Great idea for Bridal Bouquet and Affair Centerpieces preservation

unique protective coatings for use on everyday objects and specialized
applications. Commonly available coatings have a basic polymer
composition. Liquiguard Technologies coatings are complex formulations
that will meet and exceed the requirements of the job at hand. Most of
our coatings are water based, eco friendly and present no health
hazards. They are clear, non-odorous and contain additives that
discourage the growth of mold, mildew and other fungi. They contain
inhibitors to prevent damage caused by invisible but harmful
ultraviolet rays. Liquiguard Technologies development focus is to
create application specific coatings that are the best in class.
Coatings developed by us utilize the latest innovations in polymer
technology. Our formulations focus on specific groups of materials and
objects that need to be protected from hazards encountered during
every day use. We pride ourselves on developing solutions that are
truly effective and long lasting we have developed a very special
product by the name of Florafresh.
Florafresh is a clear coating designed to protect and enhance the
longevity of dry, silk and paper mache flower and other decorative
arrangements such as bridal bouquets and affair centerpieces. This
clear and extremely flexible coating will completely seal all surfaces
while adding richness and beauty. It also permits dusting and cleaning
without the danger of breaking and crumbling.
Florafresh can also be used to preserve selected varieties of fresh
cut flowers and plants. Orchids, bromeliads and similar varietals,
when preserved with Florafresh, will maintain their color and form
well beyond their normal life cycle. When treating fresh flowers and
plants with Florafresh, remove the attached soil material, trim off
the roots, if necessary, and clean and dry off the plant. Thoroughly
seal all surfaces of the plant applying two to three coatings of
Florafresh.
Formulated from a blend of complex and innovative new resins,
Florafresh is a water based, odorless, non-yellowing and non-polluting
coating unlike any other available in the market today. More than a
moisture repellant it is the first truly protective coating that can
withstand spills of water, beverages, wine and other non-corrosive
liquids while keeping the coated objects free from mold, mildew and
other fungi. Florafresh contains unique ultraviolet inhibitors that
will protect the flower arrangements from damage caused by exposure to
sunlight, thus extending their longevity.
Florafresh can be sprayed or brushed on to the floral objects quickly
and easily and will become tack free in 20 to 30 minutes at an ambient
temperature of 77°F. To achieve optimal results, however, a drying
time of approximately 72 hours is recommended. The fully dried
Florafresh film is highly durable and will stay in place and continue
to provide optimal protection until physically removed or rubbed off.
To ensure that object being coated is fully protected, Florafresh
contains a special "tracer dye" that glows when exposed to ultraviolet
light. Missing or inadequate amount of Florafresh can be easily
detected by the absence of the telltale glow when the coated object is
exposed to a UV source. If too little Florafresh has been applied,
simply apply another coating to correct the problem.
Florafresh is 100% water based and is available in aerosol cans,
quart, gallon and five gallon containers. Aerosol cans contain solvent
based propellants. Larger packing sizes contain concentrates which
must be diluted with tap water. The recommended dilution is 2 or 3
parts of water to 1 part of concentrate. Coated surfaces can be wiped
or cleaned with warm water and detergents.
To remove Florafresh coating from treated surfaces, use warm water and
mild detergents or isopropyl alcohol. Do not use corrosive cleaners or
strong solvents.
Florafresh is non-toxic and environmentally safe.
PRODUCT USAGE INFO
1. Surface to be laminated must be free of dirt, oil, grease and other
loose debris.
2. Damp or wet objects should be thoroughly dried before coating.
3. Make sure that Florafresh and ambient temperature are at 50° F or
higher.
4. Shake the aerosol can well before and frequently during use.
5. Hold the can upright and about 12 inches away from the surface to
be sprayed.
6. Spray from all four sides of the object to be coated to ensure
complete coverage. This constitutes one coating cycle.
7. Porous surfaces may require more than one coating cycle for optimal
protection.
8. Each coating must be partially dry prior to application of
additional coatings.
9. For maximum protection coat all exposed surfaces.
CAUTION: Propellants within the aerosol contain volatile solvents that
can ignite easily. Keep away from open flame sparks or heat. Prolonged
exposure to sunlight may expand the pressurized solvents and the can
could explode. Do not puncture or incinerate. Do not store at
temperatures above 120ºF. Vapor harmful. Use with adequate
ventilation. Avoid contact with eyes and skin and prolonged exposure
to vapors. If swallowed do not induce vomiting. Seek immediate medical
attention.
