When cleaning Stonewood Architectural Panels, use a progressive approach starting with the gentlest cleaning method. It is best to use the least amount of cleaning agents and no scrubbing to remove the debris in order to keep the panel looking beautiful.

Benchmark Recommendation: It is highly recommended to always test clean a small part of the affected area, and once the effectiveness of the procedure has been verified, proceed with the rest of the surface.

Cleaning Progression:

• Step 1: Clean the surface just with pure hot water and use a clean soft cloth (not dyed). Always use a wet or damp cloth, do not rub the panels when dry.
• Step 2: Washing the surface with dishwashing detergent and plenty of lukewarm water. Use a clean, soft cloth, applying light pressure. Rinse with clean water. Never use cloths or sponges with abrasive cleaning surfaces or additives as they will damage the surface of the panels.
• Step 3: Grease, oil or tar may be removed with a good grade of hexane, aliphatic naphtha or kerosene. These solvents may be obtained at a paint or hardware store and should be used in accordance with manufacturer’s recommendations. Any oily film left behind by solvents should be removed immediately by washing.

DO NOT USE: Window cleaning sprays, kitchen scouring compounds, or solvents such as acetone, Ethyl Acetate, MEK, nail polish remover, gasoline, benzene, carbon tetrachloride or lacquer thinner. They cleaning agents will cause permanent damage to the surface of the panel.

Repair: There is no approved method to repair the panels. If damaged, they must be replaced.

STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS

• Keep panels dry and stored indoors in original packaging until installation.
• Store Stonewood panels on a smooth, dry, flat surface, making sure there are no bends or bowing in the load.
• Do not store directly on cold concrete floors as moisture may migrate.
• Do not store under heating units or air conditioning units.
• Keep load stored within outer wrap until use. Remove pallet straps once load is moved to storage area.
• Reseal plastic wrap if partial load is used.
• Keep foam dividers in place. Damage resulting from improper storage will void the warranty.

HANDLING AND SAWING INSTRUCTIONS

Please take care not to scratch the surface of the panel during handling, machining and installation. The UV protective surface can be scratched if care is not taken when handing and/or machining the panels. The panels are shipped with protective foam dividers between each panel. This foam barrier should always be used when stacking panels. Panels should be cut using a track saw on a guild rail with a blade designed for cutting aluminum / plastic. Fiberesin recommends the Festool TS 55 REQ Plunge Cut Track Saw and Festool 496307 Aluminum/Plastic saw blade for reference.

SINGLE-SIDED PANELS

There is one A side and one B side to the panels. The A side is meant to face away from the building. Both sides may have the same color/pattern. This does not mean the panel has two sides of equal appearance quality. The B side could have finish or gloss imperfections. Installers are responsible for making sure that the appropriate side is visible. The panels are shipped A side up and there is an identifying sticker on the B side.

Note: The construction buildup of the two sides of the panel is identical. This provides uniform balance and weather/UV protection.
