Your carbon frame needs regular care. Common
paint care products with or without silicon additives
and cold to lukewarm water are suitable for clean-
ing.
You can add common dish detergents to the cold to
lukewarm water.
All solvents must be avoided:
• alcohols (e.g. ethanol or isopropanol)
• hot water with alkaline additives
• do not clean with steam jets or high-pressure
cleaners
Check whether your frame has external damage at
regular intervals (e. g. during maintenance):
• cracks
• paint damages
• discoloration
• deformation (bulges, etc.)
S U R FA C E P R O T E C T I O N
YT Industries carbon frames are equipped with
protective foils or protectors made of polyamide or
polyurethane at points which are exposed to particu-
lar stress.
Other points could form due to different application
areas and conditions (e.g. wearing knee protectors).
These areas must be protected against damage or
abrasions with additional protective foils.
• Please check at regular intervals whether the
protective foils are still functional.
• We recommend replacing the protective foil around
tension points once a year.
