FOR RESIDENTIAL & COMMERCIAL SOLAR
Solar Panel Shield
Higher return, less cleaning. Dirty panels can lose 20–40% of their production per year. An Eco-Seal coating keeps your panels cleaner for longer and saves you on annual cleaning costs.

LESS CLEANING
Once a year, not four times
Cuts cleaning from quarterly to annually
THE PROBLEM
What soils solar panels?
Your solar system is exposed to the elements 365 days a year. What builds up on the surface reduces light transmission and directly reduces your energy yield.
Pollen
Forms a sticky film on the glass.
Bird droppings
Cause hotspots: local overheating can permanently damage cells.
Dust & soot
Build a layer of dirt that hinders panel performance.
Algae, moss & mold
Grow in shady areas and high-moisture climates.
Limescale & drying marks
Left by water that evaporates instead of beading up and running off.

SOLAR STUDY
+5.5%
Average increase in energy yield vs. uncoated panels
Tested over 360 days
Testing
Intensive testing over 360 days measured the energy yield of coated panels against uncoated panels.
Testing and data provided by PV3 GmbH experts.
Results
Improved light refraction: an average 5.5% increase in energy yield compared with uncoated panels.
Benefits
More revenue from energy output, plus cost savings from less cleaning.
THE MATH
Cost advantages of solar coating
Calculation for a typical 10 kWp residential rooftop system: 20,000 kWh annual production ($3,200 annual revenue).
Panels lose 20–40% of their production per year from dirt, grime and soot. To limit the loss, systems need cleaning once a quarter.
Without cleaning
Yield loss (avg. 20%/yr)
$640/yr
Year 1: $3,200 − 20% = $2,560
Year 2: $3,200 − 40% = $1,920
Year 3: $3,200 − 60% = $1,280
3-year revenue
$5,760
Quarterly cleaning
Cleaning (4 × $350)
$1,400/yr
Year 1: $3,200 − $1,400 = $1,800
Year 2: $3,200 − $1,400 = $1,800
Year 3: $3,200 − $1,400 = $1,800
3-year revenue

Our solar-enhancing coatings are a cost-effective solution, designed to improve energy output and pay for themselves over time.
APPLICATION
How to apply
1
Clean the panels
Remove all dirt, bird droppings and residue.
2
Let them dry
Let the panels dry completely.
3
Apply Solar Shield
Spray Eco-Seal Solar Shield evenly onto the panels.
4
Let it cure
Curing begins right away, but leave the panels undisturbed for 24 hours.
