Silicone Spray 12 Cans

Silicone Spray Lubricant

Silicone Spray is a clear, heat-stable aerosol silicone lubricant for professional upholstery workrooms, furniture manufacturing, textile production and general workshop maintenance.

It leaves a fine silicone film that helps reduce friction between moving components while also providing water repellency, anti-stick properties and resistance to dust and dirt accumulation caused by static electricity.

This makes silicone lubricant spray particularly useful where materials, tools or moving parts need to slide more freely without the heavier residue associated with conventional grease.

Silicone Lubricant Spray for Upholstery Workrooms

Furniture and upholstery workshops contain numerous tools, moving components and cutting surfaces where unwanted friction can slow work or cause materials to drag.

Silicone spray can be useful for suitable:

• Moving machinery components
• Cutting blades
• Hand tools
• Sliding mechanisms
• Metal zips
• Hinges
• Workshop equipment
• Furniture mechanisms
• Surfaces where an anti-stick film is required

Reduce Friction on Cutting Blades and Tools

One of the most useful upholstery applications for silicone lubricant is reducing friction on suitable cutting equipment.

A light application can help minimise drag on foam cutting blades and upholstery knives and help prevent suitable materials or residues from adhering to cutting surfaces.

This can be particularly useful when working repeatedly with foam, textiles and other upholstery materials where friction or sticking can make cutting more difficult.

Apply sparingly and always keep the spray away from areas of foam or upholstery material that will subsequently need to be glued.

Anti-Stick Silicone Spray

Silicone spray has natural anti-stick properties and can be used where unwanted material adhesion is causing problems.

This makes it useful on selected tools, cutting surfaces and workshop equipment.

However, the same property that makes silicone useful as an anti-stick lubricant means it should not be applied to surfaces that are intended to be bonded with adhesive.

If you are preparing foam, wadding or other upholstery materials for bonding with Status Fabrics Heavy Duty Spray Adhesive, keep silicone spray well away from the bonding area.

Silicone contamination can interfere with the ability of adhesives and some finishes to bond correctly.

Silicone Spray for Moving Parts and Furniture Mechanisms

Silicone lubricant spray can also help reduce squeaking, sticking and friction on suitable moving parts.

Typical applications may include:

• Hinges
• Sliding mechanisms
• Workshop machinery
• Furniture mechanisms
• Metal zips
• Locks
• Drawers
• General moving components

When working with upholstery closures and furniture covers, suitable metal zip components can be found in the Zipping range.

Helps Reduce Static Dust and Dirt Build-Up

Static electricity can attract dust, fluff and loose fibres to machinery and work surfaces.

Silicone Spray helps reduce the build-up of dust and dirt associated with static electricity by leaving a fine protective silicone film on suitable surfaces.

This can be useful in upholstery and textile workshops where foam particles, fibres and lint are commonplace.

The product should still be used selectively rather than sprayed indiscriminately across the workroom, particularly where adhesive bonding, painting or finishing work is taking place nearby.

Clear and Heat-Stable Silicone Spray

The silicone lubricant forms a clear, heat-stable film, making it useful where a visible heavy lubricant would be undesirable.

Its fine-film lubrication is suitable for applications where smooth movement and low friction are required without applying conventional grease.

The clear formulation also makes it useful across a broad range of furniture and textile workshop applications, subject to material compatibility.

Water-Repellent Silicone Protection

Silicone spray can provide useful water-repellent properties on compatible materials and surfaces.

However, it should not automatically be treated as a substitute for a dedicated upholstery fabric treatment.

Where the main objective is protecting suitable finished upholstery fabrics from staining, soiling and moisture, use a dedicated product such as Status Fabrics Fabric Protector Spray.

This keeps the silicone spray focused on the jobs it does best: lubrication, friction reduction, anti-stick protection and workshop maintenance.

Check Material Compatibility Before Use

As with any aerosol treatment, compatibility should be checked before widespread application.

Before use:

• Ensure the surface is clean
• Test an inconspicuous area where appropriate
• Apply a light, controlled coating
• Avoid overspraying
• Protect surrounding materials from aerosol mist
• Check man-made fibres for colourfastness
• Avoid surfaces intended for subsequent adhesive bonding or finishing
• Exercise caution around specialist heat-resistant foams
• Follow all instructions and safety information supplied with the aerosol

Silicone spray should not be sprayed indiscriminately onto upholstery foam, fabrics or surrounding work surfaces.

Its anti-stick properties are an advantage in the correct application but can become a nuisance if silicone reaches a surface that later needs gluing, painting or refinishing.

Silicone Spray for Professional Furniture and Upholstery Workshops

Silicone Spray is suitable for professional upholsterers, furniture manufacturers, foam converters, textile workshops and general maintenance applications.

It is available as:

• 1 Can
• 12 Cans

The 12-can option provides a practical quantity for workshops using silicone lubricant regularly on tools, machinery and suitable moving components.

Silicone Lubricant for Furniture, Tools and Workroom Equipment

Silicone Spray is a aerosol lubricant for reducing friction, helping prevent adhesion and providing a fine protective film on suitable workshop equipment and moving components.

Its combination of lubrication, anti-stick properties, water repellency and static dust control makes it particularly useful in upholstery, furniture and textile environments.

Used selectively and correctly, it can help cutting tools, machinery and moving parts operate more smoothly while reducing unwanted sticking and friction.

Silicone Spray is a clear, heat-stable silicone lubricant spray for reducing friction between moving parts, providing water repellency, helping prevent adhesion and reducing dust and dirt build-up caused by static electricity.

Use it for furniture workshops, upholstery workrooms and general maintenance applications, including suitable machinery, moving components and cutting blades and foam-cutting tools.

The fine silicone film helps surfaces move more freely while providing useful anti-stick and protective properties.

Apply only to suitable clean surfaces and avoid overspraying. Keep away from surfaces that are due to be glued, painted or otherwise bonded, as silicone is specifically designed to help prevent adhesion.
