If surface damage is encountered, use 120-360 grit paper to prepare the
surface. Wipe clean with white spirit.
Ensure the surface is dry – apply a thin primer coat using a fine brush.
Finally, apply an air drying top coat with a fine brush.
General cleaning can be undertaken by a wash with warm soapy water.
For added protection, on the white Pergola, a wax polish can be applied
up to twice per year – follow the polish manufacturer’s instructions
carefully.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
FROM TIME TO TIME, CLEAN INSIDE THE CURVED VERANDA BEAM TO PREVENT BLOCKAGE FROM LEAF DEBRIS
It should be noted that polyester powder coatings are not
maintenance free – the extent of cleaning depends upon the
local environment and on the attitude of the building owner.
Think cars here...if the building owner wants a finish like that,
more regular cleaning is needed. All paints will ‘chalk’ to some
extent and there will be a reduction in gloss level over time –
this can be restored.
PLEASE PASS TO HOMEOWNER
