STAIR-NOSING PROFILES
Maintenance
Schluter
®
stair-nosing profiles require
no special maintenance or care and are
resistant to mold and fungi. Clean profiles
periodically using neutral cleaning agents.
Stainless steel surfaces exposed to the
environment or aggressive substances
should be cleaned periodically using a
mild household cleaner. Regular cleaning
maintains the neat appearance of stainless
steel and reduces the risk of corrosion. All
cleaning agents must be free of hydrochloric
acid, hydrofluoric acid, and chlorides.
Stainless steel surfaces develop a sheen
when treated with a chrome-polishing agent.
Oxidation films on aluminum may be
removed with a conventional polishing
agent, but will form again.
In the case of anodized aluminum, do
not use abrasive or strong alkaline cleaning
agents.
The treads of TREP-SE/-S/-B/-G/-GK can
be replaced in case of damage or wear.
TREP-EFK
1. TREP-EFK may be adhered to a recessed
area in the stair tread or on the surface of
the tread.
2. Clean the stair tread and repair damaged
areas if applicable.
3. Clean or degrease the underside of the
profile.
4. Adhere the profile by fully embedding
it into a suitable adhesive (e.g., epoxy
resin or KERDI-FIX, depending on the
substrate).
Note: The upper profile edge of TREP-EFK
is approximately 3/32" (2 mm) higher than
the stair covering if not installed within a
recessed area.
TREP-EK and TREP-GK
1. Clean the stair nosings and repair
damaged areas if applicable.
2. Clean or degrease the underside of
the profile.
3. Adhere the profile by fully embedding
it into a suitable adhesive (e.g., epoxy
resin or KERDI-FIX, depending on
the substrate).
Note: The upper profile edge of TREP-
EK is approximately 3/32" (2.5 mm) higher
than the stair covering, while the upper
profile edge of TREP-GK is approximately
1/16" (1.5 mm) higher than the stair covering.
