|
Condition: The
degraded, old and damaged concrete upper and lower curtain wall panels
were clad with new
painted
aluminum metal panels during the building renovation. The original
aged, chalked, faded, oxidized and
dull painted aluminum window
mullions did not
match the new, shiny, clean panels. Ownership
wanted the window mullions cleaned, repaired and restored to match the
new painted aluminum building facade cladding. We were contracted to
achieve these metal refinishing objectives.
|
|
Condition: The
anodized aluminum
clad building facade panels and window frames on this owner occupied
commercial building in
Houston, Texas were
oxidized, bleached, pitted and stained. The anodized aluminum panels
looked old, aged,
dull and faded as they had never been cleaned, washed or maintained
since the building was new. ADP, Inc. wanted to clean, refurbish and
protect the damaged exterior anodized aluminum building facade panel system. |
|
 |
|
The Solution: To refurbish
the old, stained, oxidized
and faded painted aluminum window
mullions and get them to match the
new exterior painted aluminum
panels we restored and reconditioned the original painted aluminum
finishes with our
paint
restoration system. This paint restoration system removes the old,
faded and damaged
painted aluminum pigment while protecting the underlying original color
from degrading to the exposure of the damaging elements.
|
|
The Solution: The
anodized aluminum cladding was cleaned, repaired
and restored with our exterior anodized aluminum cleaning and
refinishing system. The
anodized aluminum was restoration cleaned and the metal clad panels
were
coated with our clear protective coating. With the anodized aluminum
surfaces now
clean, the coating will preserve and protect the anodic layer from
airborne and waterborne contaminants, sun and u.v. exposure and all
around general weathering.

Condition: The
stainless steel
metal siding panels on this new
Pensacola,
Florida
oceanfront residence will be continually exposed to the sun, humidity,
heat, salt water mist and
corrosive salt air. All of these acidic and caustic elements are a
recipe for rust, oxidation and corrosion. In this damaging and
corrosive environment the stainless steel clad siding panels will
stain, pitt and rust in a
matter of months. The owners wanted a stainless steel cleaning, washing
and maintenance specification to
keep the stainless steel metal clad building facade panels from
staining, pitting and rusting. |
|
Condition: The
dark bronze anodized aluminum window frames at this new construction
project in Ft. Bragg, North Carolina were damaged, oxidized, scratched
and stained during construction. The stucco contractor scratched the
anodized aluminum when they were removing stucco overspray. When they
tried to get the stucco off of the anodized aluminum they scratched the
surface finish. The anodized aluminum new construction project was
compromised by the oxidation, scratches, etching and stains.
|
|
 |
|
The Solution: They
required that the stainless steel clad siding continually look new,
clean and rust free. As
stainless steel rust removal, stainless steel cleaning and stainless
steel restoration specialists we
specified the
correct
cleaning methods and materials to enable the on-site maintenance staff
to keep the exterior stainless steel siding panels clean, protected and
rust
free from
the caustic
environmental elements, salt air, waterborne and airborne pollutants
and contaminants associated with an oceanfront residence.
|
|
The Solution: The
General Contractor contracted us to clean, repair and restore the
damaged and scratched bronze anodized aluminum window frames. We
removed the scratches and white colored stains on the new anodized
aluminum window
frame sections as if they had not been scratched or damaged. The bronze
anodized aluminum looked new and clean when the construction cleaning
and anodized aluminum scratch remover program was complete.

Condition: The
anodized aluminum storefront window frames
and doors on this
Denville, NJ technical school were acid etched
when an addition was added to the building. Concrete, mortar and lime
residue had splashed onto the unprotected anodized aluminum surfaces.
To remove the concrete, mortar and lime residue, the brick was
chemically cleaned with acid that flash oxidized the anodized aluminum
window frames and door sections.
|
|
Condition: The
anodized aluminum window frames, skylight
frames, storefront window frames and entrance doors on this
building facade in Minneapolis,
MN
were damaged, stained and acid etched by a contractor acid cleaning the
brick above the
windows. The restoration cleaning chemical flash etched
and oxidized all of the bronze anodized aluminum window frames and they
were no longer clean or in original condition.
|
|
|
|
The Solution: The
General Contractor retained us as an anodized aluminum construction
cleaning expert to clean, repair and restore the damaged anodized
aluminum storefront window frames and doors. They required that we
repair the damage and return the anodized aluminum to the original
condition. We achieved this request using our anodized
aluminum
concrete and mortar removal construction cleaning restoration system.
The anodized aluminum surfaces are now clean, repaired, refurbished and
protected from further damage.
|
|
The Solution: The
owner of the property demanded a remedy to clean, repair and refurbish
the bronze anodized aluminum to the original condition.
Our acid etching and oxidation removal program allowed us to clean,
preserve and restore the bronze anodized aluminum surface finishes. The
three storey anodized aluminum building facade window frames, skylight
frames, storefront window frames and entrance doors
were cleaned, repaired, preserved and protected from any further damage
from the elements
and are as good as new for many years to come.

Condition: The
building facade metal panel system on this
power plant in Gallatin, TN
was showing the
effects of the caustic environment. It was dull, faded, acid etched,
oxidized and
stained. Money was in the budget to have the metal building facade panels restoration
cleaned and the oxidation removed. |
|
Condition: The
anodized aluminum exhaust vent extrusions on this Washington Heights,
NY facility were damaged during a fire. The black soot particles, black
water staining, smoke damage and
contamination had to be removed from the exterior aluminum metal
surfaces. The
only way to clean the metal was with our construction cleaning fire
damage repair and stain removal system.
|
|
|
|
The Solution: The
project required
an on-site field evaluation and analysis. Working
with the on-site maintenance personnel an anodized aluminum oxidation
removal and restoration
cleaning specification was prepared to
restoration clean the exterior anodized aluminum metal panel system.
|
|
The Solution: As
anodized aluminum restoration specialists we were retained to clean and
restore
the stained anodized aluminum without further damaging the anodized
aluminum surfaces. After the anodized
aluminum was restored it matched the
rest of the building and was clean of contamination.

Condition:
The exterior anodized aluminum clad
building
facade panels, window frames and entrance
doors on
this building in Toronto, ON were faded, stained,
dull and oxidized. The building looked dirty, discolored, streaked and
was showing its age. For long-term integrity considerations the
owners requested that we clean, repair and restore the damaged,
bleached and scratched anodized aluminum. |
|
Condition: The
exterior stainless steel columns on
the ATI Technologies Inc. building
were damaged, stained, visually displeasing and rusting. The stainless
steel clad column covers were in need of stainless
steel cleaning, rust removal and refinishing. Without this rust removal
program and stainless steel refinishing the exterior
stainless steel column covers would degrade
further to a point beyond repair.
|
|
 |
|
The Solution: The
building facade cleaning and restoration posed many challenges. We
could not clean or work on the building
during regular business hours as we would obstruct the main
entrance. The anodized aluminum building facade was restored over a
long weekend
to "like new". Our oxidation and scratch removal, anodized aluminum
restoration and clear protective coating program left the anodized
aluminum cladding clean, restored and protected. |
|
The Solution: ATI
Technologies Inc. specified and chose our stainless steel metal
cladding refinishing system as
the best course
of action. Over a weekend, to not interrupt building activity, we
cleaned, repaired and restored the stainless steel column covers to the
original manufacturer's specification. Our spray
applied clear protective coating will protect and maintain the
integrity of the stainless steel cladding from airborne and waterborne
caustic
pollutants and contaminants.
