Anti-fingerprint coatings are commonly used to prevent fingerprints and other smudges from appearing on glass surfaces. These coatings work by reducing the surface energy of the glass, making it difficult for oils and other substances to adhere to the surface.

One common method for creating an anti-fingerprint coating on glass is to use a coating solution containing a mixture of fluorinated silane and a surfactant. The solution is applied to the glass surface using a spray or dip coating method, and then cured at a high temperature to form a thin, transparent film.

Another method involves the use of nanotechnology to create a textured surface on the glass that is highly resistant to fingerprint smudges. This method involves depositing a thin layer of nanoparticles onto the glass surface, which creates a micro-roughness that prevents oils and other substances from adhering to the surface.

It’s worth noting that while anti-fingerprint coatings can be effective at reducing the appearance of fingerprints on glass, they may not completely eliminate them. In addition, the coatings may wear off over time with repeated use, so regular maintenance and reapplication may be necessary.
