All-Purpose Cleaner (Spa
finish cleaning)
Cal Spas™ All-Purpose Cleaner is an
essential part of maintaining your
spa’s finish. Through normal use,
the spa’s finish can accumulate dirt,
oil, and calcium causing a rough feel
and unsightly scum lines. Cal Spas™
All-Purpose Cleaner is a low detergent, non-abrasive
cleaner specifically formulated to clean the spa without
damaging its acrylic finish.
The most effective solution to minimize cleaning time
is prevention. When the following steps are followed,
the spa’s finish will actually start to resist most of the
elements that cause calcium build-up and make scum
line clean up easier.
Prior to Spa Start-Up and Refilling
Spray Cal Spas™ Multi-Purpose Cleaner directly
1.
on to the spa’s finish.
Wipe clean with a clean soft cloth.
2.
Repeat on heavily calcified areas.

often with a bucket of clean water.

entire finish with a soft towel or sponge.
Allow Fast Sheen to dry until white and powdery.

Cleaning the Cover, Shell and
Pillows
Due to the constant punishment your spa cover and
pillows receive, you should protect them by applying
Vinyl and Leather Cleaner as part of your monthly
maintenance plan. Cal Spas™ Vinyl and Leather
Cleaner is specifically designed to protect spa covers
and pillows from chemical and ultraviolet light damage.
It accomplishes this without leaving an oily residue
behind that is normally associated with common
automotive vinyl protectants.
Use of Vinyl and Leather Cleaner
Cal Spas™ Vinyl and Leather Cleaner should be used
sparingly. Incorrect usage may cause water clarity
issues.
