Upholstery and Stair Cleaning
Before You Begin
Fabric Code Ratings:
• W for wet clean.
• S-W for solvent-dry or wet clean.
• S for solvent-dry clean only. Do not wet clean.
Vacuum Upholstery or Stairs
Vacuum upholstery and stairs with a vacuum cleaner’s attachment tool.
Use a crevice tool for hard to reach areas such as tufts and corners.
IMPORTANT: Cleaning some upholstery fabrics with a wet cleaning
solution may damage the fabric. Know what the fabric
content is and how to clean it before using a cleaning
solution on upholstery fabrics.
Most manufacturers care code their fabrics with cleaning methods. Some very
delicate and unusual fabrics are DRY CLEAN ONLY. If in doubt of the fabric
type, call a dealer or take a cushion or arm cover to a dealer for advice.
Check the stuffing material if possible
Look inside the cushions or on the underneath side. If filling is a dark
color, it may bleed through and discolor the fabric. Most stuffing material
that is white to light yellow is colorfast and will not bleed colors through
to the fabric covering.
Test clean a hidden area
Be sure to test clean a hidden area several hours before starting to clean.
Let the test area dry completely. Inspect for changes in color, bleeding,
stretching, or shrinking. Test another area if in doubt.
Pretest for Color Fastness
Before cleaning the upholstery, we recommend testing it for color
fastness. Moisten a white towel with the cleaning solution. Test a small
area of the cushion back. Gently rub the cloth over the area. Check each
area for color bleeding. If the towel does not pick up any color, it should
be safe to use the cleaning solution on the entire area.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of injury, be extra careful when
cleaning on stairs.
To prevent the carpet shampooer/extractor from falling, do not place the
unit on stairs. It is suggested that the carpet shampooer/extractor be
placed at floor level to clean the lower portion of the stairs and be
securely placed at the top of the stairway to clean the upper portion of
the stairs.
