Is your commercial building plagued by unsightly stains on its glass, metal, or stone surfaces? We’ll uncover the causes of these blemishes and introduce you to Presto’s cutting-edge solutions for not only removing them but also preventing their return.
Stains often appear where glass and metal meet stone. Rainwater, carrying eroded minerals from stone, leaves behind tough residues on glass and metal as it dries. These mineral deposits, especially silica, bond to the silica in glass and are baked in by the heat of the sun, creating stubborn stains.
Ironically, common cleaning methods add to the problem. Standard techniques using tap water and dish detergents leave behind mineral-rich soapy residues, which flow down onto other surfaces and bake into hard-to-remove stains. This residue not only attracts more dirt but also fosters biological growth like mold and mildew on porous stone.
Degradation of caulking and sealants also contributes, releasing oils that mar surface appearances. Additionally, general environmental dust and dirt necessitate regular cleaning to avoid potential staining.
Our restoration begins with the revolutionary Glass Resurfacer Final Polish, stripping away all residues and refinishing the surface. For tougher stains, our Glass Resurfacer Stripper pre-treats the surface, making restoration swift and effective.
Post-restoration, we apply our Glass Defender, a high-performance silicone coating that shields against environmental elements.
For metal, the Presto Metal Resurfacer or EnviRestore MSR that cleans without damage, followed by the Metal Protector Series protective treatments that enhance and protect.
Our Stone Restore series tackles different stone types and stains, followed by our Leach Stop, which prevents water penetration and mineral erosion.
To maintain these pristine conditions, use purified water for window cleaning, and if needed, Presto’s Scumfree Professional Window Claning Concentrate avoids the oily residues left by typical cleaning agents.
Lastly, when replacing caulking, select non-staining options to further reduce the risk of future stains.
