Upholstery
Certain household cleaners, powdered abrasives, steel wool, and industrial cleansers can cause damage and
discoloration and are not recommended.
Dry cleaning fluids and lacquer solvents/acetone (for example, nail polish remover) should not be used as they
will remove printed pattern and/or gloss.
Waxes should be used with caution as many contain dyes or solvents that can permanently damage the
protective coating.
This chart contains methods for removing common stains and soils:
A. Medium-soft brush, warm soapy water. Rinse. Dry.
B. Household cleaner such as Fantastik.
C. One tablespoon ammonia, one-fourth cup hydrogen peroxide, three-fourths cup water applied with medium
soft brush. Rinse. Dry.
D. Wipe or scrape off excess (chill gum with ice first).
E. Denatured Alcohol. Rinse. Dry.
F. Follow instructions of stain agent manufacturer.
