Cleaning Naugahyde
Advanced BeautyGuard Protective Finish
Cleaning is a breeze with Naugahyde brand fabric and its advanced BeautyGuard protective finish. While staining and soiling exposures are common to upholstery fabrics, most stain and soiling may be removed by using the simple cleaning methods that follow:
For Light Staining
- A solution of 10% household dish soap with warm water applied with a soft damp
cloth will remove most soiling
- If necessary, a solution of liquid cleanser and water applied with a soft
bristle brush. Wipe away residue with a water-dampened cloth.
For Heavier Soiling
Not Solved by Above Method:
- Dampen a soft white cloth with lighter fluid (naphtha) and rub gently. Rinse
with a water-dampened cloth.
- Note: Use extreme caution with this method. Complete only in a well-ventilated
area and away from any open flame.
- Note: You should try this method on an inconspicuous spot before using it on
the original stain/soiling.
For the Most
Difficult Stains Not Removed by the Above Methods:
- Dampen a soft white cloth with a solution of household bleach (sodium
hypochlorite); 10% bleach, 90% water.
- Rub gently
- Rinse with a water-dampened cloth to remove bleach concentration
- If necessary, allow a 1:10 diluted bleach solution to puddle on the affected
area or apply with a soaked cloth for approximately 30 minutes. Rinse with a
water-dampened cloth to remove any remaining bleach concentration
- Note: You should try this method on an inconspicuous spot before using it on
the original stain/soiling.
Note:
To restore luster, a light coat of spray furniture wax can be
used. Apply for 30 seconds and follow with a light buffing using a clean white
cloth.
