass pool fencing pre-treated with EnduroShield from many glass and building suppliers.

EnduroShield can also be applied onsite to existing glass – simply call the EnduroShield Professional Applicator team, and they will apply it for you. Or for smaller glass areas, you can use our EnduroShield for glass DIY kit.

EnduroShield keeps glass cleaner for longer in between cleans, and significantly reduces upkeep. All that’s needed is a wipe over the treated glass with a microfibre cloth and a mild detergent, or a natural, eco-friendly product such as white vinegar.
