6. Manteniment
The Dark Sky Shield requires minimal maintenance. Periodically inspect the shield for any accumulation of dirt, dust, or debris. Clean the exterior surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the finish. Ensure the shield remains securely attached to the lamp endoll.

This shield is not designed for spotlights or fixtures with multiple lamps or upward-facing lamps. Verify the dimensions of your lamp socket and the shield (2-7/8 inches diameter) for compatibility.
- Shield feels loose: Ensure the clips are properly engaged with the lamp socket. If the clips appear damaged or bent, the shield may not secure correctly.
