Hi,
It’s Allen again. In the previous three posts, we talked about the quality of vitreous enamel panels. In this post, I would like to tell you about how to maintain your VE panels and how to always keep them in good condition after you complete the project.
VE panels are one of the most durable wall cladding materials. With appropriate maintenance, they can remain in a brand new condition for a lifetime even though they are installed in harsh environments.
I saw many users who seldom maintained their VE panels or they just used the wrong ways to maintain them. This could hardly keep the beauty of the panel’s finish and could also work to deteriorate the panel’s quality. Therefore, I hope this post will be helpful to all users and make all the VE panels around us always retain their beauty and quality.
Here are a few things I think you should know when you are using VE panels.
Regular inspection and cleaning
Inspect your VE panels visually and clean them twice a year by using sponges or cloth with water. It can keep VE panels in a good appearance all the time, as well as extend their durability.
How to remove stains
If the VE panels are stained with oil or grease, it can be easily removed by a scrubber pad with a neutral detergent.
How to remove graffiti/spray
If VE panels are contaminated by graffiti or spray, it can be easily removed by sponges or cloth with mineral spirits.
Let’s take a look at the below photos for your reference.
Hydrofluoric Acid (HF) will cause irreversible damage to a panel’s finish. Hence, please do not use this solution to clean VE panels.
