Instructions on Cleaning

GENERAL CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS:
Use non-abrasive soap and water when possible. Review instructions on cleaner before applying to the installed DuraBath® SSP material. Never use abrasives. Be sure to thoroughly rinse after each cleaning.

WARNING: Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasives, lime removers, toilet bowl cleaners or any chemicals that have not been approved by Re-Bath/AmBath. Use of these chemicals or abrasives will cause a dull surface and/or chemical crazing or cracking or the DuraBath® SSP material.
