Signs of Metal

Care & cleaning

A little gentle care goes a long way. Most of our powder-coated finishes like soft cloths and mild soap — nothing harsh.

Do this

Keep it simple

Dust with a soft, dry cloth.
If needed, wash with mild soap and water, then dry it well.
On outdoor signs, check the mounting screws a couple of times a year.

Skip this

Protect the finish

Abrasive pads, steel wool, or strong solvents.
Pressure washers up close on fine lettering.
Harsh chemicals that can dull or etch the powder coat.

Outdoors

Weather-ready, still worth a check

Powder coat stands up to sun and rain on porches and outdoor walls. A quick look at mounts and a soft wipe after dusty seasons keeps edges and letterforms looking sharp.

Product pages

Finish tips first

If a product page lists finish-specific care, follow those notes first. Designs can vary by size and coat.
