GAUGE AND SWITCH PANELS
No special care is required. Wipe off gauge and
switch panels with a soft, fresh water damp cloth to
remove dust or salt. Dry with chamois or soft cloth.
Use of protective chemicals is not required.
ACRYLIC PLASTIC SHEETING
(PLASTIC GLASS)
Never use a dry cloth or duster or glass cleaning
solutions on acrylic. Grease and oil may be removed
from acrylic with kerosene, hexane, white (not avia-
tion or ethyl) gasoline or aliphatic naphtha (no aro-
matic content).
Do not use solvents such as acetone, silicone spray,
benzine, carbon tetrachloride, fire extinguisher fluid,
dry cleaning fluid or lacquer thinner on acrylic, since
they attack the surface.
To clean acrylic, wash off as much dirt with water as
possible. With your hands and plenty of water, feel
and dislodge any caked dirt or mud. A soft, grit-free
cloth may then be used with a nonabrasive soap or
detergent. A soft sponge, kept clean for this purpose,
is excellent. Blot dry with a clean, damp chamois.
Repair minor scratches with automotive rubbing
compound or polishing wax. Follow the manufactur-
er’s instructions. Although the scratches may not
disappear completely, they should not be as notice-
able. Apply rubbing compound or polishing wax to a
damp, soft cloth. Rub the gelcoat surface with the
damp, soft cloth in a circular motion.
LIGNAPAL ® CABINETS
To care for the galley cabinet surfaces, please follow
the cleaning recommendations listed below.
The following NOTICE label is placed on the fiber-
glass area of the galley countertop.
Clean cabinet surfaces often with a soft cloth or
sponge and mild soap and water. A non-ammoniat-
ed spray may also be used. (Examples: Glass
Cleaner-Vinegar Glass Works by Miles, Inc.)
Never use paper towels, abrasive pads or abra-
sive cleaners.
Hairline scratches and minor abrasions can be
removed or minimized using mild automobile polish.
These care instructions refer specifically to the
Lignapal Cabinet surfaces. Ask your dealer about
cleaning any hardware or trim that has been incor-
porated in your cabinetry.
CANVAS AND CLEAR VINYL
The canvas, or weather coverings, are 100% acrylic
yarn. Besides its resistance to mildew, rot, and
weather, canvas also resists industrial pollutants
and the effects of ultraviolet light from the sun.
All canvas should be rolled or folded when dry and
stored in a clean, dry space. For clear vinyl pieces,
the recommended methods for storage are rolling or
laying down flat. The clear vinyl should never be
folded or creased as cracking will result. To protect
the clear vinyl from rubbing against itself while rolled
or stored flat, place a piece of very soft, non abra-
sive cloth between the pieces.
