Technical Bulletin Maintenance of Kestrel PVC-UE & PVC-U Products This technical bulletin will guide you through Kestrel's recommended method of maintaining your PVC-UE and PVC-U installation. These products are low maintenance and with the required care and attention will stay looking good for years to come. However, there are some external factors which may adversely affect the appearance of any PVC, especially after extended weathering: • Solvent based cleaners • Abrasive cleaners • Environmental contamination e.g. dirt / pollen Hence in order to maintain the appearance, it will be necessary to wash the installation with warm soap and water to remove surface dirt. The frequency of this will depend upon the local environmental conditions. This cleaning should be carried out with copious amounts of soapy water to avoid any chance of scratching of the surface. When wiping over ALWAYS use a soft cloth or sponge. NEVER use solvent-based cleaners. NEVER use abrasive cleaners. Repairs and Remedial Work In the event of a profile becoming damaged in service it is recommended that the damaged profile is removed and replaced to ensure full product performance.
