Care and cleaning.
Day-to-day soil. Remove ordinary dirt and smudges with a mild soap and water solution. Dry with a soft, lint-free cloth or towel. For more difficult stains follow the instructions on special cleaning problems. The use of vinyl “conditioners” or “protectants” is not required nor are these recommended for use on Boltaflex vinyl upholstery.

Special cleaning problems.
Although vinyls are resistant to most common stains, some fabric dyes have the ability to create a permanent stain. To minimize any problems from these and other stains, it is recommended that as soon as they are noticed all stains should be cleaned, making sure the recommended cleaning agents are used in the following order.

Step 1 cleaners:
Nonabrasive household cleaners to be used with a soft cloth or damp sponge.

  • 409® All-Purpose Spray Cleaner
  • Fantastik® Spray Cleaner
  • Rinse cleaned area with fresh water and
  • dry with a clean cloth.
Step 2 cleaners:
Solvent-type cleaner to be liberally applied with a soft cloth or damp sponge.

  • Rubbing alcohol (isopropyl alcohol)
  • Rinse cleaned area with fresh water and
  • dry with a clean cloth.

Step 3 cleaners:
Strong, active solvent cleaners such as nail
polish remover (acetone/water) to be applied with a soft cloth or damp sponge. Stain should be removed with less than six (6) rubs: if stain persists after six rubs, stain has set and probably cannot be removed. Rinse cleaned area with fresh water and dry with a clean cloth.

CAUTION:
These solvents are highly flammable. Exercise proper
care in cleaning and notify personnel in area of danger. Wear rubber gloves during all cleaning activity. Use caution in cleaning around buttons, stitching and wooden or decorative trim, since these solvents could seriously damage such areas.
