Using Solvent-Type Cleaner on Fabric First, see if you have to use solvent-type cleaner at all. Some spots and stains will clean off better withjust water and~mild soap. Special Cleaning Problems Greasy or Oily Stains Stains caused by grease,oil, butter, margarine,shoe polish, coffee with cream, chewing gum, cosmetic creams, vegetableoils, wax crayon, tar and asphaltcan be removed as follows: 0 If you needto use a solvent: 0 Gently scrape excess soil from the trim material with a clean, dull knife or scraper. Use verylittle cleaner, light pressure and clean cloths (preferably cheesecloth). Cleaning should start at the outside of the stain, "feathering" toward the center. Keep changing to a clean section of the cloth. When you clean a stain from fabric, immediately dry the area with a blow dryer to help prevent cleaning a ring. (See the previousNOTICE.) Carefully scrape off excess stain. Follow the solvent-type instructions described earlier. Shoe polish, wax crayon, tar and asphalt will stain if left on a vehicle seatfabric. They shouldbe removed as soon as possible.Be careful, because the cleaner will dissolve them and may cause them to spread. Non-Greasy Stains Stains caused by catsup, coffee (black), egg, fruit, fruit juice, milk, soft drinks, wine, vomit, urine and blood can be removed as follows: 0 Carefully scrape off excess stain, then sponge the soiled area with cool water.
