General tips for stains
General Tips for Cleaning Fabrics Treated with DuPont™ Teflon® fabric protector
◆ Always treat stains promptly.
◆ Sponge the stain, never rub. A gentle blotting action with an absorbentcloth or sponge is most effective. Work inwards from the outside edges to avoid spreading the stain.
◆ Blot up wet or oil-based spills quickly with an absorbent cloth, tissue or sponge. For solid or semi-solid spills,
lift off excess before treating, using a dull knife or spatula.
◆ If the stain has already dried, gently brush off any excess material, then dab gently with a damp cloth or sponge until it disappears.
◆ Never try to remove the stain with household detergents.
◆ Vacuum carpets and upholstery regularly to remove accumulated dirt, which can fade colors and accelerate wear. When vacuuming upholstery, use special brushes and nozzles provided for more effective cleaning.
◆ It is recommended to have carpets and furnishings professionally cleaned from time to time.
◆ Never use water or liquid detergents on velvets.
Important! Before cleaning or treating stains, see manufacturer’s care instructions. When removing a stain, test any stain-removing product (including water) on a hidden part of the furnishing to ensure fabric and/or color is not affected. For large or serious stains, consult a professional upholstery cleaner.
