Condition: The
ConocoPhillips Company office park in Houston, Texas was ready for an
extensive
building facade restoration. One of the specified areas was to clean,
refinish and restore all the
exterior anodized aluminum window mullions, anodized aluminum doors and
anodized aluminum window frames.
|
|
Condition: The
anodized aluminum metal building facade panels were silicone stained by
old, deteriorated, leeching and degraded
caulking. The original Duranodic panels were
faded, discolored, uneven and did not match
the newly built
clean anodized aluminum stair-tower panels. The original panels
were in need of cleaning and restoration.
|
|
 |
|
The Solution: The sixteen
building office campus has miles of window mullions. Without the
correct specification to restore the anodized
aluminum the project
would be a failure. Our Technical Consulting Division was contracted to
specify and implement the correct
cleaning and refinishing procedures.
|
|
The Solution: To
achieve the desired result this project required our anodized aluminum
construction cleaning and our aluminum restoration refinishing
system. We exceeded ownership's expectations as the new
clean stair-tower panels match the clean and refinished original panels.

Condition: The
clear anodized aluminum curtain wall panels
on this
Class "A" office building were acid etched when mortar and lime residue
leaked onto the unprotected anodized aluminum surface finishes. An
anodized aluminum construction cleaning contractor used an acid wash to
remove the white stains which further etched the anodic skin on the
aluminum.
The acid wash flash oxidized all of the anodized aluminum finishes.
|
|
Condition: The
original paint coating on the painted aluminum curtain wall panels, window frames and
balcony railings at this
luxury residential condominium had chalked and faded. The paint was
damaged, oxidized, stained and bleached. The condominium owners and
management
wanted a painted aluminum curtain wall cleaning, restoration and
preservation solution. |
|
 |
|
The Solution: As
anodized aluminum cleaning, refinishing and restoration experts we were
contracted to work on the project. To clean, restore and protect the
anodized aluminum curtain wall panels we used our anodized aluminum
mortar and lime etching removal and restoration system. The anodized
aluminum surfaces are now clean, repaired, refurbished and protected
from the sun, weather and further damage.
|
|
The Solution: To
clean, refurbish and protect the exterior painted surfaces from further
deterioration,
we refurbished the curtain wall original paint
finish with our painted
aluminum cleaning and restoration system. When completed the painted
aluminum curtain wall panels were clean and restored to the original
condition with renewed luster and sheen. |

Condition: The
exterior metal fascia panels and metal light fixture cases at the
entrance to this building in
Hackensack, NJ were showing signs of age. The metal finish was
oxidizing, tarnishing and discolored. The old, sun and u.v. damaged
lacquer had weathered causing the lacquer coating to peel and crack.
This coating failure exposed the underlying metal to airborne and
waterborne contaminants and pollutants. The metal finishes were etching
and turning a green brown color. Metal refinishing was needed to clean,
resurface, repair and restore the metal panels and metal light fixtures.
|
|
Condition: The
interior stainless steel food processing equipment, stainless steel
commercial kitchen
appliances and stainless steel elevator doors at the Shrimp Boat
Restaurant in Panama
City, Florida were
scratched, stained, acid etched and damaged by the stainless steel
construction
cleaning contractor. Muriatic acid vapor flash rusted all of the
stainless steel surfaces. In an attempt to repair and remove the rust
and damage from the stainless steel the construction cleaning
contractor cross grained and
scratched the satin finish on all of the stainless steel surfaces.
|
|
|
|
The Solution: The
only solution for this metal refinishing project was to strip the
previously applied
lacquer coating and refinish the metal. We had to get the tarnish off
and remove the patina, stains, oxidation, corrosion, pitting and
discoloration from the metal surface and metal finish. As metal
refinishing and metal restoration experts we cleaned, refinished and
restored the metal panels and metal light fixtures. The metal is now
refurbished with the original metal color, sheen and factory applied
gloss. |
|
The Solution: The
general contractor contracted us to repair, restore
and refinish the damaged stainless steel by removing the scratches and
rust from the finishes. We achieved this with our stainless steel
scratch removal and stainless steel rust removal program to repair and
restore the
damage to the new stainless steel surfaces. We cleaned, repaired and
refinished the damaged stainless steel kitchen appliances, elevator
doors and food processing equipment as if they had not been scratched
or
damaged.

Condition: The
original factory paint coating on the painted aluminum entrance canopy
at this
commercial building lost the original sheen, gloss, color depth and
luster. The painted aluminum panels and window frames were oxidized,
faded, chalked and bleached. To avoid chipping, peeling and flaking
paint our client chose to refurbish, renew and rejuvenate the original
factory applied paint finish. Oxidation removal and reconditioning the
paint finish will protect and preserve the painted aluminum from
weathering and pollutants. |
|
Condition: The
clear anodized aluminum storefront window frames and doors on this Ft.
Myers, Florida strip mall were acid etched, blemished and stained
whitish gray with
lime contaminated debris, water and stucco overspray. Concrete, stucco
and mortar residue had splashed onto the unprotected anodized aluminum
surfaces. The anodized aluminum new construction project was
compromised by the concrete, stucco and lime residue, white splatter,
scarring, acid burns and blemishes.
|
|
|
|
The Solution: To
clean, repair, renew and protect the paint finish from further
oxidation, corrosion, pitting and deterioration,
we refurbished and reconditioned the painted
aluminum
canopy surfaces original paint finish with our painted
aluminum cleaning and restoration system. Our faded paint refinishing
and refurbishing program returned the painted aluminum factory finish
to as good as new and now protects the paint finish from weathering and
oxidation. The paint finish has the original sheen, color depth and
gloss protected from U.V. exposure and corrosion.
|
|
The Solution: The
G.C. retained us as an anodized aluminum construction cleaning expert
to clean, repair and restore the chemical stained and 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 natural color anodized
aluminum
surfaces are now clean, repaired, refurbished and protected from
further damage. |

Condition:
The anodized aluminum window
frames, anodized aluminum sliding doors and aluminum balcony railings
on this South Florida oceanfront hotel are continually exposed to the
sun, u.v. rays, humidity, heat, salt water mist and corrosive salt air.
In this damaging and caustic environment the anodized aluminum metal
finishes had weathered, oxidized, pitted and stained. The original
gloss and color of the anodized aluminum anodic finish had faded,
bleached and was damaged by salt in the environment. The new hotel
owners saw the results of not washing, caring
for or maintaining the anodized aluminum window mullions and frames,
anodized aluminum sliding glass doors and anodized aluminum railings.
|
|
Condition: The
metal clad revolving doors, metal columns, metal window frames, metal
panels and metal PPL Utilities sign had oxidized, tarnished and pitted
to the point that metal refinishing was required. The old, sun damaged,
u.v. weathered and faded clear lacquer wore out and was wearing off,
cracking and peeling. The exposed architectural metal finish was
tarnishing, oxidizing, pitting, scratched, stained and turning green.
The metals patina needed to be removed. On-site metal
refinishing and scratch removal was specified to clean, repair,
refurbish and protect the metal surfaces and metal finish.
|
|
 |
|
The Solution: The
new owners required the anodized aluminum continually look new and
clean and not have any oxidation, stains or salt residue contamination.
As anodized aluminum oxidation removal,
anodized aluminum pitting and corrosion removal and anodized aluminum
refinishing specialists we specified the correct cleaning methods and
renovation materials. This anodized aluminum restoration specification
enabled the stucco painting contractor to refurbish the anodized
aluminum surface finishes while the access equipment was on-site. The
spray applied lacquer now protects the anodized aluminum from salt
water damage, salt air damage, corrosive pollutants, airborne
contaminants and salt water mist associated with an oceanfront hotel.
|
|
The Solution: The
metal
refinishing, repair and restoration project was completed at night and
on the weekend. Metal renovation had to get the failed lacquer off the
metal and remove the brown patina, scratches, tarnish and stains. Metal
polishing and metal restoration assisted in removing the oxidation,
pitting, corrosion and discoloration. During the metal repair we spray
applied a fresh coat of lacquer to protect the metal finish from the
damaging elements, pollutants and contaminants. As metal refinishing
experts the
metal clad window frames, metal panels, metal columns, metal revolving
doors and metal sign are now clean, refurbished, rejuvenated, restored
and protected.
