RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CLEANING
 | RubbAir Doors feature easily maintainable surfaces. The standard color (black)
features a smooth surface for the door body whereas the impact pane! flexible color
facings and the plastic color facing feature a textured surface (referred to as
"haircell"). Cleaning these surfaces with soap and water or commercially
available cleaners such as "Fantastic" and "409"removes all but the
most stubborn dirt. For ground-in dirt, we suggest using "Lori J" by Ramco
Chemical, Inc.,Holbrook, MA 02343 or "Zoom" by Amway Products. Indelible ink and
other marks can be removed with "D.W.R.II" (Dirty Word Remover II) by KRC
Research Corp., 315 N. Washington Avenue, Moorestown, NJ, 08057. |
| Cleaning the textured surfaces is easier with a soft bristle brush, rotating the
brush in a circular motion and collecting the loosened dirt with a clean cloth. |
| Re-conditioning the door surface to a soft luster can be done with Armor-All
Cleaner and Armor-All Protectant, manufactured by Very Important Products, Inc.,Newport
Beach, CA, 92660. Testing reveals the Armor-All Products also tend to leave a thin residue
which facilitates future cleaning. |
| Assuring that the doors are plumb and free-swinging in the opening will reduce
binding and subsequent drag on the door surface, thereby reducing mars and dirt from
passing loads. Or, if your doors have deep seat cams or the standard (1 ½" rise)
cams, convert them to ¾" rise for less drag (and less wear and tear). |
| Following these suggestions will keep your RubbAir Doors clean and attractive for
their intended long life. |
