Care And Maintenance Of Fortress Railing Products
Powder-Coated Products And Surfaces:
• Immediately after installation of your Fortress Railing Products,
clean powder-coated products and surfaces with a solution of
warm water and non-abrasive, pH neutral detergent solution.
Surfaces should be thoroughly rinsed after cleaning to remove
all residues. All surfaces should be cleaned using a soft cloth or
sponge.
• Ensure construction materials such as concrete, plaster, and paint
splashes are removed immediately before they have a chance to
dry. Failure to remove these materials may cause damage to the
powder-coated surfaces.
• The frequency of cleaning depends in part on the standard
of appearance and also the requirements to remove deposits
that may cause damage to the powder coating after
prolonged exposure. Fortress recommends cleaning in three to
four monthly intervals all products and powder-coated surfaces.
In areas where higher traffic, increased atmospheric substances,
or other effects may occur, the time period between cleanings
should be increased to monthly intervals.
• WARNING: Do not use strong solvents such as
thinners, or solutions containing chlorinated
hydrocarbons, esters, or ketones. Abrasive cleaners or
cutting compounds should not be used.
