HELP! Cleaning an acrylic platter
« on: 21 Nov 2009, 10:53 pm »
Hello,
I've got a bit of an aesthetic problem... my nice big acrylic platter on my VPI has a couple large greasy finger prints from the barring grease.

Anybody got cleaning tips? i'd really hate to make it worse...

I clean all of my acrylic platters using a soft sponge and warm water/dish detergent solution. Follow up by flushing the surfaces with clear water and it will be spotless. You run the risk of scratching it if you use windex or alcohol and get a little over ambitious with the scrubbing hand.
