The wear layer is a high-performance coating that protects the printed design film from wear, tear, and staining. Because it is non-porous, it prevents substances like wine, ink, or food spills from seeping into the vinyl structure. It also facilitates a surface that does not require waxing or polishing.

What is the benefit of a stain-resistant top layer?
A stain-resistant top layer acts as a barrier against everyday spills and household stains. This transparent wear layer is designed to be non-porous, preventing liquids, dyes, and common contaminants from absorbing into the vinyl core, which allows for easier cleaning and maintenance.
