Directions For Using Novus Plastic Cleaners and Polishes


NOVUS POLISHES - THE PROFESSIONAL AND EXPERT CHOICE

Purchase Novus Products

We make our living working with acrylic and plexiglass sheet.   Acrylic (Plexiglass) is a relatively soft material and it scratches easily if it is not taken care of.  Plexiglass  also naturally builds up a static charge and attracts dirt and dust like a magnet.  Without the proper care the acrylic and  plexiglass sheet can be destroyed.  We offer two of the best plastic cleaners and polishes on the market today, Novus and Brillianize.

Novus is a fantastic product, it cleans and polishes all types of plastics without scratching, and leaves a lustrous shine that resist fogging, repels dust and eliminates the static charge. 

Novus #1

This is our daily water thin plexiglass/acrylic cleaner.
It gently cleans all plastics without scratching. It leaves a lustrous shing that resists fogging, repels dust and eliminates static.
*Resists finger marking
*Contains no abrasives or harsh chemicals
*Leaves a smooth, clean, greaseless shine
If the surface is extremely dirty, apply NOVUS No. 1 liberally and wipe using long, sweeping strokes. Do not use pressure at this time or large dirt particles may scratch the plastic.
Re-apply NOVUS No. 1. Polish using short, circular strokes with a clean portion of the cloth.
When surface is thoroughly clean and uniformly covered, buff to a slippery glaze with a clean portion of the cloth. Surfaces buffed to a high glaze are more resistant to dust and future scratching.
Reapply NOVUS No. 1 regularly to maintain the antistatic, smudge and scratch resistant properties.

Novus #2

Novus Plastic Polish #2 removes fine scratches, haziness and abrasions from most plastics. With repeated use, NOVUS No. 2 restores faded and discolored plastics.
It removes the damage instead of filling it in and it buffs out quickly
Observe condition of the surface to be treated. The deeper the scratches, the greater the pressure required to remove them.
If the surface is dirty, clean with NOVUS No.1 before applying NOVUS No. 2.
Shake well and test in an inconspicuous area.
Apply NOVUS No. 2 liberally. Using a clean, soft cloth, polish with a firm back-and-forth motion at right angles to the scratches. Keep the cloth saturated with polish at all times.
When the worst scratches have been polished out, reapply NOVUS No.2 uniformly in a circular motion to the entire surface using short, circular strokes and light pressure. Allow to dry to a light haze.
Using a clean portion of the cloth, buff the surface to a slippery glaze using firm, short strokes. This procedure is imperative in achieving the best results.
For heavy scratches, multiple applications of NOVUS No. 2 or application of NOVUS No. 3 may be required.
Follow with NOVUS No. 1 for best results.

Novus #3

Novus #3 removes heavy scratches and abrasions from most acrylic surfaces. Use it when damage is too severe to be restored with NOVUS No. 2 polish.
It requires the use of NOVUS No. 2 for final finishing.
It is not recommended for use on coated plastics
Shake well. Test in an inconspicuous area.
Apply NOVUS No. 3 liberally. Using a clean, soft cloth, polish with a firm back-and-forth motion at right angles to the scratches. Keep the cloth saturated with polish at all times.
Continue polishing until only fine scratches remain. Using cloth, remove all remaining polish, this is very important!
Using a clean cloth, apply NOVUS No. 2 in a circular motion uniformly to entire surface. Polish using light pressure until NOVUS No. 2 dries to a light haze.
Using a clean portion of the cloth, buff the surface clean. Follow with NOVUS No. 1 for best results.
