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.
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.
Finally, if needed, clean lightly with Fabric Cleaner (Solvent type).
Combination Stains – Includes candy, ice cream, mayonnaise, chili
sauce and unknown stains.
Carefully scrape off excess stain; then clean with cool water and
allow to dry.
If stain remains, clean it with Fabric Cleaner (Solvent type).
