Solar Gard makes a coating called Armorcoat that significantly strengthens glass. We tried to break through it. Solar Gard makes a protective film for glass called Armorcoat. We took a baseball bat to it to see how well it holds up. Following is a full transcript of the video.
This glass is made to be nearly unbreakable. Normal glass shatters pretty easily. Solar Gard applies an Armorcoat film to glass. This film prevents it from shattering into small pieces. It also makes it harder to break through. This glass has a 14 millimeter film on the front side and a 2 millimeter sheet on the back.
Let’s count how many hits it takes.
The protective film isn’t bulletproof, but it’s designed to delay forced entry. Providing an extra 90 seconds to find safety. The film is installed on school windows around the US and several buildings in DC. US Capitol Building. Library of Congress. The J. Edgar Hoover FBI Building.
It can protect against flying debris during hurricanes.
