Care of Sina Pearson Textiles Solution Dyed Nylon Fabrics
No matter how soundly constructed an upholstery fabric may be, it will not wear well if it is not cared for properly. The following care practices are key:
Soil Removal:
- Regular vacuuming and dusting removes loose dirt before it becomes imbedded in the fibers.
- Ordinary soiling is removable with mild upholstery shampoo followed by a hot water rinse using the upholstery attachment of a hot water extraction cleaning machine. It is very important to select a detergent that neither affects the upholstery fabric adversely nor leaves a sticky residue that could accelerate the resoiling rate.
Stain Removal:
- Spots should be addressed as soon as possible. Liquid spills should be blotted, using a tissue, paper towels, or a clean, colorfast cloth. Dry solid material should be scraped carefully (use a blunt instrument) and vacuumed.
- Household or commercial upholstery cleaner may be applied sparingly to the soiled areas and rubbed gently with a clean white cloth.
- Most stains can be removed by hot water extraction shampooing and individual stain treatment using conventional cleaning agents such as neutral or alkaline detergent solutions, alcohol, paint/oil/grease remover, enzyme products and dry cleaning solvents.
- The colorfast properties of solution dyed nylon allow the use of diluted household bleach without color loss to remove certain stains. A solution containing 4 parts water to 1 part household bleach is generally sufficient.
- The Upholstery Care Card provides complete step-by-step cleaning instructions and includes a list of remedies for 30 common stains.
