Maintenance of Plantation Shutters

All warranties offered herein are non-transferable and only apply where the goods have been paid for in full. Proof of purchase will be required prior to any claim being lodged. CommandeX
Pty Ltd strives to provide the best products, manufactured from only quality components however, no warranty or guarantee is offered on the performance of any product in the event of wilful damage or misuse or wear and tear.

Care and Maintenance of Your Powder-Coated Products

The effects of ultra violet light, pollution, dirt, grime and salt deposits are detrimental to a powder-coated or painted surface as they accumulate over time. To comply with warranty
requirements and extend the life of your CommandeX Pty Ltd products a very simple maintenance program should be implemented. As a general rule, cleaning of the powder-coated
or painted surface must take place regularly. However, in areas where pollutants are more prevalent, especially in coastal or industrial areas, a cleaning program should be carried out on a
more frequent basis.

To clean the powder-coated surface:

1. Carefully remove any loose deposits with a wet sponge.

2. Use a soft brush or cloth (non-abrasive), and a mild household or carwash detergent to remove other deposits. Do not use steel wool, scrapers, scouring liquids or powders as
they will permanently scratch the coated surface.

3. Rinse off with clean water.

Please note that detergents that recommend the use of gloves when handling should be avoided as this is a good indication that the detergent is harsh, and therefore unsuitable for cleaning the
powder-coated surface.
