On vertical surfaces, spray with a wax on a weekly basis. Do not rub or buff. PVD or Physical Vapor Deposition is a process of coating a surface with a durable coating that is very strong and resist chemicals and abrasion. While very durable, do not use abrasive, ammonia, bleach or alcohol for cleaning.

OUTSIDE USE

ROHL products may be used outside. However, when installed outside, the warranty is no longer offered. Finishes with PVD will wear well in most conditions, but UV sunlight, rain, snow, and freezing weather can compromise the finish. If possible, avoid direct sunlight. If in freezing temperatures, winterize fixtures by removing cartridges, drain all water or store fixture indoors. Pat dry after use to avoid hard water spots. A spray wax on vertical surfaces is recommended. If minerals or salt are accumulating on the fixture, clean by applying a 50/50 solution of water and white vinegar, then pat dry. Do not soak the fixture in vinegar solution or allow the vinegar solution to soak on the finish. Spray weekly with fresh water, wipe dry and apply Flitz Wax to avoid hard water spotting. Important: Do not use products that are corrosive like abrasives, ammonia, bleach or alcohol.
