Spot removal procedures (using chart)

The following information is only a guide to spot and stain treatment. For further information and guaranteed specialist cleaning and spot and stain removal, contact your local Safeclean Specialist.

Before applying any cleaning or spotting solutions, pre-test on an inconspicuous area.

• Solid type stains should be gently scraped and lifted off the surface.

• Liquid stains should be blotted up with a clean white absorbent material.

• All stains work from the outer edge to the centre of the stain.

• Avoid rubbing, over agitating or too much pressure to avoid damaging the fabric fibres.

• Apply solutions A, B, C as prescribed on the chart for each type of stain. Apply in turn using a clean white absorbent cloth, blot the recommended solution into the stain and blot dry. Follow this method for as long as the stain can be absorbed into the blotting material.

• When the stain no longer transfers to the blotting material, change to the next cleaning solution in the procedure.

• Avoid over wetting and blot the treated area as dry as possible after the application of each solution.

• To avoid causing water or ring marks, make sure that the treated area dries out evenly by feathering out the edges, or dampening the entire panel.
