Cleaning Recommendations for Polycarbonate Shields
Use of the Manhasset Clear Shield products continues to grow exponentially during this season. Please read the improved cleaning recommendations, which are detailed below. These recommendations will be included with all shipments of Clear Shield products.
CLEANING RECOMMENDATIONS
Periodic cleaning of Polycarb Shield is recommended to prolong the service life of your stand. To minimize the risk of damage, use only compatible household cleaners and correct cleaning procedures as outlined below.
Polycarbonate mars easily with wiping action. The use of abrasive, gritty cleaners or hard cleaning implements (e.g., hard brushes, scrapers, squeegees) should be avoided to eliminate the possibility of scratching the coating. Use a microfiber cloth or moist non-abrasive sponge only.
GENERAL CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Thoroughly pre-rinse with warm water to loosen and wash away surface residue, grit and grime.
Using a soft microfiber cloth or moist non-abrasive sponge, gently wash with a mild diluted soap or detergent.
Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm, clean water. To prevent water spots, thoroughly dry the shield with a dry soft cloth.
IMPORTANT REMINDERS
Do not clean Polycarb Shield with any cleaners other than those on the approved, compatible list:
Top Job® Basic, No Bleach or Ammonia
Joy® Dishwashing Soap
Palmolive® Liquid Soap
Windex® Ammonia free
Do not use abrasive cleaners.
Do not use high alkaline cleaners (high pH or ammoniated) including bleach.
Do not leave cleaners sitting on Shield for periods of time; rinse off immediately.
Do not apply cleaners under direct sunlight or at elevated temperatures.
Do not use scrapers, squeegees, razors or other sharp instruments as they may permanently scratch the Shield.
Do not dry rub or dry clean the Shield, as sand and dust particles clinging to the surface may scratch its surface. An Anti-Static Canned-Air Ionizer can reduce electrostatic charge buildup on the Shield, and aids in reducing dirt and dust buildup that can hinder cleaning.
WARRANTY NOTE
Cleaning your shield with a wrong cleaner can cause crazing, which is a chemical reaction between the cleaner and the surface coating of the Polycarbonate Shield. The use of wrong cleaners will void any warranty claims.
