HARSH CHEMICALS, SHARP AND ABRASIVE OBJECTS
SHOULD NEVER BE USED ON ACRYLIC SURFACES
• Do not use wire brushes, knives or sharp objects to remove stains or other surface blemishes.
• Use of abrasive cleaners or powders will dull the surface. If the glossy surface loses its sheen, dulled areas can
be partially restored by rubbing with a white automotive body polishing compound and waxing with a liquid wax.
Do not wax surfaces where you walk or stand.
• Do not allow nail polish remover, acetone, dry-cleaning fluid, paint remover, or other solvents to come into contact
with the surface.
• Clean the surrounding surface immediately after using caustic drain cleaners.
Do not permit drain cleaner to enter circulation system.
• Burning cigarettes will irreparably damage the surface of the whirlpool.
