#700 NeroQom® Stainless Steel
Stainless steel offers a uniquely modern and sleek impact. Once seen, it leaves an impression which lasts. So, what does this architectural icon take to look after? It’s tougher than you’d think. When you see stainless steel in the showroom, it looks amazing. But, when installed at your superyacht or façade, it’s easily damaged through scratches, corrosion, the wrong type of polishing, cleaning or protection.
We’ve often seen others using abrasive pads, strong acids to clean and oil or silicone based protection which goes on the surface, not in. This will all result in compromised stainless steel. When working on this surface you must be aware of the finish and how the material was made. During cleaning, it’s important to retain the surface, not burn the protective layer off. Once that happens your stainless steel becomes vulnerable to corrosion. Professionals know that, as with many other materials, we need to care for the surface, not attack it. Long lasting protection needs to be in the material, not just laying on top. When professionals come, the surface is cleaned and can be upgraded with armour and protection for the future, check out our Disciplines to see how it’s done.
