FINISH CARE FOR WESLOCK PRODUCTS

Suggested Cleaning Procedures (For Exterior and Interior)

  • These are suggested procedures and will provide you with the best results for maintaining your hardware for many years. Particular care should be taken to avoid paint residue, paint thinners and all cleaning agents and solvents, as they will facilitate the erosion of your protective coatings and subject the finish to oxidization and discoloration, voiding any and all warranties** available to the original residential user of Weslock products.
