Tech/Engineering | | English term or phrase: Do not use strong detergent such as wax or thinner but use soft cloth | Traducción:
Benutzen Sie nicht starke Reinigungsmittel sowie … oder … sondern ein weiches Tuch. |
| | | Reinigungswachs oder Lösungsmittel | Explanation:
wax = Wachs, but I think they mean "Reinigungswachs" here. I don´t think that someone would use pure wax for cleaning???
thinner = chem. Verdünnung, Farbverdünner, Lösungsmittel oder "Pinselreiniger"

By the way, \"such as\" does not mean \"as well as\" (\"sowie\") in German, but \"for example\" (\"zum Beispiel\", \"wie beispielsweise\"). |
