To clean and condition the vinyl
cover:
- Remove the cover from the spa and gently lean it
against a wall or fence.
- With a garden hose, spray the cover to loosen and
rinse away dirt or debris.
- Using a large sponge and/or a soft bristle brush, and
using a very mild soap solution ( 1 teaspoon dishwashing liquid with2 gallons of
water) or baking soda (sodium bicarbonate), scrub the vinyl top in a circular motion. Do
not let the vinyl dry with a soap film on it before it can be rinsed clean. IMPORTANT:
To avoid soap getting soap into the water or baking soda on the redwood skirt, which can
blacken the skirt, the spa cover should not be on the spa during cleaning.
- Scrub the cover's perimeter and side flaps. Rinse
clean.
- Rinse off the bottom of the cover (use no soap), and
wipe it clean with a dry rag.
- To condition the cover after cleaning, apply a thin
film of cover conditioner to the vinyl surface and buff to a high luster.
SERVICE NOTE: To remove tree sap, use cigarette
lighter fluid (not charcoal lighter fluid). Use sparingly, and rinse with a saddle
soap solution immediately afterwards and rinse dry.
Important reminders:
- DO remove snow buildup to avoid foam core breakage
- Do lock cover straps to secure the cover when the spa
is not in use.
- Do Not drag or lift the spa cover using either the
flaps or tie down straps.
- Do Not walk, stand or sit on the cover.
- Do Not place any hot items or objects that will
magnify or conduct heat on the cover; foam core damage may result.
- Do Not use any chemicals or cleaners except those
recommended by Watkins manufacturing Corp or its Authorized Sales and Service Dealer.
