- Clean occasionally with mild soap and water to remove grime or debris.
- Inspect regularly to ensure the reflective sheeting is intact and clearly visible.
- Replace if damaged, bent, or visibility is compromised to remain compliant and safe.

Plus, aluminum’s lightweight nature helps lower transportation emissions, making this product a smart and eco-friendly investment for any public or private traffic project.
