cleaning, wash with warm water, a soft cloth, and a mild detergent, On
stubborn stains, use one of the powdered detergents, on a damp sponge or
scouring pad of ylon, saran, or poly-ethylene. Never use abrasive scouring
powders,- cleansers, or pads as they tend to create microgrooves that dull the
finish and allow it to work into the surface. Use of tank cleaning products
