CLEANING AND CARE
WINDSHIELD AND WINDOWS
The plastic windshield and windows should be cleaned with an
aircraft windshield cleaner. Apply the cleaner sparingly with soft
cloths, and rub with moderate pressure until all dirt, oil scum and
bug stains are removed. Allow the cleaner to dry, then wipe it off
with soft flannel cloths.
CAUTION
NEVER USE GASOLINE, BENZENE, ALCOHOL,
ACETONE, FIRE EXTINGUISHER, ANTI-ICE FLUID,
LACQUER THINNER OR GLASS CLEANER TO
CLEAN THE PLASTIC. THESE MATERIALS WILL
ATTACK THE PLASTIC AND MAY CAUSE IT TO
CRAZE.
If a windshield cleaner is not available, the plastic can be cleaned
with soft cloths moistened with Stoddard solvent to remove oil and
grease.
