Cleaning AcrylicCONGRATULATIONS ON THE PURCHASE OF YOUR NEW ACRYLIC LINER! The following cleaning instructions have been compiled for proper hassle-free maintenance. General cleaning instructions: For normal everyday cleaning, Luxury suggests the use of a mild soap and water, with a soft wash cloth. Use of scouring pads or abrasive cleansers will dull the surface. Should you wish to use a product not listed below, test on a small area in the corner of the skirt before applying to the entire bathtub liner. Always review individual cleansers’ instructions. Always rinse thoroughly after cleaning. Recommended cleaner: “Dawn” dish soap & water, Formula 409, & X-IT. Vinegar and water may also be used to soften water minerals. If you require a disinfectant, you may use Clorox Bleach diluted with water to sanitize the enclosure. Do not use*: Original Clean Shower, Clean Shower for Plastic Showers and Glass, Soft Scrub, Dow disinfectant cleaner, Lysol disinfectant cleaner, acetone, Lestoil, ammonia, fingernail polish remover, aerosol cleaners, or scouring pads. *use of the chemicals will cause a dull surface and/or an easily recognizable chemical crack. This will void your product warranty. There is no need to use abrasive cleaners. Abrasive cleaners dull the gloss over a period of years. In extreme cases where the recommended cleaners do not work, use a Chore Boy or 3M Sponge pad. Make sure you only use the ones recommended for Teflon Surfaces. Drain cleaner: Caution: liquid drain cleaners are recommended over powders and/or crystal; however, when using liquid drain cleaning agents, bail the standing water out of the bathtub and remove the drain plug. Use a funnel to prevent spills and apply the chemicals directly down the drain. Always make certain that chemicals do not come in contact with the acrylic surface. Use drain cleaners sparingly, so that they do not boil out and attack the acrylic surface. Removing light scratches, abrasions, etc.: Should you accidentally use an abrasive cleaner or incur a minor scratch in your new acrylic bathtub liner, it may be restored to its original glossy finish. You can do this by using “mirror glaze professional formula #17” or a liquid acrylic car wax. Should you wish to use any other polishing waxes or compounds, please test in a corner area of the skirt that is not highly visible. Please note: when using a wax to clean and restore a liner that has been poorly maintained, wax will generally leave a slick surface. While this is very beneficial and recommended for wall systems, it is not recommended on the slip resistant bottom. Mirror glaze is generally available at local automotive stores. |
