subcontractors to protect the interior and exterior of
windows or doors from excessive contact with harsh
chemical washes, construction material contamination and
moisture. Damage to glazing, hardware, weatherstrip and

protective sheathing as required. Follow all guidelines
regarding material use, preparation, personal safety and
disposal.
