Maintenance
1. Read the label and follow the manufacturer's instructions. Only use cleaners that are specifically
recommended for fiberglass as detailed on the label of the cleaning product. Use of cleaners not
designed for gel coated surfaces could be damaging. Cleaners specifically formulated for use on
wood or teak normally are not appropriate for fiberglass.
2. For stubborn stains that cannot be removed with mild soap and water you may try mineral spirits.
Be sure to rinse the fiberglass surface with clean water after using mineral spirits or any other
chemical cleaner or the surface will become dull.
3. Run a test spot. Try it in an inconspicuous area. If it discolors or dulls this area, do not use it.
Blinds and Shades
Blinds and shades should be vacuumed regularly with a soft brush attachment. Use of a soft cloth and
mild cleaner on metal blinds will help keep them looking new. For fabric shades, upholstery cleaners are
not recommended. Instead, spot clean when necessary, using a mild soap and water solution on affected
area.
Cabinet Doors and Drawers
Your cabinet door and drawer fronts should be cared for similar to fine furniture. Use a quality furniture
polish to help maintain the luster of the wood as well as keeping the wood from drying out. Many
accidental scratches can be hidden satisfactorily with a good quality furniture scratch cover-up.
Carpeting
Vacuum regularly to remove abrasive grit and dirt. Water based spills and spots should be removed
immediately with a damp cloth. Grease or oil-based stains and spots should be spot cleaned with a good
quality spot cleaner made for this purpose. If complete shampooing is desired, it can be performed with
home or rental equipment however it is best to be done by a competent professional carpet cleaner.
Never soak or water-log your carpeting.
Vinyl Flooring
Vinyl flooring can be mopped using any readily available vinyl floor cleaning agent. Do not use any
chemical or cleaner that is not specifically for vinyl flooring. Other chemicals or cleaners may strip the
finish coating or create stains. Waxing is not needed.
Faucets and Fixtures
To protect the finishes on your kitchen and bath faucets and fixtures, use only a damp cloth or sponge.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or materials as they can damage the finish.
Toilet
Use non-abrasive cleaners with a non-abrasive bowl brush, sponge or soft cloth. Do not use scouring
powders, acids or concentrated cleaners which can damage surfaces, plastic parts and rubber seals.
Failure to do so can void your warranty.
Ceiling, Wall and Cabinet Panels
Clean only with a mild detergent in warm water, using a damp cloth to clean the panel. Never use strong
chemicals or excessive water/moisture, as either can damage the panels. Aggressive scrubbing will
damage the texture and finish.
