Clean-Up
•
Inspect panel surfaces and flashings for loose
debris and metal shavings.
•
Remove debris and metal shavings by wiping
panels down with a soft cloth, being careful not
to scratch panel surface.
•
Dirt residue can be removed by washing panels
with a mild detergent, water, and soft cloth.
Repair
•
Severe scratches, dents and holes will require
panel replacement.
•
Small scratches do not require touch-up paint
if the scratch does not penetrate the Galvalume
substrate under the paint.
•
Metal Sales does not recommend touch-up
painting of damaged surfaces (minor scratches,
etc.) due to fading and weathering differences
of the touch-up paints in comparison to factory-
applied paint systems.
Maintenance
•
Inspect roof panels and flashings annually.
•
Remove debris to ensure panels are moisture
free.
•
Tighten loose fasteners and repair joints that
may need new sealant.
•
If needed, wash panel surface with a mild
detergent, water, and soft cloth.
•
Re-painting panels should not be required for
the life of the building. If a new color for panels
or trim is required, please inquire with Metal
Sales for more information.
Electrical Grounding
(if required)
•
All siding and flashings shall be grounded by
attaching a No. 8 hot-dipped galvanized wire
to an electrical ground rod with a connector
approved by Underwriter’s Laboatories.
