Section 5.1—Care of the Finish
The Alexia loudspeakers are hand
painted with WilsonGloss™ paint and
hand polished to a high luster. While the
finish seems quite dry to the touch, fi-
nal curing and complete hardening takes
place over a period of several weeks.
Dusting the Alexia
It is important that the delicate
paint finish of the Alexia be dusted care-
fully with the provided dust cloth. We
recommend that the following procedure
be observed when dusting the speakers:
• Blow off all loose dust.
• Using the special dust cloth
as a brush, gently whisk off any remaining loose dust.
• Shake out the dust cloth.
• Dust the finish, using linear motions in one direction parallel to the floor.
Avoid using circular or vertical motions.
Because the paint requires a period of several weeks to fully cure, we recommend
that no cleaning fluids, such as glass cleaners, be used during this initial period of
time. When the paint is fully cured, heavy fingerprints and other minor smudges may
be removed with a glass cleaner. Always use the dust cloth. Stronger solvents are not
recommended under any circumstances. Consult your dealer for further information if
required. To maintain the high luster of the finish, periodic polishing may be desired.
