Dome Magic - Satellite Dome Antenna Cleaner
Product Overview
Dome Magic is a spray-on application applied to your RV satellite dome that eliminates the loss of your satellite signal due to rain or morning dew. There is nothing available that works nearly as well and/or does not need to be reapplied after each rain occurrence.
The Problem
Rain, snow and dew can have a negative effect on satellite signal reception making the digital picture freeze, pixel or go out altogether. This loss of signal is commonly referred to as ³rain fade² or signal attenuation. Satellite television reception is adversely affected by two factors:
- 1. Water in the atmosphere
- 2. Water on the dish and LNB or radome
The Solution
Dome Magic eliminates the negative effects of rain and dew on the dome. While it does not prevent the reduction in signal due to excessive water in the atmosphere, it does prevent water on the dome from causing additional signal loss. It does this by minimizing the contact area of the water droplet on the dome. In other words, it makes the bottom of the water droplet more round than flat. In fact, water balls rolling off a dome treated with dome magic are almost perfectly round and have the appearance of mercury.

Installation and Operation
Apply when the air temperature is between 60 and 110 degrees F. First clean dome cover with warm soapy water to remove all dirt, dust and other debris and thoroughly dry surface. Then, for best results clean dome with alcohol. After shaking can vigorously for about 10 seconds, hold can upright and spray with a slow sweeping circular motion 6 to 12 inches from surface until evenly coated and appearing wet. Allow to dry for 20 minutes then apply a second coat after drying for greater performance. Dome Magic will stay on until washed off and is to be re-applied after each dome cleaning.

When applied as directed, one application of Dome Magic can last up to 12 months. Dome Magic applied to the dome will stay on until removed by friction. Normal rainfall alone is not enough to wash Dome Magic off the dome in a one year period. However, washing or pressure spraying the dome will remove the protective layer and require a new application. Each 5 oz. of Dome Magic will provide enough material to treat 3 satellite domes.
NOTE OF CAUTION: Dome Magic is highly flammable and is only to be used in a well ventilated area with a constant and abundant supply of fresh air. The contents is under pressure and may flash, burn or explode if ignited. Excessive inhalation of the vapor is to be avoided. Inhaling or ingesting vapor may be harmful or fatal.
