Surface Protection for Aviation, Automotive, and Boating FAQ

Here are answers to common questions about TiCoat® and surface protection for aviation, automotive, and boating. If we don’t answer all your questions here, please visit our main FAQ page or contact us.

How Does TiCoat® Work?

TiCoat® Surface Protect is a ceramic photocatalyst protective coating that actively cleans and deodorizes using light, oxygen, and water in the air to break down contaminants and odors that touch its surfaces.

Once applied to a surface, it converts light energy from any source – including sunlight, fluorescent light, and LED light – to create a reaction with contaminants and odors.

Wipe treated surfaces with a water-based cleaner and let TiCoat® Surface Protect reduce organic stains and eliminate odors.

Where can TiCoat® be used in aviation, automotive, and boating?

TiCoat® Surface Protect is great for small, midsize, and large-scale applications in aeronautical, land, and marine transportation hubs and vehicle surfaces.

TiCoat® works on porous and non-porous surfaces including metals, plastics, glass, wood, painted and stained surfaces, cement, stucco, fabrics, and more. This high-quality, nontoxic surface treatment can be used for superior protection on walkways, waiting areas, restrooms, offices, garages, vehicle wash areas, fixtures, and décor, as well as interior and exterior automotive, marine, and aircraft surfaces.

In vehicle interiors, applying TiCoat® to door panels, upholstery, and floor mats helps protect vehicle interiors from pet stains, crayons, and other mishaps. It also reduces odors and VOCs.

What are the benefits of TiCoat® in aviation, automotive, and boating environments?

There are many benefits of using TiCoat® in aviation, automotive, and boating. TiCoat® is a high-quality, low-maintenance ceramic coating system that is stain resistant, slip resistant, and will help prevent contaminants and odors from building up on flooring and other surfaces, including vehicle interiors.

A clear coat of TiCoat® will make it more difficult for contaminants to stick and allow them to be washed away easily with water-based cleaners, reducing the need for acids, solvents, and other chemical-based cleaners.

After applying TiCoat® to bathrooms, garages, and other areas with significant odor, you can see immediate and sustained odor control, which can help improve the experience for passengers and employees.

TiCoat® also shows results in faster drying floors. Liquid spills and messes are frequent occurrences in aviation, automotive, and boating settings, increasing the importance of creating slip-resistant floors.

How long does the protection last?

TiCoat® is a long-lasting coating which does not require constant reapplication, even in saltwater and other harsh environmental conditions. It’s water-resistant and can only be removed abrasively or chemically, and will remain active as long as it’s exposed to light, water, and oxygen. If a treated surface, such as a floor or wall, is painted over or covered, the protective benefits will no longer remain active.

Why TiCoat®?

TiCoat® Surface Protect is an innovative, safe, and sustainable solution with a one-step application process manufactured to last on surfaces. It offers superior surface protection, helping keep high-traffic areas cleaner and smelling better.

Previous technology worked only with UV light, but TiCoat® works with any light source. It’s a long-lasting, fast-acting, self-cleaning surface coating that’s free of harmful chemicals. It dries clear on any surface, including fabric and solid surfaces, making it easier to maintain surface cleanliness and actively remove toxic residues left behind by normal cleaning procedures.

This contributes to greater sustainability and lower cleaning product costs, and reducing cleaning time, costs, and labor by up to 20% or more.

Is TiCoat® safe?

Third party safety testing by Enviro-Chem Labs in California found TiCoat® 100% safe. It’s at seven on the pH scale – the same pH as water. It has no VOCs or SVOCs, contains no harmful metals, and is not harmful to aquatic life.

It's a water-based, more sustainable, more efficient solution. TiCoat® is food contact safe, meaning it will not transfer from surface to food. It’s slip resistant, has been rigorously tested and approved by Green Seal, and is a PFAS-free technology. TiCoat® is also certified Clean Air Gold and made in the USA.

Many commonly used cleaners are toxic and require rinsing with water after application. According to the EPA, indoor concentrations of some pollutants have increased in recent decades – cleaning supplies, paints, insecticides, and other commonly used products introduce many different chemicals, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs), directly into the indoor air.

Indoor air pollutants can contribute to various health effects, including:

  • Eyes, nose, and throat irritation
  • Headaches, dizziness, and fatigue
  • Respiratory diseases, heart disease, and cancer

TiCoat® reduces toxicity by breaking down harmful residues left behind by disinfectants and other harsh chemicals. This contributes to further enhancement of safety for passengers, workers, and their pets in environments across the automotive, boating, and aviation industries.

How do I get TiCoat®?

TiCoat® is available in the USA and by shipment internationally. TiCoat® Surface Protect can be accessed directly through TiCoat® approved sales associates and certified installers. Please contact us for more information.

TiCoat® Certified Installers are available regionally and will treat surfaces in minutes using a standard air compressor and spray gun. If your organization has staff or a preferred service provider, TiCoat® can readily arrange for certification training. The process consists of both classroom and hands-on training, which typically takes just one day.

How much TiCoat® do I need?

The amount of TiCoat® Surface Protect needed depends on the square footage of the area to be treated and the type of surface material. On a non-porous surface, such as painted surfaces, one gallon of TiCoat® is estimated to cover approximately 4,500 square feet of surface area. On a porous surface, such as raw concrete or brick, a gallon is estimated to cover approximately 2,500 square feet of surface area.
