Surface Cleaning
Use common, household NON ABRASIVE cleaners for most cleaning jobs. Rinse well and dry with
clean cloth. Never use abrasive cleaners. Do not allow your acrylic surface come into contact with
products such as acetone (nail polish remover), nail polish, dry cleaning solutions, lacquer thinners,
gasoline, pine oil, etc. Remove dust with a wet sponge, and dry with a soft, dry cloth. Paint splashes
with a quick wipe of mineral spirits followed by a rinse with water.
