17.1 INTERIOR UPHOLSTERY
GENERAL POINTS
- The interior upholstery is designed for use inside the boat only.
- The fabric used inside the boat has not had any special treatment to protect it from a saline atmosphere or from UV.
- Make sure the curtains are drawn to protect the interior upholstery from exposure to sunlight.
ALCANTARA (microfibre)
Stain removal
- The fabric must be free from dust before stain removal. To do so, use a vacuum cleaner.
- Rub with a duster soaked in a solution containing ammonia diluted by 10%. Dilute to the strength appropriate for this fabric. Try it out first on a hidden area such as the hem.
If the appearance of the fabric changes, dilute accordingly.
- Scrub the Alcantara fabric in all directions, particularly on the stains.
- Rinse off the cleaning solution using a damp cloth.
- Dry in the open air.
- After taking the Alcantara fabric off, it's a good idea to use a gentle brush to bring back its softness.
- For difficult stains, dry-cleaning is recommended.
