Section 4: Blue-Line Polyurethane Edge Care & Cleaning
{Appearance & Life of the Polyurethane Edge}
Polyurethane moldcast edges are generally stain resistant to most compounds or staining agents
found in the office, food and health care industries.
IMPORTANT:
Routine maintenance will ensure quality and life of your long-term investment and protect animals from
transmittable disease and infection.
IMPORTANT:
To safeguard your investment and rights to the Shor-Line’s Warranty, it is important that you
know factors that degrade the polyurethane edging. Permanent damage to the edge due to corrosion, pitting or
discoloration can occur from:
• Bacteriostatic agents such as Iodine and Betadine have the greatest staining potential and care should be exercised
to avoid exposing the edging to these.
• Harsh cleaners with abrasive additives (such as high concentrations of Bleach) have the potential to corrode or
discolor the edging.
• Sharp metal objects, sandpaper or hard bristle brushes can cause pitting in the edging if used to try to remove
stains.
{Polyurethane Edge Care & Cleaning Best Practices}

You play an essential role in safeguarding your investment and rights to Shor-Line’s Warranty. We
