When protective covering is removed, clean exposed metal surfaces to comply with
manufacturer's written instructions.
B.
Protect the installation from damage by work of other Sections. Where necessary due
to heavy construction traffic, remove and properly store cover plates or seals and
install temporary protection over joints. Reinstall cover plates or seals prior to
Substantial Completion of the Work.
