Protection

For appearance purposes, you may wish to protect the acrylic (cloth) top periodically. Afabric protectant such as Scotchguard is suggested. The top should be clean and dry before application of the protectant.

CAUTION!
Avoid getting Scotchguard on the surrounding weather strips, moldings, paint, or glass. Damage to these items might occur.
