warcelo 0 Posted November 21, 2010 I was looking at one eyeglass store about the ar coating that they do in prescription lenses for only 25$ so i asked if they would do it in a sapphire watch glass and they didn't knew, cuz they never done before in sapphire, but they said that they can do in mineral glasses and polycarbonate glasses. So, should i give a try? Will i waste 25$ ? Have someone done this before? ( i have and old sapphire glass here for a test ) Thanks you guys! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aren 27 Posted November 21, 2010 This would be great to know. I hope you will follow up on this. Great idea. I wouldn't have imagined this as an option. If anyone has done this I hope they will post. Well done... Does the AR coating help alot with the flash from photography? Great idea...hope it works. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KBH 7 Posted November 21, 2010 Don't waste your money. I took one for the team and did it 3 years ago. It's much to green and not nearly as scratch proof as good watch ar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
warcelo 0 Posted November 21, 2010 I have 3 watches, 1 with ar coating, is't a way better to take pictures and looks amazing. I think i will have a try, but if someone tell me that have done it before i will not waste 25$ to ar my old sapphire glass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
warcelo 0 Posted November 21, 2010 @KBH - Good to know that it works! The store that i went told me that they have 3 kind of AR treatment, on being green ( 15$ ), other blue/purple ( 25$ ) and the most expansive is 50$ but it's almost transparent. I not doing both sides, i want to avoid scratches! But thatnk you a lot for the info! Now i will not waste my money! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KBH 7 Posted November 21, 2010 The only thing I liked about it was how easy it was to take off. I did both sides and the back side started rubbing off on my finger. I don't think they did that side correctly. The other side was a little harder but came right off with a little pad of Never-Dull wadding. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aren 27 Posted November 21, 2010 Good to know... Aside from the poor quality you found KBH...the colour things sounds risky. Well the idea was a good one, even it it didn't work out. If not for trying, I wouldn't know I could take an antique claw foot bath tub to the auto body shop for glass beading and repainting. So, some things work out and some don't. Thanks for the update.
