Spot Cleaning Fabric Type Trim with Solvent Type
Cleaner
Before trying to remove a spot or stain from fabric, determine as
accurately as you can what kind and how old the spot or stain is. Some
spots or stains can be removed with water or mild soap solution (see
"Removal of Specific Stains"). 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 completely remove. When
cleaning this type of stain or soilage, be sure not to enlarge the soiled
area.
GM Fabric Cleaner (Solvent Type) is excellent for spot cleaning grease,
oil, or fat stains.
•
Gently scrape excess stain off trim material with a clean, DULL
knife or scraper. USE VERY LITTLE CLEANER, light
pressure, and clean cloths (preferably cheesecloth). Cleaning
should be from outside of stain "FEATHERING" towards the
center. Keep changing to a clean section of cloth.
•
When stain is cleaned from fabric, immediately dry area with an
air hose, heat dryer, or heat lamp to help prevent a cleaning ring.
(Use caution with heat dryer or lamp to prevent damage to fabric).
