How to Clean Stainless Steel
To maintain your stainless steel product in the best condition, we recommend
routine cleaning once a month and more often in areas subject to heavy soiling
and frequent use.
All exposed stainless steel surfaces should be wiped over with a clean cloth
and warm water using a mild detergent on a frequent and routine basis.
Cleaning should always be immediately followed by rinsing in clean hot water
and the surface then wiped completely with a dry towel. For more stubborn dirt
or stains use mild, non-scratching abrasive powders such as typical household
cleaners. These can be used with bristle brushes, sponges or non-abrasive
scourers.
For more abrasive cleaning a small amount of vinegar can be added to the
powder. Carbon steel brushes and steel wool should be avoided as they may
leave particles embedded in the surface, which can lead to rusting.
Frequency of Cleaning
The accumulation of atmospheric particulates makes it necessary to clean the
surface of the framing regularly. In badly polluted industrial, marine or
large city locations it is recommended that cleaning is carried out once every
three months. In relatively cleaner rural locations, the frequency should be
once every six months.
Cleaning can usually be carried out when the window glass is cleaned. More
regular frequency of cleaning will depend on the standard of appearance that
is required. It may be, for example, that windows which can be closely
inspected at ground or lower-level need to be cleaned more frequently than
windows at higher levels.
Providing the recommended frequency is maintained, it should never be
necessary to use cleaners that are more aggressive than a non-alkaline
detergent in warm water, in concentrations that can be handled with bare
hands. After application the cleaner should be removed with clean water.
Aggressive cleaners should be avoided as these could damage the finish, any
bare metal, the glazing sealants or gaskets. Non-alkaline detergent and warm
water may be safely applied to any of the aluminium finishes using a soft
cloth or sponge. Nothing harsher than a bristle brush or a nylon pad should be
used.
If there is any doubt, we recommend the proposed cleaning method is tested
first on an unobtrusive area. The cleaner should be in the same concentration
and be applied in the manner intended, after which the area should be
inspected for stains or other damage to the finish.
Note: Steel wool, strong acids and alkalis, and abrasive cleaners should
NEVER be used.
