漫步濟南街頭，鐵藝護欄本是裝點城市的風景線，卻常因風吹日曬、雨水侵蝕變得褪色斑駁，不僅影響美觀，還可能加速金屬銹蝕。想要讓鐵藝護欄重拾 “顏值”，從預防到修復都有門道，掌握這些方法，便能讓老舊護欄重煥生機。

　　Strolling through the streets of Jinan, wrought iron guardrails were originally meant to adorn the city's scenery, but they often fade and become mottled due to wind, sun, and rain erosion. This not only affects their appearance but may also accelerate metal corrosion. To restore the appearance of wrought iron guardrails, there are ways to prevent and repair them. By mastering these methods, old guardrails can be revitalized.

　　一、探究褪色根源：對癥下藥找方案

　　1、 Exploring the root cause of fading: finding targeted solutions

　　濟南四季分明的氣候是鐵藝護欄褪色的 “主因”。夏季高溫暴曬，紫外線會破壞護欄表面涂層的分子結構，導致顏料分解、涂層粉化；秋冬季節干燥多風，沙塵不斷摩擦涂層，加速磨損；而雨季頻繁，雨水夾雜空氣中的污染物附著在護欄表面，若排水不暢形成積水，涂層易被腐蝕剝落。此外，部分護欄安裝時涂層噴涂不均勻、厚度不足，或是使用了質量不佳的涂料，從源頭就埋下了褪色隱患。只有了解褪色原因，才能針對性解決問題。

　　The distinct climate of four seasons in Jinan is the main reason for the fading of wrought iron guardrails. Exposure to high temperatures in summer and ultraviolet radiation can damage the molecular structure of the coating on the guardrail surface, leading to pigment decomposition and coating powdering; In autumn and winter, it is dry and windy, and sand and dust constantly rub against the coating, accelerating wear and tear; The rainy season is frequent, and rainwater mixed with pollutants in the air adheres to the surface of the guardrail. If the drainage is not smooth, it forms water accumulation, and the coating is easily corroded and peeled off. In addition, some guardrails have uneven coating and insufficient thickness during installation, or have used low-quality coatings, which have hidden fading hazards from the source. Only by understanding the cause of fading can we solve the problem in a targeted manner.

　　二、日常保養：給護欄穿上 “防護衣”

　　2、 Daily maintenance: Wear "protective clothing" on the guardrail

　　日常維護是延緩褪色的關鍵。每周可用軟布或掃帚清除護欄表面的灰塵、落葉，避免沙塵顆粒劃傷涂層；遇到污漬時，用溫和的中性清潔劑稀釋后擦拭，切忌使用鋼絲球、強酸強堿清潔劑，防止損傷表面。濟南雨季過后，要及時檢查護欄底部是否積水，若有需疏通排水，避免長期浸泡。此外，可每隔 3 - 6 個月為護欄噴涂一次防護蠟或專用保護劑，在表面形成透明保護膜，隔絕紫外線和水汽，就像給護欄涂了一層 “防曬霜”。

　　Daily maintenance is the key to delaying fading. Clean the dust and fallen leaves on the surface of the guardrail with a soft cloth or broom every week to avoid scratching the coating with sand particles; When encountering stains, dilute them with a mild neutral cleaner and wipe them off. Avoid using steel wire balls or strong acid or alkali cleaners to prevent damage to the surface. After the rainy season in Jinan, it is necessary to promptly check whether there is water accumulation at the bottom of the guardrail. If there is, it is necessary to clear the drainage to avoid long-term soaking. In addition, protective wax or specialized protective agent can be sprayed on the guardrail every 3-6 months to form a transparent protective film on the surface, isolating ultraviolet rays and moisture, just like applying a layer of "sunscreen" to the guardrail.

　　三、局部修復：小面積褪色輕松補救

　　3、 Partial repair: easy remedy for small fading areas

　　若護欄僅出現局部褪色、掉漆，可自行進行修補。首先，用砂紙輕輕打磨褪色區域，去除松動的涂層和銹跡，使表面平整粗糙，增強新涂層附著力；若發現輕微銹蝕，需用除銹劑徹底清理，待干燥后再進行下一步。選擇與原護欄顏色、材質匹配的自噴漆或防銹漆，噴涂前搖勻漆罐，距離護欄表面 15 - 20 厘米，以 “十字交叉法” 均勻噴涂，每次薄噴多層，每層間隔 5 - 10 分鐘，避免流墜。噴涂完成后，等待 24 小時自然干燥，修復區域就能與整體外觀基本一致。

　　If the guardrail only shows partial fading or paint peeling, it can be repaired by oneself. Firstly, gently sand the faded area with sandpaper to remove loose coatings and rust, making the surface smooth and rough, and enhancing the adhesion of the new coating; If slight rust is found, it needs to be thoroughly cleaned with rust remover and allowed to dry before proceeding to the next step. Choose self spray paint or anti rust paint that matches the color and material of the original guardrail. Shake the paint can evenly before spraying, 15-20 centimeters away from the guardrail surface, and spray evenly using the "cross cross method". Spray multiple thin layers each time, with an interval of 5-10 minutes between each layer, to avoid sagging. After the spraying is completed, wait for 24 hours for natural drying, and the repaired area will be basically consistent with the overall appearance.

　　四、全面翻新：舊貌換新顏的專業操作

　　4、 Comprehensive Renovation: Professional Operation for Changing Old Appearance to New Look

　　當護欄大面積褪色、銹蝕嚴重時，需進行全面翻新。第一步是徹底脫漆，可使用脫漆劑涂抹在表面，待涂層軟化后用鏟刀清除，或用噴砂設備快速去除舊涂層和銹跡。脫漆完成后，檢查護欄結構是否穩固，對變形、斷裂的部位進行校正或焊接修復。接下來進行防銹處理，噴涂環氧富鋅底漆，形成致密防銹層；底漆干燥后，再噴涂中間漆增加涂層厚度和強度；最后噴涂聚氨酯面漆，提升耐候性和美觀度。整個翻新過程需嚴格控制每道工序的干燥時間和環境濕度，確保涂層牢固持久。

　　When the guardrail fades or rusts severely on a large scale, a comprehensive renovation is required. The first step is to completely remove the paint. A paint remover can be applied to the surface, and after the coating softens, it can be removed with a shovel or quickly removed with sandblasting equipment to remove old coatings and rust. After the paint stripping is completed, check whether the guardrail structure is stable, and correct or weld repair the deformed or broken parts. Next, anti rust treatment is carried out by spraying epoxy zinc rich primer to form a dense anti rust layer; After the primer dries, spray intermediate paint to increase the coating thickness and strength; Finally, spray polyurethane topcoat to enhance weather resistance and aesthetics. The entire renovation process requires strict control over the drying time and environmental humidity of each process to ensure that the coating is firm and long-lasting.

　　五、升級防護：從源頭杜絕褪色隱患

　　5、 Upgrade protection: eliminate fading hazards from the source

　　預防勝于補救，在安裝或翻新鐵藝護欄時，選擇優質材料和工藝能大幅降低褪色風險。優先挑選經過熱鍍鋅處理的鋼材，鋅層可有效隔絕空氣和水分，增強防銹能力；涂料方面，選擇耐候性強的戶外專用漆，如氟碳漆，其抗紫外線、抗老化性能出色，使用壽命可達 10 年以上。此外，合理設計護欄結構，避免積水死角，安裝排水孔或傾斜坡面，減少雨水殘留，也能延長涂層壽命。

　　Prevention is better than cure. When installing or renovating wrought iron guardrails, choosing high-quality materials and techniques can significantly reduce the risk of fading. Priority should be given to selecting steel that has undergone hot-dip galvanizing treatment. The zinc layer can effectively isolate air and moisture, enhancing rust prevention ability; In terms of coating, outdoor special paint with strong weather resistance is selected, such as fluorocarbon paint, which has excellent UV resistance and anti-aging performance, and its service life can reach more than 10 years. In addition, designing the guardrail structure reasonably, avoiding dead corners of water accumulation, installing drainage holes or inclined slopes, reducing rainwater residue, can also extend the coating life.
