Fabricshield™ Advice for removing spillages and soiling :

Whilst it will help to prevent the build up of ground-in dirt and the effects of staining, follow the
advice below for general cleaning and treatment of heavy and strong stains.

  • Spillages should be treated immediately.
  • Pick up the liquid with an absorbent cloth (such as kitchen roll) without rubbing it to the textile material.
  • Work from the outside of the spillage inwards, so as to avoid spreading the liquid.
  • For dried-on, firm or softer soiling, remove the excess residue before treating the spillage area with a blunt knife or a spatula. Gently brushing off excess residue impurities has also proved to be successful with dried-on spillages.
  • Afterwards dab the spillage gently with a damp cloth or sponge, and remove any remaining spillage with an absorbent cloth, as described above. Repeat this until the spillage/stain has disappeared completely.
