Recommended Acrylic Cleaners

Acrylic tubs provide customers with a better quality tub vs gel coat tubs. Unfortunately, these tubs can scratch if cleaned 
incorrectly. The way to proceed is gently, very gently. The good news: gentle cleaning does not translate into high 
maintenance. On the contrary, you'll probably save some cash by foregoing pricey chemical cleansers. Here's how to clean 
your acrylic tub safely and naturally: Wash your tub often, at least once a week, and use a mild soap -- plain old 
dishwashing liquid is best -- with lots of hot water. Most dirt will simply wash off with clean water. We recommend using liquid 
dish washing soap such as Joy, Palmolive or similar. Clorox bleach, Windex, ammonia based glass cleaners, Formula 409 and 
Fantastic are stronger cleaners that are also safe to use.  Always clean with a soft sponge. Never, ever use abrasive cleaning 
products (those containing fine grit; check the label) or abrasive cleaning pads. 

Use of these chemicals will destroy the 

acrylic and void your warranty. 

Waxing is another no-no. Your acrylic tub is naturally very shiny and designed to stay that 

way without additional help. Lastly, is your water supply kind of alkaline? If so, you might notice a little hard-water buildup 
appearing over time. The easiest fix, believe it or not, is plain white vinegar. Spray a 50/50 mix of water and vinegar on the 
affected areas and let it soak for a while. Rub gently, then rinse.
