Frequently asked questions
How does the knitted backing affect performance?
The knitted fabric backing gives GLAZE greater stretch and flexibility compared to woven-backed vinyls, making it easier to work around curved and complex upholstery forms without puckering.
What cleaning agents are safe for GLAZE?
Start with clear warm water, then a mild liquid detergent solution, then isopropyl alcohol. For stubborn stains, a diluted bleach solution of 10% bleach and 90% water can be applied, then rinsed thoroughly with a clean, damp cloth.
Is GLAZE suitable for high-traffic commercial environments?
Yes. With 100,000+ double rubs under the Wyzenbeek method and a fire rating of Spread of Flame Index 0 under AS 1530.3, GLAZE meets the durability and safety requirements for most commercial indoor applications.
