FINISH

The interior and exterior frame and sash are protected by a powder coat baked-on finish that
requires no painting. Clean this surface with mild soap and water. Stubborn stains and deposits
may be removed with mineral spirits. DO NOT use abrasives. DO NOT scrape or use tools that
might damage surface.

Use of inappropriate solvents, brickwash or cleaning chemicals will cause adverse reactions with
window and door materials and voids the Limited Warranty.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Care and maintenance information is available by contacting your local Pella sales
representative. This information is also available on www.pellaimpervia.com.
