Exterior VINYL SIDING
• Wash using a soft cloth or ordinary long handled soft bristle brush. For textured surfaces, use only a soft bristled brush to avoid smearing the stain into the grooves of the texture. • Always start at the bottom and work up to the top to prevent streaking. • For difficult dirt and stains, use readily available household cleaners that can be mixed with water, or a solution of vinegar and water; all mixed in proportions of 30% cleaner and 70%water. • Do NOT use any harsh or abrasive chemicals. • Do NOT use a hose or power-wash vinyl siding or windows as this may create a leak infiltration into your home. Due to the nature of vinyl siding, it is very important to keep all items that generate heat such as a grill, etc. 6’ or more away from vinyl materials as a melting affect will occur. This type of damage is not covered by your Limited Warranty. Vinyl is highly expansive which is why it can move and this is considered normal. Vinyl siding and vinyl windows come closer to being completely maintenance free more than any other exterior building product today.
