CLEANING THE SHROUDS
Adherence to regular and proper cleaning procedures is recommended to preserve the appearance.
MINIMIZE SCRATCHES
Wash the shrouds with a mild soap or detergent (e.g. Original Dawn
warm water using a clean sponge or a soft cloth. Rinse well with clean water. Dry thoroughly with a
chamois or moist cellulose sponge to prevent water spots. Do not scrub or use brushes on the
shrouds.
Fresh paint splashes, grease and smeared glazing compounds can be removed easily before drying
by rubbing lightly with isopropyl alcohol. Afterward, a warm final wash should be made, beginning
with a mild soap or detergent solution and ending with a thorough rinsing with clean water.
