Sun Damaged, Weathered and Oxidized Curtain Wall
Faded
Paint Restoration
|
|
|
|
|
|
Condition:
The blue painted aluminum metal curtain wall window mullions, painted
aluminum window frames and painted metal panels on this commercial
building in Toronto, Ontario had degraded and weathered from thirty
years of sun and UV exposure, airborne pollutants, contaminants and
the lack of painted aluminum preventive maintenance washing. The
painted aluminum curtain wall mullions, painted aluminum window frames
and painted aluminum panels were chalked, faded, damaged, oxidized,
pitting and stained from vertical silicone leaching, caulking bleeding
and sealant runoff streaking. The original paint finish looked
aged and old after losing the factory gloss, paint color, luster and
sheen. All of the damaging caustic elements had to be removed from the
faded paint finish.
York Property Company Solution:
The eleven storey painted metal curtain wall extrusions were not clean,
damaged, stained, streaked and were visually displeasing. The original
factory applied faded paint finishes required oxidation, bleeding
caulking and leaching sealant removal. We cleaned, repaired and
restored the damaged and oxidized painted aluminum window frames,
painted metal mullions and painted aluminum panels with our faded paint
cleaning, paint reconditioning and paint restoration system. The
exterior of the Warner Brothers building looks renewed, clean and
rejuvenated. The original factory paint gloss, sheen and color are
refurbished. |

Weathered and Disclored Painted Aluminum

|
|
Condition: This commercial office building on the
waterfront in downtown Toronto, Ontario had oxidized painted aluminum curtain
wall panels, chalked and faded painted aluminum cladding and stained
painted aluminum window frames due to being exposed to the elements for
twenty-eight years. On-Site Property Management decided for tenant and
aesthetic considerations that cleaning and restoring the exterior
curtain wall painted aluminum metal panels, painted aluminum cladding
and painted aluminum window frames on the exterior of the building was
appropriate. Cleaning and refurbishing the green painted aluminum
building facade was less expensive than painting and achieved the same
result of revitalizing the painted finishes factory gloss, color and
sheen.

with the painted aluminum surface damage analysis and the correct
oxidized painted aluminum cleaning and refinishing specification for

aluminum refurbishing and reconditioning process. The corrosion,
oxidation and airborne particulate are gone and the painted aluminum
finish is renewed and clean. The painted aluminum finishes on this

come and are protected from the damaging atmosphere and caustic
environmental elements. |

|
|
|
Condition:
The clear anodized aluminum entrance doors and anodized aluminum
storefront window frames on this multi-million dollar East Hampton, New
York estate were damaged, stained, oxidized and acid etched by a
contractor
acid cleaning the teak soffit above the anodized aluminum window frame
extrusions. The acidic restoration cleaning agent flash etched and
burned all of the building facade clear anodized aluminum. The milky

damaged beyond traditional anodized aluminum cleaning methods.
York Property Company Solution:
The owner of the property with exacting standards demanded a remedy to

Repairing Dull, Scraped, Marred and Scuffed Anodized
Aluminum Window Frames
|
|
|
|
|
|
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,

Restoring Caulking Stained and Contaminated Stainless Steel Clad Panels
|
|
|
|
|
|
Condition:
The Hospice Care Center is affiliated with the Siskin Hospital in Chattanooga, Tennessee. After
years of exposure the exterior stainless steel building facade panels
were dirty, stained, degraded and contaminated from corrosive and
damaging waterborne and airborne contaminants. Compounding the problem was leaching
plasticizers and silicone from the degraded caulking. There had not been any
remedial maintenance washing over the life of the building which has
contributed to the severity of the contamination. The hospital is a
Class A facility and the unsightly condition of the stainless steel building facade had
to be remedied. Due to our renowned stainless steel restoration
expertise, our client contracted us to remove the contaminants and
caulking residue returning the stainless steel panels to their original
condition. This stainless steel cleaning program will leave the stainless steel building facade
clean and contaminant free for many years to
come.
York Property Company
Solution:
Cleaning and repairing the damaged and dirty stainless
steel panels required our years of oxidized stainless steel refinishing
and
caulking stained stainless steel restoration experience. As stainless
steel building facade cleaning and stainless steel restoration
specialists we restoration cleaned
the stainless steel building facade cladding panels with our dirty
stainless
steel restoration cleaning and caulking stained refinishing systems.
This program made
the dirty, oxidized and stained building facade panels shine. The
staining, corrosion and silicone caulking residue was expertly removed
as to
not further damage the satin stainless steel finish on the stainless
steel building facade panels. |

Cleaning Acid Etching Stains and Mortar Marks from Anodized Aluminum Window Frames
|
|
|
|
|
|
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. |

Stripping Old, Peeling and Flaking Paint from Anodized
Aluminum Panels
|
|
|
|
|
|
Condition: The clear anodized
aluminum Alucobond panels on this commercial building in Waco, Texas
were painted after they were installed on the building. The silver grey
paint coating on the anodized aluminum was peeling and the old,
brittle, flaking paint had to be removed. The owners wanted the
anodized aluminum clad panels to be restored to the original luster of
new anodized aluminum. If the anodized aluminum was not coated once it
was clean and refurbished the anodized aluminum would bleach, stain,
acid etch and oxidize. To maintain the integrity of the Alucobond
anodic finish ownership requested the anodized aluminum building facade
siding panels be coated and protected with the York Property Company
anodized aluminum protective coating.
York Property Company Solution:
To refurbish and recondition the old, faded and contaminated anodized
aluminum we had to strip the paint off the anodized aluminum finish
without damaging the anodic layer. Removing the paint was time
consuming and required our skill, expertise and experience as anodized
aluminum restoration specialists. If the Alucobond panels were acid
etched or scratched the anodized aluminum would have to be painted
again. The anodized aluminum reconditioning program got the paint off
of the panels safely and refurbished the anodized aluminum color and
finish. The anodized aluminum protective coating enhanced the natural
color and sheen while protecting the anodized aluminum from the sun,
dark grey mineral deposits, milky white calcium stains and caustic
airborne contaminants. |

Condition:
The exterior stainless steel metal storefront, stainless steel window
frames and stainless steel siding panels on the Adidas, USA building
facade in Spartanburg, South Carolina were stained, rusting, oxidized
and bleached from years of
exposure to damaging elements and a lack of routine maintenance
washing. The unsightly damage to the stainless steel panels required
our stainless steel metal refinishing expertise and stainless steel
rust removal program. Our client wanted the caulking and silicone
stained stainless steel repaired, clean and rust free for many years to
come.
York Property Company
Solution: Cleaning and repairing the damaged stainless
steel panels required our years of stainless steel refinishing and
restoration experience. As oxidized stainless steel cleaning and
rusting stainless steel restoration specialists we cleaned and restored
the stainless steel building facade cladding panels with our stainless
steel restoration cleaning, rust and scratch removal systems. This made
the dirty, dull, rusting, faded and corroded building shine. The rust,
staining, pitting, corrosion and oxidation was carefully removed as to
not further damage the satin stainless steel finish on the stainless
steel building facade panels and stainless steel storefront window
frames. |
