Jolong Products Care & Maintenance Guide

To enjoy the maximum life cycle of our aluminium doors and windows products, please follow these instructions below:

Initial cleaning

• Professional cleaners are recommended to conduct the initial cleaning of the aluminium products.
• Take care not to scratch any glass surfaces while cleaning as this will result in permanent damage.
• Remove any stickers by soaking them before attempting to remove them. Do not scrub.

General maintenance

• Keep all aluminium parts dry as far as possible.
• When cleaning use non-abrasive cleaners or mild soapy water on frames.
• Use a mild soapy water or window-cleaning solution, and a soft sponge or cloth to clean glass surfaces.
• Dry with a soft cloth to ensure that all water is removed from glass, frames, hinges, sealant etc. to avoid damage.
• Hardware components should be lubricated with a silicon spray with a straw applicator.
• Never use any chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners on your aluminium frames.
• Never use a steel brush or any scrubbing or abrasive pads when cleaning your aluminium frames.
• Do not use a high-pressure cleaner or high-pressure spray nozzle.
