TIP: Wearing surgical gloves during installation prevents the hands from getting
dirty.
CLASSEN polymer tiles are easy and simple
to clean and maintain. There are basically
three diff erent cleaning methods:
Immediately remove any adhesive residue that escapes from the joints during bonding
of the CLASSEN polymer tiles with a cleaning cloth and wipe with a damp cloth.
Commercially available cleaning cloths can be used for this purpose. You will find a
recommendation at www.classengroup.com/de/startseite/downloads/.
ATTENTION: Once the adhesive has dried,
removal becomes much more diff icult.
1. CLEANING DURING AND IMMEDIATE-
LY AFTER INSTALLATION: INITIAL
CLEANING OR ALSO CALLED CON-
STRUCTION AND FINAL CLEANING.
2. THE ONGOING MAINTENANCE, THE
SO-CALLED MAINTENANCE CLEAN-
ING
3. THE BASIC CLEANING, AS A CLEAN-
ING FROM TIME TO TIME OR IN CASE
OF SPECIAL DIRTINESS.
ATTENTION: It is important not to leave any adhesive residue on the wall or
floor surface and to work cleanly. Avoid wiping the surface when removing the
adhesive residue, as this will spread it over the surface as a film. As soon as the
adhesive has dried, removal is much more time-consuming than directly during
installation.
