For all anglers who want to keep their tackles in the best condition at all times. The highly durable glass coating protects your precious reels and rods from scratches, dirt, and rust. It’s the perfect coating for anglers who take pride in maintaining their fishing gear. ---About HardoLass--- The nano-material coating HardoLass is a highly durable, anti-fouling coating agent that forms an inorganic glass layer. With its innovative liquid formulation, it achieves the ideal balance of no added weight, no alteration to the surface structure, and no change in appearance of the coated object. MERIT 01 - Scratch Protection The ultra-thin 1 µm glass coating thoroughly covers the surfaces of reels, rods, and other gear, preventing minor scratches caused by everyday rubbing, transport, or use. Thanks to the inherent hardness of glass (pencil hardness 9H), it provides excellent abrasion resistance. This protective layer maintains the original appearance, texture, and weight, preserving the authentic feel and operability of DAIWA products. Note: This does not make the surface completely scratch-proof. MERIT 02 - Anti-Fouling / Water & Dirt Repellent The highly water-repellent glass coating provides excellent anti-fouling protection for reels and rods, effectively repelling water and dirt. Mud, salt, and fingerprints that accumulate during fishing are less likely to stick, and any residues can be easily wiped away, making post-fishing cleaning remarkably smooth. By reducing dirt buildup, the need for detergents and excessive water is minimized, helping lessen environmental impact. Caring for your fishing gear in this way also promotes a more sustainable lifestyle. Note: This does not make surfaces completely dirt-proof. MERIT 03 - Rust Prevention - Inhibits Corrosion The high-density glass coating prevents moisture penetration, reducing corrosion damage to metal parts and slowing the onset and progression of rust. Its effect is especially significant in harsh environments, such as saltwater fishing, providing longer-lasting protection compared to conventional rust-prevention methods. Despite being virtually invisible, the coating thoroughly covers surfaces, helping keep your fishing gear beautiful and well-maintained for years. Note: This does not make your gear completely rust-proof. MERIT 04 - Peace of Mind / Reliable Application The glass coating on your valuable fishing gear is applied by HardoLass Specialists, part of the SLP Repair Technology Meister team. Experienced staff who know reels and rods inside out ensure a flawless finish, helping make your next fishing trip even more enjoyable and worry-free.
