Maintenance Tips

Initial Staging

Place new Corten sheets on non-porous surfaces (e.g., concrete) for the first 3–6 months to avoid rust stains on stone or wood.

Rinse gently with water to remove loose rust particles during patina development.

Long-Term Care

Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasives, which can damage the patina.

In freezing climates, clear debris from sheet metal crevices to prevent water expansion and cracking.

For indoor use, dust regularly with a soft cloth; no need for moisture protection.
