4. Acrylic Shower Base Care & Cleaning Instructions
The Lucite
®
cast acrylic surface of all Pittsburgh Corning Shower Bases is among the
glossiest, highest quality surfaces available. Its hard, non -porous surface prevents dirt from
accumulating and resists stains better than other materials. With normal use, Lucite cast acrylic
will retain its beauty with only a minimal amount of care. To maintain the high gloss, elegant look
of the Lucite cast acrylic surface, follow these simple steps:
1). Use common household, non-abrasive cleaners for most cleaning jobs (For example:
Lysol Basin, Tub & Tile Cleaner
®
; Glass Plus
®
; Simple Green
®
; Mr. Clean; and Top Job, or a
mild dishwashing detergent such as Ivory
®
Liquid.) Follow manufacturers' directions and
precautions. Rinse well and dry with a clean cloth.
2). Never use abrasive cleaners.
3). Do not allow your Lucite
®
cast acrylic surface to come into contact with
products such as acetone (nail polish remover), nail polish, dry cleaning
solution, lacquer thinners, gasoline, pine oil, winter green, etc.
4). Remove dust and dry dirt with a soft, damp cloth.
5). Clean grease, oil, paint or ink stains with isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol.
Dry with a clean, soft cloth.
6). Avoid using razor blades or other sharp objects that might scratch the
surface. Small scratches can be removed by applying a thin coat of automotive
paste wax and buffing lightly with a clean cloth. For deeper scratches, sand the
surface lightly, with # 400 grit sand paper "wet or dry" paper and buff with a
fine-grit buffing compound.
