Cleaning Waterproof Upholsteries
This product is not intended for outdoor applications. Do not remove cushion covers and wash either by hand or machine, or place in dryer. Please do not allow stains or spills to spread or be forced onto the fabric.
General Maintenance
Vacuum fabric regularly to avoid dust build-up.
Rotate cushions where possible to distribute wear.
Attend to spills immediately - the sooner cleaned, the better the result.
Hints
- Before cleaning, vacuum the upholstery.
- Avoid spreading the spot to surrounding clean areas.
- Go slowly, repeat the steps until the spot is removed.
- Test the cleaner in an inconspicuous area before proceeding.
- Detergent residue tends to 'mask' the fabric's liquid resistance. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning.
DO NOT use solvents.
Cleaning Directions
- If the spot has dried, try lightly brushing or scraping off the residual. Wipe with water.
- If liquid, sponge off excess.
- Using a cleaning sponge, wash face of fabric with plain water or mild soap solution. Powdered enzyme detergent mixed with water is the preferred product (or the appropriate Crypton® Care Upholstery Stain Remover). Customary upholstery shampoo, water based cleaning products and mild germicidal detergents may also be used.
- For stubborn stains a liquid detergent such as radiant mixed with water or Crypton® Care Upholstery Stain Remover, may be applied in a gentle manner, using a soft brush in a vertical fashion. Do not scrub.
- Please make certain that all cleaning products are completely rinsed off the fabric, as failure to do so may cause a loss of repellent properties.
NB Avoid using bleach, which can fade colours,
Do not use any products that contain highly toxic tetrachloride.
We recommend that you do not use any cleaning agent without first testing in a hidden area.
As dye lots may vary from batch to batch, colour matching to previous deliveries or samples cannot be guaranteed.
