Our product is closed cell foam. Water will not penetrate the surface. Grease could distort the paint and and harsh abrasives will deteriorate the paint. Our care and maintenance guide: CARE AND MAINTENANCE
INTERIOR CLEANING. Use a feather duster or a non-abrasive cotton cloth to remove any dust or cobwebs. Please refer to the Do Not Use list below for harmful cleaning agents and equipment.
EXTERIOR CLEANING. Use a garden hose with a nozzle set to the lowest pressure setting i.e., shower setting with clean water. Lightly hose the panels or beams with a shower spray pattern, fanning back and forth from the highest point working your way down, allowing dirt to drip down to the ground. This process might take several passes. Please refer to the Do Not Use list below for harmful cleaning agents and equipment.
UV PROTECTION. All painted products are finished with Sherwin Williams coatings that contain UV inhibitors. While Sherwin Williams coatings are formulated to withstand the natural elements, normal wear and tear can be expected and may require periodic maintenance. Some degree of fading may occur depending on the level of sun exposure, regionality and other environmental conditions. To help minimize the natural fading that will occur over time, we recommend that a light coating of surface applied UV topcoat be applied every 3 to 5 years based on the product's exposure to the sun. Please consult your local Sherwin Williams store for proper product and application methods. Additionally, you should inspect your panels and beams annually for areas that have the paint removed. If you find any areas where the paint has been removed, they should be touched up to protect the high-density polyurethane from UV emitted from the sun.
Exterior Applications: Barron Designs suggests adding an UV topcoat for enhanced UV protection on products used on the exterior of buildings. This can be factory applied for an additional charge. While the UV topcoat provides enhanced protection, some degree of fading should still be expected. Panels & beams still need to be inspected yearly for any paint that has been removed and touched up. We recommend re-applying a UV topcoat every 3 to 5 years to maintain an additional degree of protection.
