(E) Vinegar Solution: One cup white vinegar to one
cup water.
(F) Ammonia Solution: One tablespoon household
ammonia to one cup water.
(G) Spot Removal Kit: Available from retail carpet
stores or professional cleaners.
(H) Call Professional: Additional suggestions,
special cleaning chemicals or the ability to patch
the area might be available.
(I) Permanent Change: Due to the nature of the
stain, there may be color loss. The carpet has been
permanently dyed or the carpet yarns have been
permanently damaged.
NOTE: While the recommended cleaning agents have proven to
be effective, some stains may become permanent.
Various types of surfaces that vary in porosity and abrasive finishes are used in
the motorhome. These surfaces can be very difficult to protect and maintain.
Regular maintenance is all it takes to keep the tile in the motorhome looking show-
room new. Once the slide-out has been extended, be sure to keep the tile floor clean
to prevent dirt from scratching the tiles prior to retracting the slide-out.
Cleaning Tile:
Use a damp sponge mop or a cloth to clean tiles and maintain their luster. If
moderate staining occurs, cleaning with a window cleaner such as Windex should do
the job. If you prefer, you can use a mild solution of hot water and all-purpose
cleaner for tile floors, walls and countertops. Rinse with clear water and be sure to
dry with a soft cloth to prevent streaking. Avoid cleaning tile with soap. Soap
forms a film to dull the luster. Soap also promotes the growth of mildew and bacte-
ria. Do not use-powdered cleaners on unglazed tile floors. Undisssolved powder
will dull the surface. Grout sealers are available that protect the porous surfaces. If
a sealer is used, follow the sealant manufacturer guideline for application.
Additionally, never use sealers on unglazed tiles. With the exception of terracotta,
which may be oiled or waxed, you won’t need to polish or buff the tiles to maintain
their finish.
Grout:
The grout used is a two part concrete mix. It is normal for this type grout to
develop surface cracks over time. In motorhome applications due to the constant
flexing of the flooring, this process can accelerate. If the grout requires cleaning,
scrub with a plastic brush. Do not use steel wool as small particles may remain and
produce unsightly stains.
