2111 West Grove Parkway – Commercial Metal Panel Restoration Project

Presto Restoration completed metal panel restoration at a two-story auto dealership at 2111 W Grove Pkwy, Pleasant Grove, UT 84062, south of Salt Lake City. The building dates to 2007, and by the time the owner planned a remodel, the aluminum composite material (ACM) panels had weathered badly. Our crew restored the existing metal in place — a faster, lower-cost alternative to full panel replacement.

Faded & Stained Metal Panels in Salt Lake City, UT

Metal and ACM panels on commercial buildings fade, stain, and discolor over time — and faded metal panels are a common sight across the Salt Lake City area. Along the Wasatch Front, the sun hits harder at 4,500 feet and breaks down the panel coating faster than at lower elevations. That damage leaves a chalky, dull film that washing alone will not remove. The bare aluminum underneath then starts to pit and corrode. On top of that, wide temperature swings between day and night wear the coating down even more. Over time, a metal facade that once looked uniform shows patchy fading, streaks, and uneven color across every panel.

Staining makes the problem worse. Hard-water spots build up from sprinklers and rain runoff. Mold and mildew grow on shaded walls. In winter, Salt Lake City’s trapped smog and road salt leave behind even more metal panel discoloration.

Cleaning aluminum composite panels removes the dirt on the surface but cannot fix fading, sun damage, or the dull film left by a worn-out coating. The owner of this building learned that firsthand after a local cleaning company’s work fell short. Presto’s aluminum panel restoration process goes well beyond cleaning — it’s full metal panel restoration. Our crew cleans each metal panel and buffs out the staining and oxidation to expose a fresh surface underneath. Then we seal every panel with a protective treatment built to stand up to the same sun, heat, and moisture that broke down the original.

First, our crew reached the two-story facade with a boom lift. Next, we cleaned each aluminum composite (ACM) panel on this Salt Lake City area building and buffed out the staining and oxidation to expose a fresh surface. That step decides the outcome — years of hard-water buildup, smog, and sun damage had dulled every panel, and standard cleaning could not reach the damage below the surface. The crew worked panel by panel until each one showed clean, renewed metal.

Then we applied a protective treatment across the full metal panel facade. That clear seal locks out future UV damage, moisture, and staining — so the building holds its restored look far longer than cleaning alone would allow.

The owner got a uniform, saturated facade back — the result that cleaning alone could not deliver. Restoring the metal panels also kept the original ACM material out of a landfill. The protective treatment also seals the surface with a fresh UV barrier. That shield stands up to Salt Lake City sun far better than the worn original finish. The remodel now reads as one project rather than a new interior behind an old exterior.
