Before beginning assembly of product, make sure all parts are present. Compare parts with
package contents list and diagram above. If any part is missing or damaged, do not attempt to
assemble the product. Contact customer service for replacement parts at 1-888-582-2294 or visit
www.djarmor.com.
Note: It is recommended that Door Jamb Armor components be painted before being installed.
They can be touched up as necessary after installation.
1.
Using plain steel wool or a very fine emery cloth, gently rough the surface of the piece
to be painted. You only want to rough the surface and break the gloss so that your paint will
adhere to the surface. Do not totally remove the existing powder coating.
2.
Clean the surface with a tack cloth or a cloth with a cleaner on it that will not leave a
residue. Rubbing alcohol will work well for this application. You can also use mineral spirits
but make sure that whatever you use does not cause an adverse reaction with the powder
coating.
3.
When components are clean and free of debris, you are ready to paint your pieces.
4.
Ensure that all components are completely dry before handling or installing them.
