Care & Use of the Aluminum Signs

The aluminum signs are durable and weatherproof, however, since these signs are usually outdoors, they can and will get dirty, regular (every few weeks or so) cleaning will prolong the life of your custom printed sign panels. Without regular cleaning dirt and grim can build up making it difficult to get off. 

Washing your signs

• Don't use any harsh chemicals because you can damage the print or lamination.
• Use a little soapy water, wiping your replacement panels gently with a soft cloth or towel.
