Blood or Plant Residue:

cloth soaked in cool water.

TIP:
Vinyl requires periodic
cleaning to maintain its
appearance and to prevent
the buildup of dirt and
contaminants that may
permanently stain or
reduce the life of the vinyl
if left untreated. Frequency
of cleaning and procedures
used depend upon the
amount of use and the
environmental conditions
in which the vinyl is
subjected.
NOTE:
Tears or holes in the vinyl can
be temporarily covered with
clear tape to prevent further
damage. Repairs should
be made by a professional
upholstery shop. Commercial
repair products may contain
lacquers and cause the vinyl
to become brittle and more
difficult to repair.
