Cleaning and Care Tips
As with any quality product - proper care will enhance and prolong the usefulness of your sunglasses and protect your investment. Cleaning For optimum performance, rinse your sunglasses daily in warm water. Use mild dish washing liquid or bath soap to wash the lens surface. Dry using a clean, soft, absorbant cloth. Do not use paper-based products to clean your lenses. Do not use abrasive cleaners, soaps or detergents that may leave a deposit on the lens. Do not use tissues with added lotions, lanolin, silicone or other cleaners; they will leave a film on the lens. | | | | Scratches The coatings on your lenses are resistant to light scratching; however, heavy, abusive scratching can break through the coatings and cause visible marks. Removing dirt and other particals with good cleaning practices and keeping your sunglasses in their case when not in use will significantly help to prolong the life of your lenses. Good cleaning practices will help minimize scratching. | Chemicals Certain common household chemicals will react negatively with the frame material and the metal oxides used on the coatings of your lenses. Avoid contact with acetone (nail polish remover), caustic solutions (such as glass or other ammonia-based cleaners), hair sprays containing methylene (listed on label), chlorine (from swimming pools or unfiltered water) or glue. | | | | Hard Water Hard water on your lenses will leave visible spots that are difficult to remove and may be damaging to your lens coatings. Clean and thououghly dry your lenses if hard water such as pool, unfiltered spinkler or ocean water comes in contact with your sunglasses. | Heat Excessive heat may deteriorate your lenses or misshapen your nylon frame. Avoid placing your sunglasses where you might expect excessive heat, for example, on the dashboard of your car. | | | | Hardware We recommend that you visit your local sunglass retailer periodically to have them tighten the eyewire screws and those attaching temples and nose bridge. |
