UV radiation. Use extreme care when cleaning them to prevent the appearance
of scratch marks.
Caution
Do not use abrasive cleaners or cleaning fluids containing ammonia, alcohol,
acetone, benzine, carbon or tetrachloride. These materials can cause
permanent damage to the surface.
To clean the UV screen:
1. Blow off surface dust.
Do
not
wipe the surface to remove dust; this might scratch the surface.
2. Prepare a 1-percent solution of mild dish-washing soap in water—about two
teaspoons (10 ml) in a liter of water.
Note:
While soapy water is effective for cleaning, commercial products are also
available for cleaning acrylic surfaces (for example, Novus
®
and Brillianize
®
).
These products give the surface antistatic, smudge and scratch-resistant properties.
3. Soak a micro-fiber cloth in the solution.
Do not use paper towels, which can cause scratch marks.
4. Thoroughly wet the surface with the cloth. Do not wipe!
5. Rinse the cloth with clean water.
6. Absorb the solution from the acrylic surface with the cloth, without applying
pressure.
7. If necessary, repeat to remove any remaining marks, or apply clean water to
rinse the surface.
8. If the surface is still wet, you can dry it with a clean, micro-fiber cloth by gently
wiping in one direction.
If convenient, you can apply the cleaning solution and water to the acrylic
surfaces with a spray bottle instead of with the cloth.
