Tower Cab Shades. The cleaning of sunshades manufactured by Plastic-View Transparent Shades, Inc., and installed in the ATCT operations areas shall follow the manufacturer’s recommended cleaning and maintenance procedures which are as follows:

(1) Monthly. The bottom twelve (12) inches of the shade is the area of part of the shade most susceptible to accumulating dust and other impurities and shall be dusted or cleaned once a month (or upon request). The dusting or cleaning of each entire shade shall be accomplished back and front using a soft cloth such as a chamois or diaper (or similar type cloth) that has been dampened with a mild cleaning liquid such as “Product 409,” “Mirror Glaze,” “Windex,” or any similar type plastic cleaner. When dusting, the worker should wear clean cloth gloves or keep a soft cloth on both hands to prevent any smudging of the shades with fingerprints.

(2) Monthly. To prevent a “cake” type buildup on the shades and a loss of transparency, the entire shade shall be thoroughly dusted and cleaned at least once a month. Dusting and cleaning should be accomplished, using a soft cloth dampened with a cleaning liquid as specified in “Weekly” cleaning above.

(3) Cleaning Procedures.

a. Tiny areas (less than one square foot at a time) must be worked in a circular motion.

b. Squirt cleaner onto shade, rub hard with soft cloth without crinkling or denting shade, usually by pushing it up against the window. If the worker is unable to clean the shades in their normal positions, the shades shall be removed for cleaning. Extreme caution shall be used to prevent the scratching, wrinkling, or otherwise damaging of the plastic material. If so removed, each shade shall be returned to its original position.

c. Dry immediately with a soft cloth such as a chamois or diaper (or similar type cloth). Some cleaners will “milk-up” if allowed to dry on the shades.

(4) Other Manufacturer’s Shades. Sunshades installed in ATCT’s, FSS’s, and IFSS’s that are manufactured by companies other than Plastic-View Transparent Shades, Inc., shall be cleaned using the individual manufacturer’s instructions and recommendations.
