9.6 - Cleaning Recommendations (Cont’d)
Anodized aluminum: Any highly acidic or alkaline cleaner will etch the aluminum over
time and damage it. Soap and water, or alcohol is acceptable.
Clear plastic: The clear plastic material is polycarbonate (known as Lexan). Cleaning
with alcohol or acetone will damage it and should never be used. Ammonia or any strong
cleaner will make it cloudy over time. It may be safely cleaned with soap and water.
Other plastic: All other manufactured plastic parts are made from acetal (known as
Delrin). It is resistant to damage from most cleaners. Routine cleaning can be done with
soap and water, or alcohol. White acetal will yellow over time due to exposure to
ultraviolet light in the environment. This is normal and cannot be removed by cleaning.
Some cleaner may accelerate this process.
