Case Study here. |
|
Condition:
The new clear anodized aluminum factory finish was stained and etched
during the renovation and restoration of this Washington, DC landmark
building. 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 15 - Anodized Aluminum Concrete and Mortar Damage Refinishing

Case Study here. |
|
Condition:
The new commercial clear anodized aluminum storefront window frames and
grand foyer curtain wall on the Performing Arts Center in Broken Arrow,
Oklahoma were acid etched when rain water ran through the curtain wall
extrusions during installation. Concrete, mortar and lime residue
leached onto the unprotected silver / gray colored anodized aluminum
surfaces. Unfortunately, the G.C. hired a contractor that compounded
the problem by acid cleaning the anodized aluminum that etched the
anodized aluminum extrusions even further.
York Property Company
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
anodized aluminum curtain wall. They required that we repair the damage
and return the anodized aluminum to the original color, satin sheen and
gloss. 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. |

Damaged Bronze Anodized Aluminum Surfaces |

>> View
Case Study here. |
|
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 brown colored anodized aluminum when they were
removing stucco overspray. When they tried to get the stucco off of the
anodized aluminum they scratched the fragile anodized aluminum surface
finish. The anodized aluminum new construction project was compromised
by the oxidation, scratches, etching and stains.
York Property Company
Solution: Archer Western Contractors 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 anodized aluminum construction cleaning and anodized aluminum
scratch remover program was complete. |

Case Study 33 - Restoring Acid Etched Anodized Aluminum Clad Panels |
|
|
>> View
Case Study here. |
|
Condition:
The clear anodized aluminum curtain wall panels on this Class "A"
office building in Richmond, Virginia 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 anodized aluminum anodic skin
on the aluminum. The acid wash flash oxidized, chemically etched and
acid burned all of the anodized aluminum window frames and silver
colored anodized aluminum paneling.
York Property Company
Solution: As acid etched anodized aluminum cleaning,
chemical burned anodized aluminum refinishing and oxidized anodized
aluminum 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
anodized aluminum restoration system. The anodized aluminum surfaces
are now clean, repaired, refurbished and protected from the sun,
weather and further damage. |
