9 Components 10 Cleaning Infinity / Infinity D 12 10 8 6 4 2 Infinity R / RD 6 Infinity Z / ZD 6 6 4 10.01 Select a mild, non-abrasive cleaning agent typically used for cleaning painted or reflective surfaces. Never use abrasive cleaning agents as such treatments may scratch, mar, alter, discolor, and/ or remove the finish. 10.02 Before cleaning the finish, perform a trial test on a section of the finish that will be hidden from view once installed. This will insure that the cleaning agent selected is appropriate and will not damage the finish in question. 10.03 Once an appropriate cleaning solution has been selected, care should be taken to use only that amount which is necessary. Do not soak the ceiling components with the solution. 10.04 Use a clean soft sponge or cloth when applying the cleaning agent in order to insure that the applicator does not contain any abrasive elements that may damage the finish in question. 10.05 Any excess cleaning solution should be removed immediately so that the solution does not dry and possibly leave a residue. In the event that a large area needs to be cleaned, it s advisable to break the area down into smaller, more manageable sections so that adequate time is available to complete each phase of the cleaning cycle. 10.06 After cleaning the soiled or smudged area, wipe the surface with a dry soft cloth to remove any residual cleaning solution and dry the area. Use a clean damp cloth to remove any residue that cannot be removed with the dry cloth. Repeat the drying process. 10.07 After the components are clean, allow a few minutes for air drying before installation. It is important that the clean components are dry because other ceiling material, such as insulation, which may come into contact with the cleaned components, can be susceptible to damage from moisture.
