Recommended Limitations
Weight Limits
Recommendation
ZGuard food shield systems that are equipped with
a shelf are not intended to withstand heavy
weights. Glass shelves can certainly hold small
display items.
Do not exceed 75 lbs. total weight of all display
items across a three foot panel of 3/8" glass.
Cleaning Instructions
DO
• Do wipe the surface with a clean damp cloth to
remove fingerprints, dust, etc.
• Do spray with a light coating of glass cleaner to
remove grease or other dirt. Use a non-ammonia
cleaner.
DON’T
• Don't polish ZGuard with any brass polish. Your
ZGuard has a durable finish and will maintain its
finish for years if well maintained. (Polishing the
finish with a polishing agent of any kind will
destroy the coating).
• Don't scrub the surface with any abrasive
substance such as steel wool, pot scrubbers, Ajax
cleanser, Comet or similar products, as it will
remove the protective coating.
