2. Verify if receiving area is accessible by trailer.
3. Verify access to service elevators.
4. Reserve service elevators in advance, if necessary.

Care & Maintenance
Fabrics
To remove dust particles, lightly vacuum the fabric surface. Spills and fluid should be immediately blotted. For minor
fabric stains and marks use water-based fabric solvent, applying light pressure, to lift the dirt and stain. Any use of
water and soaps may harm the fabric, causing water stains and damage to the fabric’s contents. Do not scrub the
fabric with bristle or vacuum brushes as the fabric may pill or tear and the appearance may be permanently affected.
Professional steam cleaning is recommended.
Laminates
Dust laminated surfaces for regular maintenance. Clean any dirt or stain with a damp cloth. Do not use an excessive
amount of water, abrasive cleaners, acids or alkalis and do not scratch or scrape surfaces. For persistent stains and
marks use a commercial cleaner, such as Cabinet Magic® or Countertop Magic®, both manufactured by Magic
American Corporation.
Glazed Screens and Cabinet Doors
Dust glazed screen and cabinet doors regularly to keep surfaces free of dust particles. Clean any dirt or stain with a
damp cloth. Dry the area using a dry paper cloth. The use of fiber cloths or rags is not recommended as loose
particles and debris remaining on the cloth may scratch or harm the acrylic surface. Do not use other chemical
cleaners or window cleaners as their chemical compositions may alter and/or permanently affect the surface
appearance.
Painted Metals
Tayco’s painted metal products are powder-paint-coated. To clean these products, use a damp cloth, using only a
small amount of lukewarm water if necessary. Dry with a clean a dry cloth. To avoid scratching and damaging the
painted surface, do not use hard bristled brushes or abrasive.
THE USE OF HARSH CLEANERS AND CHEMICALS MAY PERMANENTLY ALTER THE PRODUCT FINISH APPEARANCE AND
WILL VOID WARANTY.
