Special Cleaning Problems
Although BoltaSoft upholstery treated with Pre-
Fixx protective finish is resistant to most common
stains, the dyes and pigments in some staining
agents have the ability to create a permanent stain
if not treated properly. To clean difficult stains
from upholstery treated with PreFixx protective
finish, locate the staining agent in lists below and
follow its recommended cleaning method. For best
results, treat all stains immediately.
Cleaning Tip: To determine the method
type of cleaners, the source of the stain should
be identified.
Staining Agents: Baby oil, ketchup, chocolate,
motor oil, olive oil, grape juice, urine, blood, hair
oil tonic, tea, coffee and betadine. Use Method
1.
Staining Agents: Eye shadow, crayon and grease.
Use Method 1. If stains remain, use Method 2.
Staining Agents: Tobacco tar (nicotine) perma-
nent felt tip marker, yellow mustard, lipstick,
ballpoint pen and spray paint. Use Method 1 If
stains remain, use Method 2. For stubborn stains
still remaining, use Method 3.
The recommended cleaners used in Cleaning
Methods 1, 2 and 3 are progressively more ag-
gressive. Often, it is better to begin with the least
aggressive cleaner and move the next strongest
only if the stain remains. NEVER EXCEED a stain-
ing agent's recommended cleaner or cleaning
method, however.
