Atlantis Rail Systems - Railing System Care Kit (E0100-K000)
Powder coated products and stainless steel cannot be regarded as completely maintenance free. Low maintenance depends largely on the proper cleaning immediately after installation and the proximity to saltwater.
The Atlantis Rail systems frameworks are made from either high quality, powder coated aluminum or stainless steel. Cable infill components are made of marine grade 316L stainless steel.
Both materials hold up very well in harsh environments such as, oceanfront, poolside and commercial environments given the appropriate amount of care.
Maintaining Your Railing System
Depending on the specific location and environmental conditions, maintenance may be as infrequent as once or twice a year, or as frequent as every few months.
Locations in close proximity to saltwater and pools will require the most attention and maintenance.
Incidental saltwater and/or chlorine exposure will cause corrosion to any metal including aluminum and 316L stainless steel, if not reasonably maintained.
Cleaning
It is extremely important not to walk away from the installation until you thoroughly clean your new railing! Initial cleaning is necessary to remove all foreign matter from the powder coated and stainless steel surfaces including oil from tools and hands.
Cleaning should only be done with a mild car wash soap. Beyond the initial cleaning, you should simply clean your railing system when it looks dirty.
This will prevent dirt and dust particles containing Iron from adversely affecting the components and ensure the long-term integrity of your railing system.
Polish
If your railing system is continually exposed to harsh environmental conditions, you may observe "environmental buildup" where rails attach to posts and cable fittings attach to cable and/or posts.
The typical color of environmental buildup ranges from light brown to a reddish tint due to a combination of salt and Iron. If buildup remains after cleaning with soap and water, these trouble areas will need to be spot cleaned using metal polish.
Protect
Atlantis Rail recommends the use of Lanox MX4 for an added layer of defense.
This product is specially designed with anti-corrosion LANOLIN for long-term heavy-duty protection for residential / commercial use and where extreme environmental conditions prevail.
