When cleaning Plexiglass, always make sure that you are using a soft, clean cloth. First, blow the dust or dirt off, or use water and a soft cloth to float the dirt off. Then use a recommended cleaner to complete the job. Note: a mild solution of dish detergent and warm water takes off stubborn dirt easily without harming the acrylic Sort of float the dirt off. Please... never, ever, use cleaners containing ammonia. Cleaners such as Windex or 409 will harm your piece of acrylic. Use only products specifically recommended for cleaning acrylic such as Novus #1, Plexiclear or Brillianize etc.
