Exterior Metal Cleaning — A1 Orange removes dirt, debris, and pollution from Alucobond Panels and anodized aluminum window frames on buildings, store fronts, canopies, monument signs and brand signs.
Stain Removal/Restoration of Alucobond Panels — A1 Orange’s experienced Alucobond Panel cleaning and restoration experts use high quality products to repair chalked, faded, sprinkler-stained or even chemically damaged panels instead of costly replacement. This damage can’t be removed by standard cleaning procedures and must be restored by professionals with the right products or you risk damaging the surface further.
Each project is unique, and we work with the manufacturer to select the best product and process to reveal the original, intended finish for your project. After restoration, A1 Orange can apply a long-lasting, invisible surface layer which protects the finish better than the original Alucobond Panel finish.
Anodized Aluminum Window Frames Restoration — A1 Orange can also return faded, stained, oxidized, dull and/or pitted surfaces to their original condition.

No, washing either the glass or the metal will cause dripping on the other surface and make it dirty. They must be cleaned at the same time.
Exterior metal on your building should receive regular maintenance/cleaning on the same schedule as your glass and windows — more frequently on the first floor, and semi-annually or annually for areas less exposed to staining elements. This can help keep your windows clean longer, and prevent rust stains from the metal on your glass.
