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 accept-
able cleaners are a small amount of
denatured alcohol, clean water, or a
commercially 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 deter-
gent only. Channels can be sprayed with
silicon aerosol while sliding the glass
back and forth.
STAINLESS STEEL
Polish with commercially available metal
polishes. 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 elec-
trical 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.
