It combines the exceptional impact resistance polycarbonate is known for with a durable coating on both faces, giving outstanding resistance to scratching, abrasion, graffiti, and aggressive cleaning chemicals without compromising clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStandard polycarbonate scratching or clouding under repeated cleaning?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUncoated polycarbonate marks easily and can cloud over time with regular wiping. The dual hard coat on this sheet resists abrasion and stands up to mild soap solutions and common cleaning agents far better than standard polycarbonate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVandal-prone glazing getting scratched, tagged, or defaced? \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hard-coated surface is graffiti resistant and far more scratch resistant than uncoated polycarbonate or glass, making it well suited to public-facing glazing, transit screens, and retail barriers in higher-risk locations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeed a viewing panel that stays clear despite constant handling? \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMachine guards and inspection windows take a lot of contact and cleaning. The hard coat maintains its clarity and abrasion resistance far longer than standard polycarbonate, reducing how often panels need replacing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur hard-coated polycarbonate undergoes rigorous testing for O2 and water vapor transfer, meeting ASTM D6701 standards. In triplicate testing, the average water vapor transfer of a coated piece of polycarbonate was reduced by 0.5g\/m^2 or 28% compared to an uncoated piece of the same substrate. During testing, the coating alone exhibited an impressive water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) of only 1.6g\/m^2 per day. Choose our hard-coated polycarbonate for superior protection and durability, backed by reliable performance data.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: HARD COAT POLYCARBONATE | Colour: Clear | Thickness: 3mm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Forge Finishes","offers":[{"title":"3mm","offer_id":67878263357639,"sku":"159453CTS","price":97.51,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"5mm","offer_id":67878263390407,"sku":"159454CTS","price":127.13,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"6mm","offer_id":67878263423175,"sku":"159455CTS","price":141.92,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0797\/2752\/6087\/files\/poly_clear_-_edited.webp?v=1791677455","url":"https:\/\/www.forge-finishes.com\/products\/polyguard-hard-polycarbonate-clear-hard-coat","provider":"Forge-Finishes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
