HIGH-PRESSURE LAMINATE CARE

Table tops consist of a high pressure laminate, “formica”

like material.  The formica has a “matte texture” finish

and can be cleaned with hand dishwashing soap and

water or other cleaning solutions such as Fantastik™.

Always read the label before using any product.

NOTICE

DO NOT use abrasive cleaners or solvents on

formica.  DO NOT use Soft Scrub™ soap or

similar cleaning products; they will scratch the

surface and remove the shine.

STAR BOARD™

Star Board™ is a high density polyethylene (plastic)  and

is very durable and fade resistant.  Star Board™ requires

little maintenance, and is being used in place of wood in

many areas of the boat.  It is currently being used for ski

rack facers, ski locker lids, and seat supports.

To clean Star Board™, use a solvent-free, nonabrasive

cleaner such as hand dishwashing soap or Fantastik™.

Read the label before using any cleaning product.

NOTICE

Star Board™ will stain when exposed to certain

oils or chemicals.  Always wipe up any spills

immediately.

Cherry enhancements consist of a finished synthetic

cherry.  This synthetic cherry is found in the instrument

dash panel of the helm and glove box on the Horizon®

models.  In addition, the ignition switch panel and helm

switch panel, consist of this cherry.

To clean, a damp cloth will usually suffice.
