Laminate Top Care
Forcleaning laminate surfaces, use a mild dishwashing
liquid with warm water. Use a soft cloth for both washing
and drying.
Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or gritty
cleaners or damage will occur to the surface.
Walls and Ceiling Panels
The paneling and the ceiling of your motor home may be
any of several finishes and textures. Never use harsh
detergents or abrasive cleaners on walls or ceilings.
Most surfaces will clean with a soft cloth moistened with
mild liquid detergent in warm water. Do not use large
amounts of water which could saturate the material.
Bathtub and Plastic Shower Stall
Some cleaners attack the plastic causing it to discolor
and become brittle. The following cleaners have been
tested and approved when mixed with water: Distilled
vinegar, mild dishwasher detergent, or liquid deodoriz-
ing cleaner. Avoid cleaners with any level of abrasives,
acetone or MEK (methyl ethyl ketone).
Floors and Carpeting
Vinyl flooring requires only washing and periodic wax-
ing. Vacuum carpeting regularly, and clean it with a
quality carpet cleaner. Do not use water or waxes mixed
with water on wood floor.
