Clean-Up Procedures
CAUTION: Risk of product damage. Do not allow cleaners containing petroleum distillates to remain
in contact with the surface for long periods of time.
CAUTION: Risk of product damage. Do not use abrasive cleaners, as they may scratch and dull the
bath surface. Use warm water and a liquid, non-abrasive detergent to clean the surface.
CAUTION: Risk of product damage. Do not use metal scrapers, wire brushes, or other metal tools to
remove stains, paint, plaster, or tar. Use turpentine or paint thinner to remove stains, paint, or tar. Use
a powder-type detergent on a damp cloth to provide mild abrasive action to any residual plaster.
Clean and rinse the bath completely with water immediately after applying cleaners. Rinse and dry
any overspray that lands on nearby surfaces.
