Rinse the section with a clean, wet sponge.
Wipe
off
what's left with a slightly damp paper towel or cloth.
Then dry it immediately with an air hose, a hair dryer or a heat lamp.
Wipe with a clean cloth.
Using Solvent-Type Cleaner on Fabric
First, see if you have to use solvent-type cleaner .at all. Some
spots
and
stains will clean off better with just water and mild soap.
If
you need to use
it,
then:
Gently scrape excess soil 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" toward the center. Keep changing
to a clean section of the
cloth.
When you clean a stain from fabric, immediately
dry the area with an air
hose, hair dryer, or heat lamp to help prevent a cleaning ring. (See
previous NOTICE.)
Special Cleaning Problems
Greasy or Oily Stains: Like grease, oil, butter, margarine, shoe polish, coffee
with cream, chewing gum, cosmetic creams, vegetable oils, wax crayon, tar
and asphalt.
,
Carefully scrape off excess stain.
Then follow the solvent-type instructions above.
Shoe polish, wax crayons, tar and asphalt
will stain if left on a vehicle
seat fabric. They should be removed as soon as possible. Be careful,
because the cleaner will dissolve them and may cause them
to bleed.
Non-Greasy Stains: Like catsup, coffee (black), egg, fruit, fruit juice, milk,
soft drinks, wine, vomit, urine and blood.
Carefully scrape off excess stain, then sponge the place with cool water.
I f a stain remains,
follow the foam-type instructions above.
