Clean-Up After Installation
To avoid dulling and scratching the surface of the bath,
neveruseabrasive cleaners. Amildliquid detergent and warm
water will clean soiled surfaces.
Remove spilled plaster with a wood or plastic edge. Metal
tools will scratch the surface. Spots left by plaster or grout
can be removed if lightly rubbed with detergent on a damp
cloth or sponge.
Paint, tar, or other difficult surface stains can be removed
with paint thinner, turpentine, or isopropyl alcohol (rubbing
alcohol). NOTE: Use these chemicals only on SURFACE
stains.
Minorscratches which donot penetrate the colorfinish can
beremovedbylightly sanding with 600-grit wet/drysandpaper.
You can restore the glossy finish to the acrylic surface of the
bath with a special compound, Meguiar's #10 Mirror Glaze.
If that is not available, use automotive rubbing compound fol-
lowed by an application of automotive paste wax.
Major scratches and gouges which penetrate the acrylic
surface will require refinishing. Ask your Jacuzzi Whirlpool
Bath dealer for special instructions or visit our web site at
