CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE ACRYLIC SHELL
The Lucite
®
cast acrylic surface of this foot spa is among the glossiest, most durable surfaces
available. Its hard, non-porous surface prevents dirt from accumulating and resists stains better than
other materials. With normal use, cast acrylic will retain its beauty with only a minimal amount of
care. To maintain the high gloss, elegant look of the acrylic surface, follow these simple steps:
1. Use common household, non-abrasive cleaners for most cleaning jobs (for example:
a mild dishwashing detergent such as Ivory Liquid). Follow manufacturer’s directions
and precautions. Rinse well and dry with a soft, clean cloth. Be sure to check the
product label. Some products, although not containing abrasives, WILL damage the
acrylic over time.
Never use any type of “scrubbing bubbles” on your acrylic
product unless it specifically states that it is safe for use on acrylic!
2. Never use abrasive cleansers. If any product feels gritty when rubbed between your
fingers, do not use on the acrylic surface or controls as permanent damage will occur.
3. Do not allow your cast acrylic to come into direct contact with nail polish, nail polish
remover, Wintergreen oil, dry cleaning solution, lacquer thinners, gasoline, pine oil, etc.
4. Remove dust and dirt with a soft, damp cloth.
5. Avoid using razor blades or other sharp objects that may scratch the surface. Small
scratches can be removed by applying a thin coat of automotive paste wax and buffing
lightly with a clean cloth. For deeper scratches, sand the surface lightly with a 400 grit
“wet or dry” paper and buff with a fine grit buffing compound.
NOTE: MTI strongly recommends a professional acrylic repair company for
deep scratches or chips.
