Warning! Window cleaning sprays, RainX®, and alcohol-based solvents (such as acetone and lacquer thinner) should never be used on your EverClear™ Enclosure. Also exercise caution when using metal cleaners on pipework that is adjacent to EverClear™ acrylic panels.

 

Dedicate a wash mitt to your clean your enclosure with to reduce the chance of dirt & debris coming in contact with the acrylic panels. A mild boat wash is recommended.

 

We recommend polishing your acrylic panels monthly with 210® Plastic Cleaner/Polish, which removes static that attracts dust. It also has anti-fog as well as water-shedding properties.

To further protect your enclosure, we recommend waxing with Collinite® brand Insulator wax (#845). Only wax panels that have just been cleaned.

 

For minor scratches, we recommend Novus® #2 Fine Scratch Remover. Apply in circular motion and buff off.

For deeper scratches, you can also use Novus® #3 Heavy Scratch Remover. Complete with an application of Novus® #2.

Strataglass Care & Use

It is extremely important fabricators and vessel & car owners read & understand this information. We request fabricators provide owners a copy of this sheet.

• We recommend using only IMAR Strataglass Protective Polish, IMAR Strataglass Protective Cleaner, and mild soap (preferably IMAR Yacht Soap Concentrate) on Strataglass. (We no longer recommend the use of any other products, regardless of the manufacturer's claims.)

• After September 30. 2004. using any other product(s) may void the factory warranty

• WARNING:
o Use of RAINEX on STRATAGLASS appears to work for a short time but then dulls the surface and presents an "Orange Peel" effect. Do not use RAINEX.

o Use of cleaners, polishes, scratch removers, or any oth,erproduct made for regular, uncoated vinyl will damage STRATAGLASS. Do not use these products.

o DO NOT HANDLE STRATAGLASS (OR ANY VINYL) WITH SUNSCREEN ON YOUR HANDS! This will permanently cloud the vinyl where handled.

General Maintenance:

 

We recommend using IMAR Strataglass Protective Polish every 2 to 3 months (every 4 to 6 weeks in areas of high fallout). In the interim, use IMAR Strataglass Protective Cleaner frequently. Note: All new vinyl can easily get impressions in itself. We recommend new enclosures be left in place to the extent possible. If completely removed, enclosures must be interleaved with either acid-free paper (available from framing shops) or old sheets (the best choice) to prevent "pooling" in the glass. Vinyl "seasons" over time and becomes less impressionable. Roll all curtains down and fasten in place nightly to keep perfect appearance. (Review at www.strataglass.com)

 

Cleaning: Flush thoroughly to cool the surface and rinse away environmental abrasives. Wash with IMAR Yacht Soap Concentrate, or other equally gentle and high quality soap. Do not use Simple Green, Orpine or any other harsh cleaner they will dull the surface. Apply the soapy water to the clear vinyl section of the curtain with special purpose washing
mitts or soft cotton cloths. Thoroughly rinse the soapy solution with fresh water and completely dry the curtains with a
high quality chamois. (Swobbit makes several tools to make these tasks easier.) Your clear vinyl curtains should be
washed whenever your boat is washed. After washing the curtains, apply IMAR Strataglass Protective Polish sparingly
with small, light circular motions using a soft cotton cloth. Allow the polish to dry and then remove with a clean soft cotton
cloth. Finally, lightly buff to a sparkling shine. Done. For routine maintenance between polishing, use IMAR Strataglass
Protective Cleaner. Insure the clear vinyl panels are free of abrasives. Very lightly mist a soft cotton cloth. Lightly and
briskly rub a manageable sized area and then lightly buff dry with another clean cloth. Done. We recommend using
IMAR Strataglass Cleaner at least weekly, but it's so fast and easy you may want to do it daily. You'll love the shine.

Restoring: We once recommended a restoration process but extensive experience shows actual damage cannot
truly be repaired. If IMAR Strataglass Protective Polish cannot restore the clarity and shine it may be time to consider
replacing the enclosures. Please ... Please ... use our recommended procedures and products from the beginning.

Trouble Shooting: Please see our "tips for the fabricator" and our "trouble shooting" sections on our web site for a
complete discussion.

Nautolex Care & Use

This Nautolex marine product has been designed to provide years of dependable service with normal use and care. Regular care will help keep Nautolex marine products looking their best. However, some stains can become permanent if not removed quickly. We recommend cleaning as soon as possible after a stain is discovered.

 

Weekly cleaning.
Each week, wipe surfaces with a soft, damp cloth and towel dry. In very rainy weather, cover or remove cushions since seams can trap and absorb moisture. Cushions should be stored in a dry, well-ventilated place.

Special cleaning problems.
For dirt or stains that cannot be removed with a damp cloth (refer to cleaning chart below for examples) and to minimize any problems from these and other stains, it is recommended that as soon as they are noticed all stains should be cleaned, making sure the recommended cleaning steps are used in the following order:

Mild soap and water solution.
Use mild soap and water solution and if necessary, a soft-bristle brush. Rinse cleaned area with fresh water then dry with a clean, lint-free cloth. DO NOT USE abrasive powders, steel wool, industrial strength or solvent cleaners, vinyl “conditioners” or “protectants.” These products should be avoided on this Nautolex marine product. Undiluted bleach or lacquer solvents can dull or damage the marine product. If in doubt about a detergent or cleaner, test a patch in an inconspicuous place before applying in a larger area.

CAUTION: Suntan lotion and insect repellants can cause rapid staining and deterioration of the surface of the product. Remove these products immediately after contact. Wash the area with a mild soap and water solutions, rinse with clean, warm water, then towel dry.

Nautolex Topping.
These simple care and cleaning instructions will help keep this Nautolex Topping product mildew-free and looking good for years to come.

 

Weekly cleaning.
Each week, brush the fabric side of the topping with a soft bristle brush to remove any dirt and contamination build-up. After brushing, wash the fabric surface with a solutions made of 1-cup hosehold bleach per gallon of clean water, and allow to air dry. Wash the vinyl side of your topping with a mild detergent solution, rince with clean water and towel dry.

Special cleaning problems.
If mildew growth is a problem, spray the affected areas on the fabric side only with a cleaner such as X-14® Instant Mildew Stain Remover. Follow the manufacturers instructions provided on the container to ensure correct usage. Because X-14 is a caustic liquid, it can discolor some fabrics and cause deterioration of natural fabrics, such as cotton.

CAUTION: Never store a top that is wet, and do not store in a tightly sealed, humid container. Both of these conditions can cause rapid mildew growth.
