Here is the secret to keeping that "mirror-like" shine for decades.

Context & Overview

You have successfully installed Jinbao UV Wall Panels, and your space looks luxurious. The high-gloss finish mimics natural marble perfectly. But how do you ensure it stays that way?

Unlike real stone, which requires expensive sealing and polishing, UV panels are remarkably low maintenance. However, "low maintenance" doesn't mean "no maintenance." Using the wrong cleaning tools can dull the surface. In this guide, we share the professional Do's and Don'ts to extend the lifespan of your walls.

Daily Cleaning: The "Soft & Neutral" Rule

The UV coating on the surface is hard, but it is not indestructible. The goal of daily cleaning is to remove dust without creating micro-scratches.

1. The Right Tools

  • ✅ DO Use: A soft microfiber cloth or a soft cotton towel.

  • ❌ DON'T Use: Steel wool, abrasive scouring pads (green pads), or hard brushes. These will leave swirl marks on the glossy surface.

2. The Right Cleaners

  • ✅ DO Use: Warm water mixed with a mild, neutral detergent (like dish soap).

  • ❌ DON'T Use: Strong acidic or alkaline cleaners (like bleach or ammonia). While UV panels are chemically resistant, harsh chemicals can degrade the gloss level over time.

The Technique

Simply wipe the surface gently with a damp cloth to remove dust and fingerprints. Follow up with a dry cloth to prevent water spots.

Long-Term Maintenance & Protection

To ensure your UV Wall Panels last for 20+ years, pay attention to the environment.

1. Avoid Direct Sunlight (UV Exposure)

Although the panels are "UV Cured," the PVC base material can age if exposed to intense, direct sunlight for years (e.g., a sunroom wall).

  • Tip: Use curtains or blinds during peak sun hours if the panels are installed near large south-facing windows.

2. Regular Joint Inspection

Every year, check the seams or metal trims.

  • What to look for: If you used silicone sealant, check if it has shrunk or peeled. Re-caulking prevents moisture from getting behind the panels.

Troubleshooting: Fixing Scratches & Stains

Accidents happen. Here is how to fix common issues without replacing the whole panel.

Problem 1: Minor Scratches

If the surface has lost its shine or has hairline scratches:

  • Solution: Use a clear car wax or furniture polish. Apply a small amount and buff it in circular motions. The wax fills the micro-scratches and restores the glossy reflection.

Problem 2: Stubborn Stains (Ink/Marker)

  • Solution: For oil-based stains or marker pen marks, use a small amount of isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) on a cloth. Wipe quickly and rinse with water. Do not let the alcohol sit on the surface for too long.

Problem 3: Deep Gouges

  • Solution: If a sharp object has gouged the panel deep enough to damage the pattern, repair is difficult. In this case, the modular nature of UV panels is a benefit—you can carefully remove and replace just that single sheet.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Can I use bleach to clean UV wall panels?

A: We do not recommend it. While the UV layer is chemically resistant, frequent use of bleach can dull the glossy finish. Warm soapy water is usually sufficient for sanitizing.

Q2: How do I remove glue residue left during installation?

A: If structural adhesive or silicone gets on the front of the panel, wait for it to cure slightly, then peel it off. For stubborn residue, use a cloth dampened with mineral spirits or alcohol, then wipe clean immediately.

Q3: Will the panels turn yellow over time?

A: High-quality UV panels (like Jinbao's) use UV-stabilized coatings that resist yellowing indoors. However, cheap panels often yellow within a year. Always choose a reputable supplier.

Q4: Can I paint over UV wall panels?

A: It is not recommended. The surface is designed to be non-stick and glossy, so paint will not adhere well. If you want to change the look, it is better to install new panels over the old ones.
