NOTES

  • Use polishing compound (such as car wax) to clean and remove shoe scuffs from powdercoated surfaces as necessary.

CLEANING THE SHIELDS

The shields on the Signature Series machines are made from POLYCARBONATE.
Adherence to regular and proper cleaning procedures is recommended to preserve the appearance.
Washing to Minimize Scratches
Wash POLYCARBONATE with a mild soap or detergent (e.g. Original Dawn Dishwashing Liquid) and lukewarm water using a clean sponge or a soft cloth. Rinse well with clean water. Dry thoroughly with a chamois or moist cellulose sponge to prevent water spots. Do not scrub or use brushes on these products.
Fresh paint splashes, grease and smeared glazing compounds can be removed easily before drying by rubbing lightly with isopropyl. Afterward, a warm final wash should be made, using a mild soap or detergent solution and ending with a thorough rinsing with clean water.

Removal of Paint, Marking Pen, Labels

Butyl cellosolve works well for removal of paints, marking pen inks, lipstick, etc.
Labels, stickers, etc. may be removed using kerosene. When the solvent will not penetrate sticker material apply heat (hair dryer) to soften the adhesive and promote removal. GASOLINE SHOULD NOT BE USED.
