Jobstory - Surface maintenance Facades

Metal sheeting of house facades radiates in new brilliance!

Initial Situation

The stainless steel sheets of a house façade were badly weather-beaten due to environmental influences such as rain and exhaust fumes. Impurities and corrosion were clearly visible. According to an expert's assessment the stainless steel sheets were beyond repair.

Solution

At first, various tests with different Pelox products were carried out on the house façades. The best results were achieved with the new acidic surface cleaner F-RD 50. The cleaner was applied evenly to the surface. The application time was about 30 – 60 minutes. Then the metal sheets were rinsed with a high pressure water cleaner. The result: The metal sheets were visible brighter and all the impurities and corrosion had been removed. We had been able to salvage them after all!
