1. Avoid nicking or scraping the coating surface,
inside and out.
2. Use all the washers supplied. In addition to pro-
tecting against weather infiltration, the washers pro-
tect the metal from being scraped by the screws.
3. Keep roof, base perimeter and door tracks free of
debris and leaves which may accumulate and retain
moisture. These can do double damage since they
give off acid as they decay.
4. Touch up scrapes or nicks and any area of visible
rust as soon as possible. Make sure the surface is
free of moisture, oils, dirt or grime and then apply an
even film of high quality touch-up paint.
SOME FACTS ABOUT RUST
Rusting is a natural oxidizing process that occurs
when bare metal is exposed to moisture. Problem
areas include screw holes, unfinished edges, or
where scrapes and nicks occur in the protective
coating through normal assembly, handling and
use. Identifying these natural rusting problem areas
and taking some simple rust protection precautions
can help to stop rust from developing, or stop it
quickly as soon as it appears.
