Our products are designed to be effortless and low maintenance. Endurawood's specialised finish has outstanding properties to ensure ease of maintenance and longevity of your surfaces. This means you can spend less time upkeeping your application and more time enjoying it.
Here are a few guidelines to help you keep your application looking like new.
Endurawood is pre-finished in long-lasting electrostatically applied powder coating. A combination of painstaking preparation, careful workmanship and the latest technology have come together to bring you your powder coated Endurawood product. Powder coating is one of the most durable colour coatings available and with very little effort on your part will provide many years of excellent service. Endurawood powder coatings are maintainable for an indefinite period under normal environmental conditions, provided that the recommended care and maintenance practices are followed.
To maintain the good looks of your powder coated aluminium, each surface needs regular washing all over – not just the parts that are sheltered from the rain. In fact looking after your Endurawood finish is very much like looking after a new car – a regular wash keeps your investment in smart condition. Washing with a soft brush and mild pH neutral detergent followed by thorough rinsing with fresh water will ensure that substances such as airborne salts, dirt and pollutants detrimental to the long term performance of the powder coated film are removed. Where the atmosphere is deemed to be non-hazardous such as rural or normal urban environments, cleaning must take place at least every 12 months. In areas subject to high pollution such as industrial areas, geothermal environments or coastal environments then the cleaning frequency should be increased to every three months. In particularly hazardous locations such as beach fronts, severe marine environments or areas of high industrial pollution the period between cleaning should be reduced to monthly.
Painting around your house exterior may cause paint splashes to mar the appearance of your Endurawood. Such splashes should be removed with fresh water immediately. Using solvents on your joinery puts it at risk of damage. If paint splashes need to be removed then white spirits may be used provided that the surfaces are thoroughly washed with a soft brush and mild pH neutral detergent followed by thorough rinsing with fresh water immediately afterwards. It is recommended that the solvent be tested for suitability on a non-visible powder coated section prior to its use.
