Exterior aluminium windows greatly reduce the amount of maintenance that your windows will require. However, they still require maintenance a few times a year. Here’s what you need to know to care for your exterior aluminium windows.
The exterior aluminium windows will need to be washed a few times a year. Start by cleaning the tracks of your windows. To clean the tracks of your windows, combine one part baking soda, one part vinegar, and four parts water in a clean spray bottle. Spray this in the tracks of your windows. You can then move to cleaning the frame.
You can wash the aluminium with a soapy water and a soft cloth. Give them a good rinse, and then use a dry cloth to dry them. For dirtier windows, you can mix a paste of lemon juice and baking soda. Let this sit for several minutes, and then rinse the windows with a damp rag. Dry them with a dry cloth after you rinse them.
After you’ve removed all of the dirt from your windows, you will need to inspect them for scratches or other damage. If there are small scratches on your aluminium, you can buff them out with a polishing compound designed for use on aluminium.
Aluminum is three times stronger than vinyl, making it a great choice for your windows. Aluminum is very durable, and it is resistant to scratches, dents and breaking. This allows the windows to last a very long time with very little maintenance.
