A prototype is a preliminary model of something. Projects that offer physical products need to show backers documentation of a working prototype. This gallery features photos, videos, and other visual documentation that will give backers a sense of what’s been accomplished so far and what’s left to do. Though the development process can vary for each project, these are the stages we typically see:
Proof of Concept
Explorations that test ideas and functionality.
Functional Prototype
Demonstrates the functionality of the final product, but looks different.
Appearance Prototype
Looks like the final product, but is not functional.
Design Prototype
Appearance and function match the final product, but is made with different manufacturing methods.
Production Prototype
Appearance, function, and manufacturing methods match the final product.

GlassX is an easy to apply, protective spray on solution that utilizes revolutionary nanotechnology to protect and save your devices from scratches and shattering. There’s no longer a need to buy screen protectors that only work with one product, and it’s so simple to apply, even a third grader could do it. *Do not allow third graders to apply solution. It is not recommended* With GlassX, all you need is the solution, a heating source, and a cloth to wipe.
Each coating is a permanent coating that protects your iPhone and other devices from keys, drops, hammers and much more. We’re also including Spraygard which is an anti smudge and scratch solution that extends the protection even further while creating an ultra smooth smudge resistant surface.
One GlassX vial can be used on up to 3 devices. Apply it on things like your Apple Watch, iPhone, Samsung device, and much more! You can now pre-order your GlassX now, saving up to 50% off its retail price.
GlassX will protect your device so well you’ll think that there was an actual 2nd glass on there. GlassX protects “invisibly” on a nano scale so you never have to worry again.
What is GlassX?
Not all glass are the same. The glass on our devices all have imperfections that the naked eye could never see. These imperfections if zoomed in 1000x will show huge valleys and ridges that allow for sharp objects to latch onto. Once these sharp objects latch onto these ridges, scratches appear and only get bigger over time. We've developed a solution that will evenly bridge these gaps creating an ultra smooth surface.
The main ingredient in our solution is SiO2, Silicon Dioxide. What is Silicon Dioxide? Silicon dioxide is a chemical compound mostly obtained by mining and purification of quartz. We've broken down the chemistry of SiO2 and formulated it into liquid glass. Our liquid glass creates an ultra smooth surface that protects it from the everyday wear and tear of our lives.
GlassX creates an ultra smooth hydrophobic layer of protection against oils and scratches.
These are some of the awesome features of GlassX:
Pioneered by California natives and engineered in the beautiful city of Commerce
The coating is virtually invisible and does not apply any bulk
GlassX is a permanent liquid glass coating
9H Scratch Resistant
Spraygard - Allows for an ultra smooth smudge and scratch resistant finish after GlassX is applied (also included)
One GlassX vial can coat up to 3 devices
Never worry about bubbles or yellowing again. The coating last the lifetime of your device.
GlassX Sharpie Test
Water and Oil resistant to fight against smudges
Our coating goes on 1000x thinner than a single strand of human hair!
GlassX Cures into Glass
GlassX cured on glass
GlassX dries into actual glass with hydrophobic properties
GlassX works on all types of glass
Phone/Tablet displays, Watch faces, glass optical lenses, Camera lenses, Digital Cameras and other many other glass surfaces.
Scratch Test Results
The results were obtained by a third party testing lab, TouchStone Testing Lab and our coating has been cleared for having a hardness score of 9H! We're extremely happy and proud about this and can't wait till everyone's devices are protected with GlassX.
9H scratch test certification received!
Protects against the everyday wear and tear such as keys
Apply solution liberally onto your device’s screen (recommended 6 drops per phone display, 8 drops for tablets)
Wipe and work the solution into the screen
Let the solution air dry until haze appears
Apply heat from source like hair dryer at a safe distance for 2 minutes
Repeat steps for 2 more coatings, totaling 3-5 coatings per device for optimal results
Use Spraygard once GlassX coatings are completed to give an ultra smooth smudge resistant surface
Where we're at
We’ve been engineering tirelessly for years trying to perfect the GlassX solution. We’ve finally come to the finish line and are now able to provide protection to all types of devices. What you see in this campaign is not wizardry or fake, this stuff actually works! With your support, we will be able to bring GlassX to the world, a solution that is engineered for elegance, and effectiveness.
Your contribution will help fund:
Procurement of solution materials
Production of larger quantities
Further research
And bringing the protection of GlassX to life for everyone utilize
Our goal
Our scientists and engineers are ready to take the next steps and move into mass production. We’ve done the research, spent countless hours testing in our labs, and now have the solution to your protection needs. We’re ready to go, and excited to show the world what GlassX can do. We’ve also sourced our package manufacturers who will aid our California office in putting the orders together and to ship out. With many other industry leading vendors we’ve calculated the initial shipping dates. All we need now is your support. We plan to ship out orders of our first major production in August 2017 so you can run full steam into holiday season protected..
Why we need your help
Mass manufacturing a product like GlassX is no easy feat. We’ve become experts in doing that but need your financial support. The funds raised will allow us to put that directly towards covering upfront manufacturing costs. We need your help and we can’t do it without you. We know this is going to be big! So let’s take this first step together.
Stretch Goals
Together we can further protect your devices with the following stretch goals! Thank you backers!
Be part of the global effort to protect our devices.
Special Thanks
THANK YOU!
A shout out to everyone who has supported and made GlassX what it is today! To the blood, sweat, and tears we’ve all shared. Bobby, this one is for you buddy. Wish you were here to see this. Music: www.bensound.com.
We’ve worked endlessly to establish business relationships with industry leading logistics companies. We work alongside these vendors to mitigate any potential risks and to ultimately ensure the best quality for our beloved backers. We’ve worked in various industries for years and know that there is always a potential for setbacks, but we are highly confident in our skills to make sure that we manage everything and are on schedule.
We wouldn’t be here asking for support unless we were sure we could deliver the product before asking all of you to back us. Our product is elegant, functional, and we are so excited to move forward with you. Your support can make this all a reality.
Our target delivery date is early August, 2017. We are committed to making the best protection on the market.
