OptiClear Glass Cleaning Instructions

Cleaning Guide

The importance of cleaning the glass properly is to ensure the highest performance and the highest transmission of light.

There are three steps to the cleaning process.

* Each part should be done in sections of the window.
* Smaller windows should be separated into 2 sections,
* Larger windows should be separated into 4 sections.

Materials

GOOD LIGHTING

The room should be well lit,
If there is not enough sufficient lighting, a flashlight may be held to show dust particles.

1 SPRAY BOTTLE OF ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL

-Available at local drugstore
-70%, 90% & 99% acceptable*

100% COTTON CLOTHS

-100% Pure Cotton
-Make sure cloths are totally clean
The higher percentage creates quicker evaporation.

Directions

STEP 1: DUST

Use cloth 1 to dust off glass. (Reason: the same way a dusty shelf needs to be dry wiped before a liquid is used to clean, so to the glass needs to be dusted off. This avoids streaking on the glass

STEP 2: SPRAY & WIPE

Spray 4 or 5 sprays of the 70% Isopropyl alcohol on the section you are cleaning. Fold the second cloth in half or in quarters so the surface will be evenly cleaned. Wipe sprayed area with folded cloth. Use consistency in wiping, stick with up and down or side to side, don't switch it up mid clean. Apply a medium amount of pressure when scrubbing.

STEP 3: DRY WIPE

Immediately after finishing step 2, take the 3rd cloth and use it to wipe up the dirt that is left over from the step 2 cleaning. It is important that this step is also done in the same direction and done across the full distance of the section you are cleaning. If you are having trouble getting the full piece of glass to be streak-less, make sure the area where light will be projected through (the light footprint on the glass) does not have any streaks.
