One only application will last up to 15 years

Top of the line protection with a Siloxane coating

Frames once treated Frame Protec  will totally resist oxidation are not affected by perspiration, facial grease and cosmetics.

Plastic frames which do turn white on temple tips nose pads and rims, out of the same reasons stated above will stay like new.

The application is very simple and fast

This application is fully anti allergenic

White areas on plastic frames (cellulose acetate and others) appear mostly on and first on temples and bridges, as also nose pads where they touch the skin. 

This is a chemical reaction of the surface to very strong acid perspiration through the skin or also by chemical reaction to some cosmetics applied.  The damage occurs while wearing the frame over some time. Some frames can show this damage already weeks after being brand new. 

Using strong solvents to remove the damaged layers as "alcohol" and "all off" can only intensify the damage already done or is just starting. There is no chemical way of removing the white area. 

Only solution to correct:

You can remove the lenses from the frame and sand off these areas with 100 to 200 grit sand paper ad then buff the surface on a polishing wheel to bring back the original luster. 

However you can take preventive measures: 

People that are allergic to certain metals are usually emitting an acid perspiration that also attack metals. When purchasing glasses they very often mention this fact when purchasing glasses, so they will not buy anything that will give them trouble. 

You can easily apply a protective coating called "Frame Protec" to the frame that will totally prevent the frames in plastic or metal from chemical attacks and oxidizing. This coating will outlast the frames livespan, which will never turn white if plastic and never oxidise if metal. 

Application: 

Apply with a clean paper tissue one or two drops spread over the frames surface.

Hold frame into the steam of a boiling water kettle to initiate the curing process for one to two minutes. Then let sit for 5 minutes or more and buff with a clean paper tissue to a brilliant shine which should be done in a few short minutes. You now have a long lasting total seal on the frame

Polycarbonate lens edge protection to prevent crazing of the lens.

Polycarbonate  lenses that have to be protected against chemical  attacks by leaching plastic frames can  be sealed on their edges, or the frame can be sealed in the mounting grooves.

How to Treat a Lens

Using a coton swab or a clean paper tissue wipe over surface to be treated. Let sit for 10 minutes to allow for partial air curing.

Buff with a clean paper tissue until surface looks very shiny.

Frame can now be used, the final curing will take place over the next few hours.

Caution

Disposal

As with all other chemical products, used Neutralizer should be disposed off according to law. The best way seems to be to collect the used up liquid in old plastic 1 gallon bottles. When full, dispose through a chemical waste company or bring it to one of those periodic free municipal collections of chemicals.
