CARE and MAINTENANCE
Alcoa Soffit is one of the most durable building products materials available for residential applications. In most cases, normal rainfall keeps it sufficiently clean. If, however, it should need to be cleaned, Alcoa recommends the following procedures. Particular attention should be given to areas under eaves, porches, awnings and other overhangs that have limited exposure to the natural washing effect of rainfall.

  • Moderate atmospheric dirt
    Wash occasionally with clear water using a garden hose and soft-bristled brush (a long-handled, car-washing brush is ideal).
  • Heavy industrial atmospheric dirt
    Wash occasionally with a solution of 1/3 cup detergent (Tide®, for example), 2/3 cup trisodium phosphate (Soilax®, for example) and 1 gallon of water using a soft-bristled brush (a long-handled, car-washing brush is ideal).
  • Mildew accumulation
    Wash with a solution of 1/3 cup detergent (Tide®, for example), 2/3 cup trisodium phosphate (Soilax®, for example), 1 quart sodium hypochlorite 5% solution (Clorox®, for example) and 3 quarts water using a soft-bristled brush (a long-handled, car-washing brush is ideal).
  • Caulking compounds, tar and similar substances
    Apply reasonable amounts of mineral spirits directly to foreign substance and rinse area thoroughly with water.

CAUTION: Do not exceed the recommended concentrations of cleaners. To do so can cause damage to the product’s surface. Avoid skin and eye contact with the solutions, and in all cases follow manufacturers’ instructions for the use of cleaning compounds and solutions. Avoid use of abrasive-type cleaners and strong solvents. Test any cleaner on an inconspicuous area before applying to major areas. To minimize streaking, always clean from the bottom to the top and then rinse with clear water. Excessive scrubbing is unnecessary and can be harmful to the product, resulting in undesirable gloss on the finish.
