General Care Tips
- Re-arrange furniture and turn cushions occasionally to ensure even wear of the cushions, fillings and fabrics. Vacuum upholstery, curtains and carpets often to remove dirt and grit that can cause soiling and fibre abrasion.
- Take care when wearing clothing that could cause dye transfer such as jeans etc.
- Leading retailers recommend that you have your upholstery and furnishings professionally cleaned every 12-18 months. Retailers recommend that you use a specialist qualified cleaner.
Spot Removal Procedures
The following information is a guide to spot and stain treatment. For further information and guaranteed specialist cleaning and spot stain removal contact your local Safeclean specialist at www.safeclean.co.uk
- Before applying any cleaning or spotting solutions, pre-test on an inconspicuous area
- Solid type stains should be blotted up with a clean white absorbent material. All stains work from the outer edge to the centre of the stain
- Avoid rubbing, over agitating or too much pressure to avoid damaging the fibres
- Apply solutions A, B, C as prescribed on the chart below for each type of stain. Apply in turn using a clean white absorbent cloth, blot the recommended solution into the stain and blot dry. Follow this method for as long as the stain can be absorbed into the blotting material
- When the stain no longer transfers to the blotting material, change to the next cleaning solution procedure
- Avoid over wetting and blot the treated area as dry as possible after the application of each solution
- To avoid causing water rings, make sure that the treated area dries out evenly by feathering out the edges, or dampening the entire panel
