13.2 INTERIOR
Accumulations of dirt and dust not only detract from
the appearance of the interior of your trailer but will
shorten the life of the carpets and fabrics. Weekly
cleaning and vacuuming is recommended.
1. Carpets:
See the manufacturer's carpet care guide on
how to clean soil, dirt and stains from the
carpet.
2. Upholstery:
Care should be taken when cleaning upholstery
materials in your trailer. Regular vacuuming
and wiping with clear water will take care of
most stains. Any major cleaning problems
should be undertaken by professional cleaners.
3. Spots and Stains:
Most spots and stains can be removed by
using clear warm water. To keep the stain from
spreading, start from the outside of the stain
and work toward the center.
Stains such as lipstick, grease, ink or mustard
are very hard to remove and will probably
require some professional advice or help.
4. Vinyl Fabrics:
Vinyl should be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth
using a mild detergent. Never use solvents of
any kind on vinyl surfaces.
5. Velvets:
Come with fire rating cleaning code “S”. Cush-
ion covers should not be removed and dry
cleaned. Stain guard protected.
IMPORTANT
Direct sunlight will cause fading of
upholstery and fabrics. To minimize
the effect, close drapes, blinds and
shades whenever possible.
CAUTION
Use of water-based and detergent-
based solvent cleaners may cause
excessive shrinking. Water stains
may become permanent and un-
able to be removed with solvent
cleaning agents.
6. Draperies, Curtains and Bedspreads:
These are made from a variety of fabrics and
will require the help of professional cleaners. It
should be noted that most materials will prob-
ably shrink by about five percent even when
cleaned professionally.
7. Cabinetry:
Only the finest wood products have been used
in the construction of your trailer. To clean, use
a soft cloth and a high quality wood finish
cleaning product available from your Triple E
dealer or other RV centers.
The beauty of the wood is in the natural varia-
tions in grain and density causing some differ-
ences in color and shading.
8. Walls:
As a rule, walls can be cleaned easily using
warm water and a mild soap. For easier clean-
ing of accumulated grime, a bit of rubbing
alcohol may be added to the water. Never use
solvents or abrasives.
9. Tables and Countertops:
The plastic laminate on work surfaces will resist
solvents, stains and abrasions. A coat of
furniture wax will help preserve their beauty and
make cleaning easier.
10. Sinks:
The acrylic sinks can be cleaned with warm
water and soap. Wipe dry to avoid streaks.
