Cleaning and maintenance
Links
Cleaning must be done periodically with a soft cloth. If you use a neutral liquid cleaner, you must rinse
the prole with cold water and dry to remove excess moisture. If dirtiness persists, clean the prole
with a solution with clean water and detergent or neutral soap 5%, brushing with a cloth that has no
particles that could scracht the nish. Ensure the lacquered surface is totally cold (maximum 20ºC)
before the cleaning.
Steel wool, abrasive cleaners, souring products as well as strong acids (hydrochloric and
perchloric),strong bases (caustic soda or ammonia) or carbonated solutions are not recommended.
Citric acid is neither recommended because disolves the protective layer of the surface of aluminium.
Waxes, petrolatum, lanolin or similar substances are not appropriate. Solvents containing haloalkanes
(hydrouoroether and chlorinated solvents) and curing accelerators containing chlorides should not be
used (use special accelerators free of chlorides).
- Lacquering: Lacquering consists on the application of lacquer on the surface of the prole. It can be
applied as powder coating, electrically charged with opposite sign to the support, melting and poly-
merizing in furnace. The lacquered of the proles of Emac® is certied by the quality seal Qualicoat,
which guarantee the quality of the processes and the nal products. Emac® offers in its catalog a
wide range of laquered. with surprising colors such as choral nacre, life green, mineral white...
-Technology of microbial control: This nish belongs to the range of sanitary and health solutions
of Emac®. It is a specic covering which protects the prole against harmful microorganisms such
as fungi, molds, yeasts and bacteria. It’s ideal for installations with requirements of high control of
bacteria (hospitals, nursery, etc.) and for the home environment. It is available in antibacterial colors
white and metallized.

ALUMINIUM
- Natural: the natural nish is the common silver of aluminium. Natural aluminium, despite having a
protective natural layer on the surface, is chemichally more vulnerable than the rest of the nishes
offered in the Emac®’s catalogue, which improve notably its protection. This material can suffer from
color change in humid or outdoor environments. It has no additional protection against corrosion
and is more easily scratched. We recommend protecting natural aluminium by using varnishes or
specic paintings to improve its appearance and properties. It is not recommended to install natural
aluminium without additional protection in humid or saline environments.
