Do not use

unapproved cleaners or disinfectants on sheet products. Generally speaking soap and water hydrogen peroxide and isopropyl alcohol-based sanitizers work best as disinfectants on polycarbonate. Disinfectants containing hydroxides dimethyl benzyl or ethyl ammonium chloride ethylenediamines and hypochlorite will crack the polycarbonate sheets. Because manufacturers sometimes change their formulas without notification compatibility in perpetuity can not be presumed.
