POST INSTALLATION CLEAN-UP
Remove all construction debris from bath. Tile grout can be removed with a wooden popsicle stick or tongue depressor. Do not use wire brushes or any other metal implement on bath surface.
Post installation clean-up generally can be completed using warm water and liquid dishwashing detergent. Stubborn dirt or stains may be removed using granular Spic and Span® mixed with water.
Painter's naphtha can be used to remove excess adhesives and/or wet oil-base paint.
FEATURES of YOUR NEW AMERICAN STANDARD ACRYLIC BATHTUB
Your new acrylic bathtub has been molded in the newest plumbing fixture material available today. Acrylics are tough durable finishes that are simple and easy to care for. The colors have been formulated to match other American-Standard fixtures and enhance your choice of bathroom decorations. The high gloss surface is resistant to impact and chemicals and will retain its lasting luster with proper care and maintenance.
AFTERCARE and CLEANING
•Always fill the tub with temperate water. Excessively hot water may cause surface damage.
•Remove bath mat after use and hang to dry. Allowing bath mat to dry in the tub may cause surface damage.
•Clean after use with a mild liquid household detergent cleaner. Abrasive cleaners such as Lestoil, Lysol Disinfectant (spray or concentrate), or Lysol Basin, Tub and Tile Cleaner, Windex, Mr. Clean, Dow Disinfectant Bathroom Cleaner, or cleaning products in aerosol cans should not be used.
HARSH CHEMICALS SHOULD NEVER BE USED ON ACRYLIC SURFACES.
•Do not use wire brushes, knives or sharp objects to remove stains, cigarette tar deposits, or other surface blemishes.
•Abrasive cleaners or powders must not be used, since they will dull the surface. If the glossy surface looses its sheen, dulled areas can be restored by rubbing with a white polishing compound and waxing with a "liquid wax."
•Do not wax areas where you walk or stand.
•Do not allow nail polish remover, acetone, dry cleaning fluid, paint remover or other solvents to come into contact with the surface.
•Clean the surrounding surface immediately after using caustic drain cleaners.
•Burning cigarettes will damage the surface.
•Should damage to the fixture occur, repairs can be made quickly and easily. Your distributor or builder can provide details.
