If you experience discolouration of materials resulting from the effects of their exposure, bad weather and/or the environment, is not a defect, you can use a colour renovator to rectify this issue.

Instructions for use of the ALU renovator product Part 206511PF

It is recommended not to apply the product to hot and sunny surfaces:

Our advice: Apply the product as early in the morning as possible because aluminum is cold.

List of steps to follow:

• Clean your gate and/or fence like your car with a pressure washer, avoiding the jet too

close, or simply using a jet of water + a soft sponge (never the abrasive green side) and

soapy water.

Our advice: You can even dry the gate with a chamois leather to avoid streaks in case of hard

water. As an extra precaution, please let it dry overnight.

• Apply the undiluted product to your surface using a soft cloth.

• Let the product sit for 10 to 20 minutes, but do not wait for it to dry completely.

• Wipe or smooth away any excess product with a microfiber cloth to avoid any overspray or

buildup.

Consumption data: 0.5 l for approximately 30 m² of surface area
