Care for your Mailbox

If you don't want your mailbox to age gracefully wash it regularly, maybe when
washing the car, and remember; Stainless Steel needs loving care as well.

Use a specific stainless cleaner, these are generally available from your supermarket. We recommend and sell Marine Stainless 2in1 for protection against "tea staining" and in corrosive environments.

Lube your locks and hinges regularly.
