Compatible Cleaners for polycarbonate

The following cleaning agents have been found to be compatible with polycarbonate.

Manufacturer's instructions should be followed.

Formula 409™ (Clorox Co.) Top Job™ (Proctor & Gamble)

VM & P grade Naphtha Joy™(Proctor & Gamble)

Windex w/Ammonia D™Drackett Products) Palmolive Liquid™(Colgate Palmolive)

Foreign Substance Removal

• Butyl Cellosolve (For removal of paints, marking pens, lipstick, etc.)

• The use of masking tape, adhesive tape or lint removal tool s work well for lifting off

old weathered paints.

• To remove labels, stickers, etc., the use of kerosene, naphtha, or petroleum spirits is

generally effective. When the solvent will not penetrate sticker material, apply heat (hair

dryer) to soften the adhesive and promote removal.

GASOLINE SHOULD NEVER BE

USED

Job Site Precautions

It is recommended the clock be removed from the wall and stored face up in its protective

shipment bag during painting and construction.

New construction and renovations frequently require that the job site be cleaned of any

excess mortar, paint, sealant, primers or other construction compounds. Only

recommended cleaners should be used to clean the polycarbonate lens. Contact with

harsh solvents such as methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) or muriatic acid can result in surface

degradation and possible crazing of the polycarbonate.

When the clock is first installed, glazing compound and masking tape adhesive can be

easily removed from the lens by applying naphtha (VM&P) or kerosene with a soft cloth,

followed immediately with a thorough soap and water cleaning.

DO NOT USE

GASOLINE
