How do I clean my acrylic?

To clean acrylic surfaces, use a soft, lint-free cloth with water or a specialized acrylic cleaner. Avoid ammonia-based products, as they can cause cloudiness and damage.

Recommended Cleaning Methods

    • DO NOT use acrylic cleaners or polishing agents.
    • Avoid Ammonia-Based Cleaners: Never use ammonia-based glass cleaners, as these can cause cloudiness and reduce the clarity of acrylic over time. 
    • Combine equal parts of water and isopropyl alcohol for an alternative cleaning solution.
    • Optional:
      • Combine a few drops of mild detergent with distilled water, then use a microfiber cloth to gently clean the surface.
      • Rinse the surface with distilled water to thoroughly eliminate any remaining detergent residue, and then use a separate cloth to dry the area completely.
