Motorhome/Caravan Acrylic & Glass Window Non Smear Cleaner 500mls Spray

Product Information

The bottle is 100 ml and not a spray design like the other, but you don’t need to use much to make a difference. It’s applied directly onto a cloth and worked into the material so it doesn’t need to sit on the surface to do its job. In summation, there are plenty of reasons why you should use acrylic glass over the normal glass. At first, it may not be easy to make the switch. But in the long run, the acrylic glass will prove its worth to you with vibrant efficiency. This product is extraordinary, mainly because it is just water that has been repeatedly refined through five filters, demineralising it in the process. Because of this, the water acts as a sort of ‘dust magnet’, drawing in dirt to replace its depleted minerals. It is clear, smells of nothing, but boy does it clean and shine with almost no effort.

It is also important to use a polishing wheel in proportion to the size of the acrylic glass window. Otherwise, the sheets could experience friction burns and damage. The wheel itself should be covered with muslin to ensure lower temperatures during buffing. You should begin with rough sandpaper to conduct most of the heavy sanding. Once you have gone over the entire surface with the rough sandpaper, you can switch to a smooth paper. This will leave a smooth finish. However, be sure to keep a light-handed approach. Additionally, make sure that the sander is in constant motion, otherwise, it may end up damaging the acrylic sheet. Third, remove the glazed polish with warm water and a microfiber cloth then do a final cleaning of the window using the Seitz Window Cleaner and a dry microfiber cloth. Try and keep the microfiber cloths that you use for everything separate. We like to use different color microfiber cloths to help with this entire process (i.e. blue for the initial cleaning, green for the removal of the polish, yellow for the final cleaning of the window). For this job, you’ll need several things. Even though you can do this job by hand, we strongly recommend using either a Dewalt polisher or an 18 volt battery operated rotary drill like those made by Makita. These devices make the job go much faster. In addition to the Dometic window cleaner and polish, we also recommend getting a set of microfiber buffing pads, a buffing wheel to mount on your drill, and a load of microfiber cloths. You’ll also need a small bottle of warm water to keep the polish wet while buffing. Before starting, you’ll also want to remove all jewelry like rings and watches, which can accidentally scratch the windows while working on them (don’t ask me how I know). I. Polishing I use window tint to protect the acrylic windows and cut down on UV light entering my Northern Lite. You should not apply window tint to the inside of a double pane window and regular window tint applied to the outside would probably damage the acrylic window due to adhesive etching the acrylic.

Not every cleaning utensil is compatible with an acrylic glass. In fact, some cleaning items may end up damaging the acrylic sheet and render them translucent instead of transparent. Plexi glass windows can absorb high amounts of pressure; noticeably more than normal glass. Furthermore, acrylic glass allows more light in than standard glass. As a result, you can see much more clearly through it. That is why you will often find such glass being used in the creation of aquariums and underwater facilities. This polish is to be exclusively used on Perspex and flexible plastic, so it’s great for most caravan windows. Although this is a polish as opposed to a cleaner, it works gently to remove stains and scuffs as well as reduce discolouration in your caravan windows. How do the windows look now? A hundred times better. With several passes on the more troublesome windows, they now look great. Are all of the micro scratches now gone? I’d say most of them. After polishing them, some scratches can still be seen, but these scratches are mostly on the inside. Additional time will be needed to get to these later. In the meantime, we can now enjoy the morning and evening views from the comfort of our dinette.
