Several areas of the motorhome can be covered in vinyl. These areas include the
dash, items of furniture and the ceiling. The care and cleaning of these areas are out-
lined in the Morbern Vinyl section below.
Morbern Vinyl:
Vinyl requires periodic cleaning to maintain its neat appearance and to
prevent the buildup of dirt and contaminants that may permanently stain
and/or reduce the life of the vinyl if they are not removed. The frequency
of cleaning depends upon the amount of use and the environmental condi-
tions in which the vinyl is subjected. The procedures used for cleaning are
dependent upon the end-use circumstances.
Normal Cleaning:
Most common stains can be cleaned using warm soapy water and clear
water rinses. Moderate scrubbing with a medium bristle brush will help to
loosen soil from the depressions of embossed surfaces. For stubborn
stains, use the following commercially available mild detergents in accor-
dance with the manufacturer’s instructions: Mr. Clean or Fantastik. Full
strength rubbing alcohol or mineral spirits may be tried cautiously as a
last resort on very stubborn stains if the above suggestions do not work.
Indiscriminate use of any solvent, or solvent containing cleaner, can
severely damage or discolor the vinyl. Stains may become permanent if
they are not removed immediately. The procedure for removal of the more
severe staining agents are outlined below.
NOTE: Detergents should never be used on a regular or repeated
basis for normal cleaning.
CAUTION: Powdered cleaners containing abrasives, steel wool
and industrial strength cleaners are not recommended for
Morbern vinyl.
Bird Excreta & Vomit Stains:
Sponge the area with soapy water containing a diluted bleach until the
stain is removed. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Urine Stains:
Sponge them with soapy water containing a small amount of household
ammonia. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Surface Mildew:
Wash with diluted bleach and use a soft brush for stubborn growth. Rinse
repeatedly with clear, cold water.
