Title: metal frame windows
Post by: Wickerman on January 13, 2010, 11:06:39 am

I have been asked to clean a third floor flat with upvc window frames, the windows below are old metal frames. Will pure water affect the metal frames?

Think about the weather those metal frames are in - rain, snow, wind, sun. Why would a bit of water once a month cause any damage?

You might get moaned at by the people below because you've dripped water on them and caused marks on the glass and frame, but that's all.

If they are ali frames they will not rust.
