SEAM-LOC 24

®

Tin snips or a "nibbler" type electric tools are recommended for field cutting Seam-Loc 24 panels. Cutting the steel generates

slivers or metal chips. These slivers and metal chips must be immediately removed from the Seam-Loc 24 panels because they will

damage the finish and shorten the life of the product.

One method of preventing this problem is to flip the Seam-Loc 24 panels over when cutting. This allows the slivers and metal

chips to be brushed from the back side and avoids damaging the paint on the top side of the panels.

When cutting Seam-Loc 24 panels, goggles must be worn for eye protection.

CAUTION

All product surfaces should be free of debris at all times. Installed surfaces should be

wiped clean at the end of each work period. Never cut panels over metal surfaces.

Metal shavings will rust on the surface, voiding the warranty.

All painted panels and flashings have a factory applied baked on finish. Handling and installing panels may result in some small

scratches or nicks to the paint finish. Touch-up paint is available in matching colors from Metal Sales. It is recommended that a

small brush be used to apply touch-up paint to those areas that are in need of repair. Touch-up paint does not have the superior

chalk and fade resistance of the factory applied paint finish and will normally discolor at an accelerated rate. Aerosol paint should

not be used because of the overspray that may occur.
