CARE OF CEILING FABRIC
While using your coach, your ceiling fabric
may become soiled and require spot cleaning
from time to time. The following information is
provided as a guideline for care and cleaning of
ceiling fabrics used in your coach. (See cleaning
chart below.) These materials are made from
polypropylene or polyester synthetic fibers, so
they clean very well with virtually no damage to
the color or fabric itself.
Most commercially available carpet and
upholstery cleaners will do an excellent job
removing stains. From time to time, additional
cleaning methods may need to be used to remove
stubborn or difficult stains.
NOTE:In many cases listed above, repeated steps may be required to fully extract contaminant from
material. Items listed above with (*) may also be removed through steam extraction method by a
professional cleaner or service.Always check to see that the cleaner used will not cause damage
to the material or fabric by testing on an area out of sight.
