Care Instructions

Regular cleaning with fresh water and a soft 

cloth will keep and protect your windshield, 

window, or hatch for years.

GLASS

Use commercially available glass cleaners or a 

mixture of fresh water and vinegar. Do not use 

abrasives, harsh chemicals, or metal scrapers. 

Regular cleaning will help assure clarity of the 

glass for safe boating. 

PLASTIC TYPE

WINDSHIELDS

Never use glass cleaning solutions or dry cloth 

to clean Plexiglas. Never use acetone, benzene, 

carbon tetrachloride, or lacquer thinner. The 

only acceptable cleaners are a small amount of 

denatured alcohol, clean water, or a commer-

cially available plastic polisher specific for the 

purpose. Use a soft rag and wash off the plastic 

windshield first with lukewarm water to avoid 

scratching the surface.

WINDOW CHANNELS

Clean window channels with mild detergent only. 

Channels can be sprayed with silicon aerosol 

while sliding the glass back and forth.

STAINLESS STEEL

Polish with commercially available metal pol-

ishes. A boat or car wax periodically applied will 

offer extra protection against the elements.

PAINTED SURFACES 

Clean with fresh water periodically. Touch up 

scratches and areas where paint has chipped 

off with touch-up spray paint. Touch up kits are 

available from the factory. Boat top clips – never 

slide along windshield framework.

To change clip location, snap on and off the 

aluminum top track.

SIDE WING VENT

ADJUSTERS

Use care when opening and closing vent. Do not 

force.

Never ground windshield with any electrical 

devices or appliances.

Never use the windshield as a mooring cleat for 

tying off to a dock, pier or another boat. Never 

use the windshield as a tie-off attachment for 

trailering purposes.
