Never use a dry cloth or duster or glass cleaning
solutions on acrylic.
To clean acrylic, fi rst fl ood it with water to wash off
as much dirt as possible. Next, use your bare hand,
with plenty of water, to feel and dis lodge any caked
dirt or mud. A soft, grit-free cloth may then be used
with a nonabrasive soap or detergent. A soft sponge,
kept clean for this purpose, is excellent. Blot dry with
a clean damp chamois.
Grease and oil may be removed from acrylic
with kerosene, hexane, white (not aviation or
ethyl) gasoline or aliphatic naphtha (no aromatic
content).
Do not use solvents such as acetone, silicone
spray, benzine, carbon tetrachloride, fire
ex tin guish er fl uid, dry cleaning fl uid or lacquer
thinner on acrylic, since they attack the
surface.
Remove fi ne scratches with fi ne automotive acrylic
rubbing and polishing compounds.

ANVAS AND
Do not fold or store any of the canvas pieces while
wet. All canvas should be rolled or folded when dry and
stored in a clean, dry place. For clear vinyl pieces, the
recommended methods for storage are rolling or laying
down fl at. The clear vinyl should never be folded or
creased as cracking will result. To protect the clear vinyl
from rubbing against itself while rolled or stored fl at, place
a piece of very soft, nonabrasive cloth between the pieces.
If the surface of the clear vinyl becomes scratched, the
canvas manufacturer has provided a canvas care sheet
located in your Owner's Manual Packet. When storing
the rear (aft) curtain, fold the canvas over the clear vinyl
window (do not fold clear vinyl), then roll or store fl at.
The fabric should be cleaned regularly before substances
such as dirt, pollen, etc. are allowed to accumulate on and
become embedded in the fabric. The fabric can be cleaned
without being removed from the installation. Simply brush
off any loose dirt, particles, etc.; hose down and clean
with a mild solution of a natural soap in lukewarm water
(no more than 100°F, 38°C); rinse thoroughly to remove
soap. DO NOT USE DETERGENTS. Allow to completely
dry.
Wash and clean vinyl windows with a warm soap
solution. Use a soft cloth or sponge and do not scratch
the surface.
If you have stubborn cleaning cases, call your dealer
for proper procedures. Do not try your own cleaning
procedures as they may permanently damage the
canvas.
After each use, especially in salt water areas, rinse the
canvas completely with fresh cold water. Then let the
canvas dry completely before stowing.
All metal components of the canvas should be rinsed with
fresh cold water and exposed components wiped dry to
maintain appearance and working order.
