APPEARANCE CARE
Care and Cleaning
of Interior Soft Trim
Dust and loose dirt that accum-
ulate on interior fabric trim should
be
removed
frequently
with
a
vacuum cleaner, whisk broom or
soft brush. Vinyl
or
leather trim
should be wiped clean with a
damp cloth. Normal cleanable trim
soilage, spots or stains can be
cleaned with the proper use of trim
cleaners available through General
Motors dealers or other reputable
supply outlets. Before attempting
to remove spots or stains from
up-
holstery, determine as accurately
as
possible the nature and age of
the spot or stain.
Some spots or
stains can be removed
satisfactor-
ily with water or mild soap solu-
tion (refer to accompanying "Re-
moval of Specific Stains").
For
best results, spots or stains should
be removed
as
soon
as
possible.
Some types of stains or soilage
such
as
lipsticks, some inks, cer-
tain types of grease, mustard, etc.,
are extremely difficult and, in some
cases, impossible to completely
re-
move. When cleaning this type of
stain or soilage, care must be taken
not to enlarge the soiled area.
It
is
sometimes more desirable to have
a small stain than an enlarged stain
as
a result of careless cleaning.
