Isinglass curtains are like windows that you can roll up if there's a change in weather. We have quality isinglass curtains for your boat, right here at Canvas Works.
If you want to make sure your isinglass curtains last for a long time, follow these tips for care and maintenance:
- To clean isinglass, rinse well with clear water and pat dry with a synthetic chamois or soft clean cloth.
- Refrain from wiping your windows, especially when dry or with a paper towel, as these may scratch the surface.
- Never fold isinglass, which can result in cracking of the material. One good way to store your curtains is to place a towel on the surface and roll them up.
- Only use cleaners made especially for see-through plastics. Never use ordinary household cleaners, which can destroy your isinglass in a matter of months.
- Never use furniture polish on isinglass. These can tint your windows yellow or brown.
- To protect your isinglass curtains from UV degradation and extend their life optical clarity, apply product made for isinglass every 4 to 6 weeks.
- To prevent permanent burn marks from the sun’s reflection, do not let your isinglass windows rest against stainless steel or aluminum rails. Invest in offset spacers or cotton covers for the rails.
- Store your isinglass windows at home during winter lay-up, if possible.
