UPHOLSTERY
Upholstery
With proper care your upholstery should give years of trouble free service. It is very important
to read the following:
• Regular (weekly) cleaning of back and seat upholstery is very important to remove body
oils which can cause hardening of the vinyl. To clean, wipe with a cloth or sponge, which
has been moistened in warm soapy water, and then dry with a soft, clean cloth. The use
of mild non-abrasive pure soap is recommended. Stubborn grime may require gentle
scrubbing with a soft brush.
Never use furniture polishes, abrasive cleaners or steel wool. Regular use of
cleaners containing hydrocarbons or similar additives may cause damage to the
vinyl and harden the surface.
• Always replace broken upholstery screws immediately to avoid possible tearing.
• Stretched, torn or split upholstery must be replaced for safety reasons
