Spot Cleaning Fabric Type
Trim with Solvent Type Cleaner
Before trying to remove a spot or
stain from fabric, try to find out the
type and age of the spot or stain.
Some spots or stains can be
removed with water or a mild soap
solution. Spots or stains should
always be removed as soon as
possible.
Some types of stains or soilage,
such as lipstick, inks, and grease,
are very difficult (sometimes
impossible) to remove completely.
When cleaning this type of stain or
soilage, be sure not to enlarge the
soiled area.
Gently scrape excess stain from
the trim material with a clean,
dull knife or scraper. Use very
little cleaner, light pressure, and
clean cloths, preferably
cheesecloth. Cleaning should
start at the outside of the stain
feathering towards the center.
Keep changing to a clean
section of cloth.
When you clean a stain from
fabric, immediately dry the area
with an air hose, heat dryer,
or heat lamp to help prevent a
cleaning ring. Use caution with
heat dryer or lamp to help
prevent fabric damage.
If a ring forms, immediately
repeat the cleaning operation
over a slightly larger area with
emphasis on feathering towards
its center. If a ring still remains,
mask off surrounding trim
sections and clean the entire
soiled area with a foam type
cleaner.
See Removal of Specific
Stains.
Removal of Specific Stains
Greasy or Oily Stains Includes
grease, oil, butter, margarine, shoe
polish, coffee with cream, chewing
gum, cosmetic creams, vegetable
oils, wax crayon, tar, and asphalts.
Vehicle Care
Carefully scrape off excess
stain; then use solvent type
cleaner.
Shoe polish, wax crayons, tar,
and asphalts will stain if left on
trim; they should be removed as
soon as possible. Use care as
cleaner will dissolve them and
may cause them to bleed.
Non-Greasy Stains Includes
catsup, coffee (black), egg, fruit,
fruit juice, milk, soft drinks, wine,
vomit, and blood.
Carefully scrape off excess
stain; then sponge the stain with
cool water.
If a stain remains, use
Multi-Purpose Powdered
Cleaner (Foam type) as
previously described.
If an odor lingers after cleaning
vomit or urine, treat the area
with a water-baking soda
solution: 5 milliliters (1 teaspoon)
of baking soda to 250 milliliters
(1 cup) of lukewarm water.
