Do not use gasoline, alcohol, benzene,
acetone, carbon tetrachloride, deicer
fluids or glass cleaning components on
plastic surfaces as they will soften the
plastic and cause crazing.
Avoid rubbing the plastic surface with a dry cloth
since this can cause scratches and build up an electric
static charge that will attract dust particles. If
scratches are visible after removing dirt accumula-
tions, finish the plastic with a quality grade of com-
mercial wax. Apply wax in a thin even coat and care-
fully buff out with a soft cloth. Do not buff or polish
in one area for more than a brief period of time; heat
generated by rubbing the surface may soften the plastic
and produce visual distortion.
REPAIR OF WINDSHIELD AND WINDOWS. Windows
that are extensively damaged should be replaced rather
than repaired, since even a carefully patched area
will still not be as optically or structurally accept-
able as the original surface.
Change 2
All repairs to plastic window surfaces shall be made
in accordance with FAA Advisory Circular AC No:
43.13-1.
