Care and Maintenance
To keep your AZEK Porch looking its best:
• It is recommended that you wash your porch periodically with ordinary household products to
remove stains, dirt and debris.
• To remove rust stains, use a household cleaner such as Krud Kutter “the must for rust”.
• Avoid the use of rubber-backed mats, tarps, pool toys, and other non-porous items on the porch for
an extended period of time as these items may cause discoloration to the porch surface.
• Some products, such as sunblock and insect repellent, contain chemicals that may alter the surface
of AZEK Porch. Check product labels and consult with the manufacturer as to product compatibility
with plastic materials, such as AZEK Porch, prior to use on or near AZEK Porch.
• Do not get any PVC glue or similar product on the surface of an AZEK Porch as it may discolor and
permanently damage the AZEK Porch surface.
For ice removal:
• Most products containing calcium chloride can be used without damage to the porch surface. These
products may leave a white residue which can be cleaned using the cleaning guidelines above.
• Metal shovels may damage the surface of AZEK Porch and are not recommended for clearing snow
from the porch surface.
