Cleaning
NOTE: Substances such as imaging gels and alcohol will not damage the vinyl
surface when immediately removed. Studies have shown that exposure
for longer than a few minutes can damage the top coat and will eventually
discolor vinyl.
NOTE: Always read manufactures instructions and warnings before using any
cleaning product or disinfectant.
The painted metal and plastic surfaces can be cleaned with normal cleaners and
disinfectant.
Clean and/or disinfect with liquid cleaner of choice being careful to
follow label instructions provided with cleaner. (Always test a small
area first to determine suitability of solution)
Wipe the surface clean with a wet cloth after applying cleaners and
disinfectant to remove excess residue buildup.
The vinyl upholstered surfaces can be cleaned in one of the following ways:
NOTE: It is recommended that the product be cleaned between patients; please
follow your facilities documented policy.
When caught quickly, most everyday stains like grease, blood and
black felt tip pens can be wiped right off. Use mild soap and water.
For more stubborn stains, a variety of concentrated and solvent
type cleansers may be used without damaging the surface
(including alcohol, naphtha and bleach), as long as they are
thoroughly rinsed off with water. Abrasive household cleaners and
steel wool should never be used.
Everyday soil can usually be removed using a soft cloth or sponge
with mild soap and water. Spills and accidents require immediate
attention for best results. In many cases, stains may be cleaned
simply with warm water alone. If the stain is allowed to set, more
concentrated cleaners may be required.
The following guide covers many of the most common staining agents. During
independent laboratory testing, many were allowed to stand for up to 40 hours
with excellent cleaning results.
Generally speaking, always start with the mildest cleaning agents first. Never use
harsh powdered abrasive cleansers or steel wool. Products containing bleach,
ammonia or alcohol (Lysol™) should be wiped from the surface with a wet cloth
after use. Residue from these products will damage vinyl surfaces
