Railings
EnduroShield provides both hydrophobic and oleophobic protection, reducing corrosion and tea staining that often forms in coastal environments. Similar to a non-stick fry pan, cleaning is made easier using a mild detergent and microfiber cloth.
What is the best way to clean my stainless steel once it has been treated?
When cleaning the treated stainless steel be careful not to use any rough, gritty or abrasive cleaners as they may damage the coating. An all purpose cleaner, mild detergent or a damp microfibre cloth (recommended) is all that is needed to clean the surface.
How often should I clean the stainless steel once EnduroShield has been applied?
A quick clean is recommended every one to two weeks depending on the exposure of surface that the coating has been applied to.
Will the coating crack, peel or discolour over time?
No, the coating is only 2 molecules thick and is transparent. It will not crack or discolour over time. It is not like a lacquer or varnish.
Does the coating get attacked by common household chemicals?
Generally no, but the coating can be effected by strong acids and alkalis.
Will the surface become patchy if the coating is worn off in any way?
No. The coating is only two molecules thick and transparent, thus it does not change the appearance of the surface. If an abrasive was used, where the coating was worn away would not be visible. That area would, however, be harder to clean. The unprotected surface can be easily repaired by cleaning and re-spraying with EnduroShield. The molecules will bond directly to the untreated surface.
Can EnduroShield be applied to existing stainless steel?
Yes it can. EnduroShield after-market applicators can apply EnduroShield to new and existing stainless steel surfaces. When applied, EnduroShield will prevent the surface from deteriorating and will make it much easier to maintain. In cases where the stainless steel is permanently stained, the applicator may be able to restore it back to a near new condition before treating with EnduroShield.
Can the coating be damaged?
Yes. Be careful not to use any rough, gritty, highly acidic, alkaline or abrasive cleaners such as cerium oxide as they may damage the protective coating. Cleaners like this damage or polish back the actual substrate of the surface.
Does the area to be treated need to be masked?
No, the product is not corrosive and will not harm fixtures, frames or fittings. In fact, it will render the surfaces water repellent for a period of time.
