Upholstery advice please
« on: June 02, 2005, 05:06:20 pm »
Hi all,
I have a three piece suite to clean in a few days. The fibre content is as follows-
Cotton Chenille 48% Polyester 31% and 21% Viscose. Made by Parker Knoll. Normal soiling, no really bad stains.
I have told the customer that I can clean it with the truck mount. I dont use micro splitters, but good old Alltec and Prochem solutions.
Please tell me that this is ok to clean with HWE?
Any advice on this one please?
Tnx  :)
Ben

Benny,

Subject to a colour bleed test as viscose can be a bit unstable , I would think it should be a relatively straighforward clean.

Look for any evidence of previous colour run from spillages, 1001, vanish etc.

If none should be o.k

Cheers,

Doug

i agree with doug, but i would add towell down afterwards as that type of mixed fibres tend to go in many directions.a good towelling in one direction prevants that happening. this is not a tip. doug im about to a large leaflet drop in your area any good, let us know :P
listen,learn.and benefit. try. reward.and love, peace harmony.feng shui. and all that. it improves ones selling .to ones customers.reap THE HARVEST WHILST YOU CAN. and try to crush the opposition.
