Stain Removal Procedure - Four winns 248 Vista Owner's Manual

formed after two weeks. Carpets were tested for stain
removal by an independent laboratory. Stain removal
was effective for all 34 stains. Results are shown in
Table 1.
E. Stain Removal Procedure
Regular maintenance such as vacuuming, hosing or
washing should be performed. Most stains and mildew
are easily removed from carpet made with Olefin™ fiber
using common household cleaners.
Olefin™ fiber is so resistant to chemical attack that Clorox
Bleach™ may be used to clean up any mildew that may
result from excessive wetness.
Code for stain removal procedure (See Table 1):
“A” Apply hot water and detergent.
“B” Apply volatile dry solvent, work with bone spatula,
blot.
“C” Flush by hot water extraction.
Recommended reagents:
• Carpet detergent such as Mintex™ (Hydromaster®)
or any carpet detergent suitable for hot water ex-
traction.
• Volatile dry solvent such as Carbona™, Energene™,
or Picrin™ (Street®).
• Oily type paint remover such as nail polish remover,
Energene™ or Pyrotex™ (Street®).
• Neutral lubricant such as Streetex Spray Spotter™
(Street®) or alternate treatment with detergent and
Energene™.
