WEATHER GUARD® PRODUCT
REFINISHING PROCEDURES
All WEATHER GUARD® products are
finished with a polyester powder coat-
ing, and it is important to follow these
procedures to get proper adhesion.
As Knaack Manufacturing Co. cannot
control the finishing of the products,
the warranty for WEATHER GUARD®
products on paint is not applicable on
refinished products.
1. Sand the surface to be painted with
180-200 grit sand paper to rough up
the surface. This should be followed
by wet sanding with a 400 grit wet or
dry paper.
2. Wipe down the sanded surface with
ketone based thinner. This removes
the dust and softens the powder coat-
ing for better paint adhesion.
3. Wipe sanded area with a tack rag
to remove loose dust and particles
before painting.
NOTE: Do not use a lacquer over
the powdered coating.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
USING BLIND FASTENERS
Place a drop of oil on the black oxide
bolt before assembling as shown on
right. Place the Blind Fastener in the
hole and use a 1/2” or 7/16” wrench to
tighten black hex bolt until the blind
fastener is fully seated. When setting
black hex bolt, it will start out hard.
As the Blind Fastener “bulbs” out it
will get easier, until it bottoms out or
sets. Make sure the Blind Fastener
and Installation Tool do not turn during
installation.
