• To maintain them on a frequent basis, vacuum with the brush attachment.
• There are dusting tools available in the market place designed specifically
for mini-blinds.
• To wash them, mild soap and water is best. This can be done in a tub, or
the blinds can be hung on a fence or wall and rinsed with a hose.

The Solid Surface was created for a lifetime of easy care. Just follow the
simple guidelines listed here to keep your surfaces looking good.
Routine Care:
The motorhome countertops are finished with one type of finish:
matte/satin. All solid surface sinks and bowls have the matte/satin finish. Soapy
water or ammonia-based cleaners will remove most dirt and stains from all tops
and bowls. However, slightly different techniques must be used to remove dif-
ferent stains. Follow the recommendations below.
Cleaning Countertops:
• Most dirt and stains: Use soapy water or ammonia-based cleaner.
• Water marks: Wipe with damp cloth and towel dry.
• Difficult stains: Use soft scrub and a Grey
Scotchbrite Pad.
• Disinfecting: Occasionally wipe surface with diluted household
bleach (one part water and one part bleach).
Cleaning Solid Surfaces Sink:
Occasionally clean by using Soft Scrub Liquid Cleanser and a Grey
Scotchbrite Pad. Scrub the sink, rinse and towel dry. Do this as often as you
feel necessary.
Removing Cuts and Scratches:
Because the beauty of the surface goes all the way through the Solid
Surface, the countertops are completely renewable. Use the following
instructions to remove minor cuts and scratches.
• Sand with 180 grit and then 320 grit sandpaper until the scratch is gone.
• Restore the finish using a Grey
Scotchbrite Pad. Never sand hard in one
small area. Feather out lightly to blend restoration.
Preventing Heat Damage:
The Solid Surface withstands heat better than ordinary surface materials;
however, hot pans and some heat-generating appliances, such as frying pans or
crockpots, can damage the surface. To prevent heat damage, always use a hot
pad or a trivet with rubber feet to protect the surface. In most cases the surface
can be repaired if it is accidentally damaged.
