Protective Film On Fence Post

Protecting Fence Posts from Concrete Splatter

One of the easiest ways to ruin the clean look of a fence installation is through concrete splatter or dust settling on your posts while setting them in place. When wet concrete cures on the surface, it can bond to the finish, creating white stains or rough patches that are difficult to remove without damaging the coating. Aesthetically, it’s a nightmare — and practically, it can mean extra time, cost, and frustration on the job site.

How Greenwood Fence Prevents Concrete Damage

At Greenwood Fence, we understand that even the smallest installation detail can make a big difference. That’s why all Greenwood Fence posts and rails are protected with a removable plastic film on all sides. This simple but effective feature shields the aluminum surfaces from dust, debris, and concrete splatter during installation.

Once the concrete has fully cured, installers can easily peel away the protective film to reveal a clean, undamaged, and professional finish. No sanding, no chemical cleaners, and no risk of marring the surface coating.

Why This Matters

  • Professional Finish: No residue or rough patches left behind after setting posts.
  • Time-Saving: No need for chemical cleaning or scrubbing concrete buildup.
  • Cost-Effective: Reduces the chance of damage and rework, keeping projects on budget.
  • Installer Friendly: Just peel and reveal — it’s that simple.

This thoughtful detail is just one of many ways Greenwood Fence makes installation faster, cleaner, and more reliable for professionals and DIY installers alike.
