Fabric Cleaning Tips

     Blot (do not rub) spills immediately with a clean cloth. Dried spills are more difficult to remove.

   Keep the cleaning code for your fabric in a safe place and refer to it. This will determine the type of cleaner to use.

   Follow cleaning instructions on the cleaning agent.

  Test all cleaners on hidden area for color fastness.

   Keep a small spill small. Work lightly from center to edges, feathering the edges by dampening them and irregularly blotting quickly to avoid rings.

   Shop secret---to remove blood, if still wet, use the saliva of the person who it belongs to.

   Shop secret---after checking for color fastness on a hidden area, use lacquer thinner on a cloth the same color as the stained fabric.   Apply to cloth and rub gently. To prevent rings use a hair dryer on cool to dry.
