Using Cleaner on Fabric

1. First, try the cleaner in an inconspicuous area to

make sure the cleaner does not affect the color of
the fabric.

2. For liquids: blot the stain with a clean, soft

white cloth.

For solids: remove as much as possible and then
vacuum or brush.

3. Spray a small amount of the cleaner onto a

clean, soft white cloth. Do not apply spray directly to
the fabric.

4. Start cleaning from the seams into the stain to

avoid a ring effect.

5. Continue cleaning, using a clean area of the cloth

each time it becomes soiled.

6. When the stain is removed, blot the cleaned area

with another dry clean, soft white cloth.

7. If the cleaner leaves a ring effect, follow up with

the club soda water instructions given earlier in
this section.

Special Fabric Cleaning Problems

Stains caused by such things as catsup, coffee, tea,
milk, fruit, fruit juice, jelly, cheese, chocolate, vomit,
urine, and blood can be removed using the club soda
water instructions given earlier in this section. If an odor
lingers after cleaning vomit or urine, treat the area
with a water and baking soda solution: 1 teaspoon
(5 ml) of baking soda to 1 cup (250 ml) of lukewarm
water. Let dry.

Stains caused by oil and grease can be cleaned with an
approved GM cleaner and a clean, white cloth.

1. Carefully scrape off excess stain.

2. Clean with cool water and allow to dry completely.

3. If a stain remains, follow the cleaner instructions

described earlier.
