How to Clean and Maintain Your Clear Polycarbonate Security Barriers

In an ever-changing world where security is of paramount importance, ViewProtect offers cutting-edge clear polycarbonate security barriers that not only provide protection but also maintain the aesthetic appeal of your property. To ensure your investment stays in top condition, proper care and maintenance are essential. In this blog, we’ll guide you on how to clean and take care of your clear polycarbonate security barriers effectively.

 

1. Protect During Construction or Renovation:

Before you even begin the cleaning process, it’s crucial to prevent any damage to your clear polycarbonate security barriers during construction or renovation. To do this, make sure to keep the protective film on the bars while the project is still ongoing. We recommend installing the polycarbonate bars at the end of the construction or renovation project whenever possible. This precaution will help prevent unnecessary exposure to potential hazards such as chemicals, paint, cement, or harsh detergents.

 

2. Avoid Harmful Chemicals:

Clear polycarbonate security barriers are durable, but they are not immune to the corrosive effects of certain chemicals. To ensure the longevity of your barriers, keep all chemicals, paint, cement, harsh detergents, and aerosol sprays away from them. These substances can cause discoloration, clouding, or even structural damage to the polycarbonate.

 

3. Use the Right Cleaning Materials:

Cleaning your clear polycarbonate security barriers is a straightforward process when you have the right tools. Start by using a damp fibre cloth to wipe down the surface gently. Avoid using abrasive materials, as they can scratch the polycarbonate. Once you’ve wiped away any dirt or smudges, dry the barriers with a clean and dry fibre cloth.

 

4. Choose the Right Cleaning Agent:

For the best results, it’s advisable to use the prescribed cleaning agent available from ViewProtect. This specially formulated cleaning solution is designed to effectively clean and maintain the clarity of your polycarbonate barriers without causing any harm. However, if you don’t have access to this product, a few drops of mild dishwashing liquid in clean water can be a suitable alternative. This mixture not only cleans the barriers but also helps eliminate static electricity, which can attract dust and shavings.

 

5. Regular Maintenance:

To keep your clear polycarbonate security barriers looking their best and functioning optimally, it’s essential to incorporate regular maintenance into your routine. A periodic check for scratches or damage can help you address issues before they worsen. If you notice any damage beyond minor scuffs, be sure to contact ViewProtect for professional assistance.

 

In conclusion, proper care and maintenance of your clear polycarbonate security barriers are essential to ensure they continue to provide protection and maintain their visual appeal. By following these simple steps and using the recommended cleaning products, you can keep your barriers in top-notch condition for years to come.
