Care and Cleaning?
While our shutters come closer to being totally maintenance free than any other shutter on the market today, they will become dirty as does a freshly painted house, a new automobile or any other product which is exposed to atmospheric conditions. Generally, your shutters can be cleaned satifactorily with the use of any ordinary garden hose. If this does not do the job, we suggest the following: 1. With a garden hose and a soft bristle brush wash your shutters gently. 2. Where soil is of a stubborn nature, the following cleaning solutions work well: 1/3 cup detergent (Tide for example) 2/3 cup Tri-sodium (Soilax for example) 4 quarts of water In certain geographical areas where mildew may be a problem, substitute one quart of 5% sodium hydrochloride (Clorox for example) for one quart of water in the formula above. Where your shutter is extremely dirty, it is recommended that you start washing from the top and work down to the bottom. Apply cleaning solution and let stand several minutes
