.
Use a nonabrasive household cleaner to clean all spa shell surfaces and
fixtures. Do not use scouring cleansers or solvents; damage to the acrylic
finish will result.
Your Emerald Whirlpool Spa is manufactured using LUCITE XL 1000
continuous-cast cross-linked acrylic sheet. This material provides a strong
chemical-resistant high gloss surface that is hard, nonporous, and imperme-
able to water.
Given proper care, the polished, lustrous surface of LUCITE XL 1000 sheet
will retain its appearance for many years. To clean your spa be sure to use
a soft absorbent cloth with any of the commercially available nonabrasive
foam or liquid agents in general cleaning concentrations. Always rinse
thoroughly with clean water and a soft chamois or moist cellulose sponge.
Cleaning agents containing strong abrasives such as scouring powders or
strong solvents such as gasoline, acetone, or denatured alcohol should not
be used to clean the acrylic surface of your spa.
Fine scratches may be minimized by the use of a mild automobile cleaner-
polish. The cleaner-polish has a fine abrasive action, and its wax content
tends to fill small scratches to make them less visible.
