 AT> Hi Kathy
 AT> People will make the mistake of cleaning their acrylic cage with paper
 AT> towels and this is a no no. Paper towels often contain impurities that
 AT> will scratch the plexiglass. Also lava rocks and any other abrasive
 AT> toys will add to this, however there are a few products that will
 AT> remove  light scratches but not deep gouges. Mr Chauvin can recommend
 AT> the name  brand to use.The oldest acrylic cage I have is about 4 years
 AT> old and has a  few minor scratches but these can be removed. Like you I
 AT> also do not like  anything that takes away from the beauty of the bird.
 AT> Mr Chauvin has some  much older cages than we have and they look great.
 AT> It's mainly how people  clean them.
 AT> I also feel that by using acrylic cages you can sanitize the bird's
 AT> environment better than that of the wire cages. The Macaw cage is made
 AT> of  Lexan which is much stronger than acrylic. If you have any
 AT> questions  please drop a line or you can call the Chauvins (pronounced
 AT> like show  vans) at 504 876-7966 after 5pm CST.
I had been wondering if those cages were worth getting. It sounds like
they are! What do you use to clean the cages with if you do not use
paper towels?
