Surface Protection
Anodization is a process that hardens the surface, removing the necessity for applying wax. Additionally, a clear peel-off mask is provided to shield the finish during the fabrication process. This protective layer should remain intact during fabrication to prevent any potential damage to the surface.

Recommended Usage
This material is suitable for both vertical installations and light horizontal use. It’s crucial to handle it with care to avoid dents or scratches. Tools equipped with carbide-tipped blades are preferable for working with this material as they minimize the risk of causing damage.

Adhesive Guidelines
Regular contact cement or cold set adhesives that are typically used with decorative laminates are recommended for use with this material. However, it’s important to prevent the adhesive from coming into contact with the metallic surface. During cleanup, specific solvents like naphtha or benzine should be used, as other solvents such as lacquer solvents might harm the coating.

Storage Instructions

Proper storage is essential to maintain the quality of the metal laminates. They should be stored face up in a flat and fully supported position in a cool and dry environment. Using chipboard or a similar material as a top sheet can help keep the sheets flat. Storing them on their edges is not advisable.

Maintenance Tips

To keep the surfaces clean, it’s recommended to use compatible cleaning agents for either anodized or lacquered products. A soft cloth and household cleaner can be used effectively. Additionally, applying good furniture or automobile waxes can offer extra protection to the metal laminate surfaces.

Specifics and Cautions:
Some variations of these metal laminates may offer postforming capabilities, but this is usually available through special order. Proper counter balancing is necessary during installation to prevent any warping of the substrate. It’s important to note that these metal laminates conduct electricity and should be handled with caution around ungrounded electrical circuits to prevent shocks or short circuits.
