Care of Aluminum (Seventh Edition, November 2007) is a practical guide to finishing, cleaning and protecting aluminum products. Its contents cover aluminum finishes — non-finished, anodized, chemical conversion, painted, porcelain enameled, plated and laminated — followed by simple finish tests and a detailed chapter on cleaning aluminum, including common-sense cleaning rules and the selection of mild soaps and detergents, non-etching cleaners, solvent and emulsion cleaners, abrasive cleaners, etching cleaners and special cleaners. Separate chapters address the care and cleaning of architectural aluminum (pre-installation practice, on-site storage, installation care, protective coverings, insulation, care after installation), transportation equipment (automobiles, trucks, trailers and rail and rapid transit), and products in and around the home, including mobile homes and recreational vehicles. Pre-fabrication handling and storage, water staining, airborne contamination, oiling and interleaving are also covered, with easy-reference tables of cleaners and protective coatings.
