Door Glass

Remove the protective foil on the glass.
There is a coating on the surface of
the glass.This coating minimizes the
stain build-up and helps to remove the
possible stains and dirt easily. Glass that
is not protected with such a coating
may be subject to persistent binding of
air or water based organic or inorganic
dirt such as limescale, mineral salts,
unburned hydrocarbons, metal oxides
and silicones that can easily and quickly
cause stains or material damage. Keeping
the glass clean becomes too difficult
despite regular cleaning. Consequently,
the appearance and the transparency
of the glass deteriorates. Harsh and
corrosive cleaning methods and
compounds will intensify these defects
and speed up the deterioration process.
Water-based cleaning products that are
not alkaline and corrosive must be used
for regular cleaning purposes.
