Don’t Forget: Polishes and Cleaners
An oft-neglected part of creating an attractive, engaging waiting and examination room environment for your office is general maintenance. You see, if you’ve been following this blog and taking its advice to heart, I’d be willing to bet your offices are full of posters and poster holders and signs and sign holders and wall mounted informational material. A suggestion box on the front desk, a donation box next to the magazine rack – you guys better be following my advice! But it can’t stop there. You need to maintain the appearance of all your plastic products. Just like you use acrylic sign and poster holders to give your posters an attractive sheen and protective sheath, you need to use plastic polishes and cleaners.
Having scratched up, dusty, dull old plastic sign holders is almost as bad as having none. Wait, scratch that. It’s worse. You want to project an air of professionalism; you’re dealing with people’s health, with people’s lives, and you expect them to trust you if your office presentation is unkempt and substandard? No way.
Novus 1 Clean and Shine is a good choice of cleaner. It “gently cleans all plastics” and removes scratches, leaving “a lustrous shine that resists fogging, repels dust and eliminates static.” Sounds pretty good, and it comes in either a 2 or 4 ounce bottle.
But if your plastics already suffer from scratches, you might want to consider going with the Novus 2 Fine Scratch Remover. A little bit goes a long way – just apply a bit to fine scratches, rub, and watch them vanish. Abrasions and general haziness will also be eliminated.
Heavy scratches on plastics can be removed with Novus 3 Heavy Scratch Remover. Again, use just a small amount to start, as this stuff is pretty powerful.
Oh, and make sure you use a polishing cloth. They’re designed to maximize the effectiveness of polishes and cleaners.
