Upholstery: Use the Rectangular Floor/Carpet Brush with a clean White Terry
Cloth Towel. Use fast, light strokes, avoid getting the fabric wet. When cleaning silk,
warm up the towel and then turn off the vapor entirely before touching the fabric. If
the towel is too hot to touch with your hand, it is too hot for silk. Be patient with
stubborn spots; work on a spot gently for no more than a minute at a time, then
wait five minutes for the area to dry and repeat. Use circular movements or
back-and-forth and side-to-side movements to get all sides of surface fibers. Finish
with a brushing in one direction that will give the fabric a uniform appearance.
Caution: Always determine the color-fastness of any fabric - especially with reds
or blues - by taking a clean, moist, warm towel and gently rubbing a small
inconspicuous area. If color comes off on the towel, you may need to have the
piece dry-cleaned.
Window, Glass Surfaces, and Mirrors: Use the Glass and Tile Squeegee. Work
with the vapor jet down using top to bottom movements. Use the squeegee with the
vapor off to clear the water from the glass. To do this without leaving streaks, use
lateral movements from the top to the bottom of the surface.
Fiberglass or Stainless Steel Surfaces: Use the Rectangular Floor/Carpet Brush
or Concentrator Nozzle. Slowly move the brush over the surface to be cleaned. The
vapor will emulsify the dirt and grease on the surface. Follow behind with a terry
cloth towel attached to the brush to remove excess moisture and residue.
Tip: An old idea for polishing stainless steel is to wipe it down with soda water after
it is cleaned.
Soap Scum: Soap scum dissolves almost immediately under a combination of heat
and moisture. Rinse the surface with a small amount of water afterwards or go back
over it once more with a clean white terry cloth towel.
Note: Soap scum sometimes will develop a hard surface from waterborne
minerals. If this is the case, use the Rectangular Floor/Carpet Brush with no towel
first to break up this surface - or spray or wipe first with lemon, vinegar or soda
water to soften the minerals.
Moving too slowly can dry out the soap scum and cause it to granulate on the
surface. The surface will have a gritty feel. If this happens, apply vapor to the
surface with the open brush again and re-clean.
Garden Furniture: Use any of the brushes depending on the surface area. Work
quickly when cleaning resin on outdoor furniture.
Blinds: Use the Small Detail Brush to clean blinds. Move the brush over the
surface, allowing enough time for the vapor to penetrate. W
ork quickly on PVC
blinds. Test for color fastness on fabric blinds before using.
Bathroom Areas: To clean the bathtub or shower area, use the Small Detail Brush
for grout, shower door tracks, hard to get areas and heavily soiled areas.
