Case Study 91 - Longboat Key, Florida - Repairing Acid Etched Anodized Aluminum Windows
|
|
|
|
|
|
>> View Case Study here.
|
|
Condition:
The new clear anodized aluminum factory finish was stained and etched
during the construction of this Longboat Key, Florida custom home. During construction acidic concrete slurry, mortar and
corrosive cement splashed on the anodized aluminum window frames and
anodized aluminum doors. The silver colored anodized finish was acid
etched, corroded, scratched and oxidized. The G.C. requested that we
get the concrete, cement and mortar overspray stains off and get the
acid etching out of the anodized aluminum surfaces. As acid burned
anodized aluminum cleaning and chemically etched anodized aluminum
refinishing experts, our client had confidence we could recondition,
refinish and restore the damaged anodized aluminum surface finishes.
York Property Company Solution:
To clean, repair, renew and protect the damaged anodized aluminum
surfaces we refurbished the anodized aluminum with our acid etched
anodized aluminum restoration cleaning and oxidized anodized aluminum
reconditioning system. We had to remove the concrete, cement and mortar
overspray, splatter and debris while repairing and refinishing the
anodized aluminum without causing any more damage to the thin anodized
anodic finish. Although the anodized aluminum building facade window
mullions and doors were seriously damaged, our anodized aluminum
construction cleaning, restoration and rejuvenating program allowed us
to clean, repair, refurbish and restore the acid etched and oxidized
anodized aluminum to "like new". The anodized aluminum is protected
from further corrosion, oxidation and pitting. |

Case Study 92 - Tampa, Florida - Removing Peeling Paint on Anodized Aluminum
|
|
|
|
>> View Case Study here.
|
|
Condition: The Kawneer Class I
exterior bronze anodized aluminum window frames on these commercial
buildings in Tampa, Florida were painted after they were installed on
the building. The brown paint coating on the anodized aluminum window
frames were peeling and the old, brittle, flaking paint had to be
removed. The owners wanted the anodized aluminum window frames to be
restored to the original luster of new brown colored anodized aluminum
window frames, sills and flashing. If the anodized aluminum was not
coated once it was clean and refurbished the anodized aluminum and
anodic layer would bleach, stain, acid etch and oxidize. To maintain
the integrity of the brown colored bronze anodic finish ownership
requested the anodized aluminum building facade window frames be coated
and protected with the York Property Company anodized aluminum clear
protective coating.
York Property Company Solution:
To refurbish and recondition the old, faded and contaminated exterior
anodized aluminum window frames we had to chemically strip the paint
off the anodized aluminum finish without damaging the brown anodic
layer. Removing the paint was time consuming and required our skill,
expertise and experience as commercial anodized aluminum window frame
restoration contracting specialists. If the window frames were
bleached, burned, oxidized, acid etched or scratched the anodized
aluminum would have to be painted again. The anodized aluminum
reconditioning program got the paint off of the anodized aluminum
window frames safely and refurbished the anodized aluminum dark brown
color and finish. The anodized aluminum protective coating enhanced the
reflective sheen and gloss while protecting the anodized aluminum from
the sun, mineral deposits, calcium stains and caustic airborne
contaminants. |

Case Study 93 - New Orleans, Louisiana - Hurricane Damaged Anodized Aluminum Restoration
|
|
|
|
>> View Case Study here.
|
|
Condition:
During Hurricane Katrina the black anodized aluminum metal finishes on
this commercial building in New Orleans, Louisiana were scratched,
dented and damaged by wind driven airborne particulate and debris. The
black anodized aluminum doors, anodized aluminum storefront and
anodized aluminum window frames were scratched, marred, scuffed, dull
and faded as the wind driven debris abraded the surface of the anodized
aluminum metal finishes.
York Property Company Solution:
Working with Zurich Insurance we were able to ascertain what anodized
aluminum metal damage was hurricane related and what was general
weathering - anodized aluminum color fading, anodized aluminum finish
oxidation, anodized aluminum surface corrosion, anodized aluminum
pitting and anodized aluminum staining. With our oxidized anodized
aluminum refinishing and scratched anodized aluminum metal restoration
expertise our metal surface analysis and metal repair specification
allowed Zurich Insurance to settle with the buildings owner to clean,
refinish and restore the specified anodized aluminum surfaces. |

Case Study 94 - Greeley, Colorado - Oxidized Anodized Aluminum Construction Cleaning
|
|
|
|
>> View Case Study here.
|
|
Condition:
The dark bronze anodized aluminum storefront window mullions, anodized
aluminum doors and anodized aluminum metal window frames on this
Greeley, Colorado commercial building were damaged, acid etched,
corroded, oxidized and stained during the mortar acid cleaning process.
The anodized aluminum new construction project was compromised by the
concrete, cement and mortar etching, corrosion, damage and stains.
York Property Company Solution:
The G.C. required that we repair the anodized aluminum damage and
remove the anodized aluminum staining, etching, corrosion and
oxidation. We cleaned, repaired and restored the new anodized aluminum
curtain wall window mullions, anodized aluminum doors and anodized
aluminum window frames as if they had not been damaged by the concrete
and mortar overspray. The building facade anodized aluminum silver
color, metallic satin sheen and gloss looked new and clean when the
mortar and concrete contamination removal construction cleaning process
was complete. |

Case Study 95 - Lafayette, Louisiana - Restoring Acid Etched Anodized Aluminum Windows
|
|
|
|
>> View Case Study here.
|
|
Condition: The new clear anodized aluminum window frames and the 10' high anodized aluminum
lanai door frames on this custom home in Lafayette, Louisiana
were damaged, stained, oxidized and acid etched by the brick mason contractor acid
cleaning the brick above the anodized aluminum window frame
extrusions. The muriatic acid restoration cleaning agent flash etched and
burned all of the building facade clear anodized aluminum. The milky
white chemical staining left the silver metallic anodized aluminum
damaged, flash oxidized and acid burned beyond repair by traditional construction cleaning methods and materials.
York Property Company Solution:
The General Contractor retained us as acid etched anodized aluminum
construction cleaning contracting experts. We were contracted to clean,
repair and restore the chemical stained and muriatic acid burned
anodized aluminum storefront window frames and anodized aluminum lanai
door frames. This project required that we repair the acid etching
damage and return the anodized aluminum to the original condition
without painting, capping or replacing any of the anodized aluminum
extrusions. The two storey acid
etched anodized aluminum residential building facade storefront was
repaired and restored to the original color and sheen specification
with our acid etched anodized aluminum construction cleaning and
restoration system.

Case Study 96 - Clearwater Beach, Florida - Field Painting Aluminum Windows
|
|
|
|
>> View Case Study here.
|
|
Condition:
The factory applied white paint finish on the new exterior painted
aluminum window frames had started cracking and peeling due to interior
paint being applied at the factory vs. exterior paint as specified. The
paint finish was prematurely fading, flaking off and peeling. The G.C.
required that this situation be remedied immediately as the luxury
ocean front residence in Clearwater Beach, Florida was still under
construction.
York Property Company Solution:
As painted aluminum window frame restoration contracting specialists we
were contracted to mobilize on-site and chemically strip the failing
paint and abrade the window frames down to the mill finish aluminum. We
could not paint over the failing paint as the bond line adhesion was
compromised. After the stripping and surface cleaning was complete we
primed and then spray applied the originally specified paint to all
exterior painted aluminum window frame surfaces. |

Case Study 97 - Rockledge, Florida - Repairing Stucco Stains on Anodized Aluminum
|
|
|
|
>> View Case Study here.
|
|
Condition:
The new Class I bronze anodized aluminum storefront window frames and
anodized aluminum doors on this large construction project in
Rockledge, Florida were oxidized and acid etched during construction.
The factory finished anodized aluminum surface finish was acid burned,
blemished and stained whitish gray with lime contaminated debris,
acidic water and stucco overspray. The stucco contractor failed to tape
the window frame perimeter edge correctly allowing acidic stucco to
leech onto the fragile bronze anodic layer. The anodized aluminum new
construction project was compromised by the stucco and lime residue,
white stucco splatter, scarring and acid burns.
York Property Company Solution:
The General Contractor contracted us to clean,
repair and restore the damaged, oxidized and acid etched bronze
anodized aluminum
window frames. We removed the acid burns and white colored stains on
the
new anodized aluminum window frame sections as if they had not been
acid etched, stained or damaged. The architect specified that we repair
the acid etching damage and return the anodized aluminum to the
original condition. The bronze anodized aluminum looked new and clean
when the anodized aluminum construction cleaning and anodized aluminum
stucco and acid etching removal program was complete. |

Case Study 98 - Markham, Ontario - Faded Painted Aluminum Entrance Canopy Refinishing |
|
|
|
>> View Case Study here. |
|
Condition:
The original red factory paint coating on the painted aluminum entrance
canopy panels and painted aluminum mullions at this commercial building
in Markham, Ontario lost the original sheen, gloss, color depth and luster. The painted
aluminum panels and painted aluminum 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. Painted aluminum oxidation removal and
reconditioning the paint finish will protect and preserve the painted
aluminum from weathering and pollutants.
York Property Company 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. |

|
|
|
|
>> View Case Study here.
|
|
Condition:
The service life of the exterior bronze anodized aluminum on this
commercial building in Winston-Salem, North Carolina had expired. The
bronze anodized aluminum building facade storefront window frames and
doors on this owner occupied Winston-Salem Credit Union had degraded
from age, environmental contaminants, pollutants, acid rain and a lack
of anodized aluminum preventive maintenance washing. The anodized

Ownership required the stains, oxidation and damage to the anodized
aluminum be cleaned, repaired and refurbished to return the bronze
anodized aluminum window frames to a preserved and protected condition.
York Property Company Solution:
To repair, restore and protect the brown colored anodized aluminum
building facade window frames and doors from the damaging elements

application of our anodized aluminum clear protective coating. Without
painting, our oxidized anodized aluminum cleaning and refinishing
program returned the bronze anodized aluminum window frames factory
finish to as good as new and now protects the anodic finish from
weathering, pitting, oxidation and corrosion. The specified anodized
aluminum remedial maintenance process cleans, repairs, protects and
preserves anodized aluminum surfaces from damaging pollutants and

|
|
Condition:
The red painted aluminum storefront window frames at over 4000 AutoZone
retail locations nationwide were getting dirty, faded, discolored and
contaminated. There was no short or long-term maintenance washing

refurbish the painted aluminum storefront window frames.
York Property Company

contracting specialists we were retained to analyze the painted
aluminum at locations in Pennyslvania, North Carolina and Texas. With the findings of our tests and analysis we prepared
remedial painted aluminum cleaning and maintenance specification
documents. With our painted aluminum
remedial maintenance washing specification a national painted aluminum
