Crypton® Fabric Care

Throughout the years Crypton has recommended that a mild powdered enzyme detergent mixed with water is a very effective way to clean Crypton. It still is. If you choose to use an enzyme detergent, mix 5 parts water with 1 part enzyme detergent (like Tide® / Cheer®).


Easy Cleaning Steps

  • Apply the soap and water solution to the spot.
  • Work area using soft brush or edge of spoon from outside of spot towards the middle.
  • Allow solution to work for approximately one minute.
  • Extract with clean water or blot with clean soft white towel.
  • Repeat as necessary until spot is removed.
  • Rinse with clear water and blot as a final step to rinse away soap.

Helpful Hints

  • Before cleaning, vacuum the upholstery.
  • Never spread the spot to the surrounding clean fiber.
  • Go slowly; repeat the steps until the spot is removed.
  • Do not use a stiff brush that may scratch or tear fibers in the fabric.
  • Always seek to reduce the size of the spot.
  • As always, test the soap and water solution in a hidden area before proceeding.
 

Water Extraction Cleaning

Water extraction cleaning is another fine method of thoroughly cleaning Crypton. Spots can be removed by pre-treating them with the soap solution outlined above or a pre-treatment solution from an upholstery cleaning company. Most solutions provided by these companies are acceptable for Crypton fabrics.
