CLIP-LOC
Clip-Loc Panels
Tarpaulin
Please inspect panels for moisture accumulation. If moisture has formed, the panels should be unbundled, wiped dry, and allowed
to dry completely. Once dry, carefully restack the panels and loosely recover allowing for ample air circulation.
Bundled sheets should be stored high enough off of the ground to allow for air circulation and prevent contact with accumulating
water. If possible, elevate one end of the bundle to allow any moisture to run off the panels. Metal Sales recommends covering the
bundle with a tarpaulin. Do not use tight fitting plastic-type tarpaulins as panel bundle covers. While they may provide protection
from heavy downpours, they can also retard necessary ventilation and trap heat and moisture that may accelerate metal corro-
sion. If panels are to be stored in possible bad weather, we suggest they be stored inside. Extended storage of panels in a bundle
is not recommended. Under no circumstances should the sheets be stored near or come in contact with salt water, corrosive
chemicals, ash, or fumes generated or released inside the building or nearby plants, foundries, plating works, kilns, fertil-
izer, and wet or green lumber.
