Paul,
As others have stated, screen burn is simply the oxidation from aluminum
screens that has transferred onto the glass. Since it will not come off
with standard window cleaning methods, there must be some extra charge for
removal.
I have decided to not use harsh chemicals in my business. I prefer to
not expose my employees or the environment to potentially damaging
chemicals. This is just a personal decision on my part.
We will scrub the screen burn with 0000 steel wool, for an additional
charge. The steel wool will take off most, but not all, of the screen
burn.
I explain this to my customers, and explain that if they want the window
brought back to its original condition, it will take some kind of acid to do it,
but I don't offer this service. So far, they have all been very happy with
this removal method, and the windows look so much better than the cloudy white
when we started that the customers love the improvement.
