Assembly Required
Mesh: To effectively clean your mesh textile, you must immediately remove the stain or dirt spot. To remove dirt and stains that result from everyday wear and tear, use a solution of mild soap, such as Ivory® liquid soap and water. Other options include Carbona Pet Stain Remover or Formula 409. Apply the solution over the soiled area and let it sit for approximately two minutes. Rub gently with a sponge or brush to remove the stain. Blot excess cleaner with a dry cloth and repeat at least once more to ensure total stain removal. For tougher stains, such as mustard or ketchup, use mild soap and water or Carbona Pet Stain Remover and apply the same system as stated above. Stains from certain substances, such as salad dressing, are a bit more difficult to remove because the oils within the substance penetrate the yarns of the mesh. Remove these stains quickly with soap and water or Formula 409 and rub gently with a sponge or brush to remove the stain. Blot excess cleaner with a dry cloth and repeat as needed.
Fabric: Vacuum clean frequently, ideally every week if fixed covers. Remove stains as soon as they occur, with clean warm water or sparkling water. Extraction clean when necessary. Extraction cleaning might dissolve water based glue. Pay attention to temperature and amount of leaning fluid.
