CARING FOR YOUR BLACK STAINLESS STEEL
Over time and exposure to the elements, a powder coating finish may show signs of wear and weather,
such as reduced gloss, chalking, and color loss. A consistent cleaning schedule will help remove dirt,
grime, and the other harmful buildup that contributes to the damage. We recommend using warm
filtered water and a mild detergent (such as a PH neutral liquid dish washing soap) to remove surface
deposits, dust, salt, etc. Clean with a soft cloth, sponge, or soft bristled brush, and be sure to rinse
thoroughly with filtered water after cleaning. While a powder coat is durable, it is not bullet-proof.
Avoid sharp impacts from heavy objects to prevent chipping of the surface.
HARMFUL ELEMENTS
The effects of atmospheric pollution, airborne salt, dirt, and grime accumulate over time and should be
cleaned at regular intervals. A powder coating finish should be cleaned every two to three months. UV
exposure will degrade the color and the finish, especially for darker colors Harmful chemicals should be
removed immediately. The damage from solvents and thinners may not be immediately visible since it
can take up to twelve months for damage to appear.
DO
Use isopropyl alcohol or methylated
spirits
Use a pressure washer, with filtered
water and under low pressure
Apply non-abrasive car wax with a UV
blocker on powder coated surfaces, such
as outdoor furniture, outdoor lighting
fixtures, stairways, handrails, guardrails,
and fence
DO NOT
Use paint thinners or solvents such as: Acetone,
Mineral Spirits, Lacquer thinners, Turpentine, White
Spirits
Use chlorine or harsh cleaning solutions
Rub the powder coat excessively, especially the
metallic finishes
Get sunscreen on your powder coating finish, as
some brands may affect painted finishes
Use unfiltered tap water or ground water when
cleaning a powder coating finish
