Vinyl
Several areas of the motorhome, such as the
dash, ceiling and items of furniture, may be
covered in vinyl. The care and cleaning of these
areas are as follows:
Normal Cleaning:
Most common stains can be cleaned using
warm soapy water and a clear water rinse.
Moderate scrubbing with a medium bristle brush
will help to loosen soil from the depression
of embossed surfaces. For stubborn stains use
the following commercially available mild
detergents in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions: Mr. Clean or Fantastik®.
Full strength rubbing alcohol or mineral spirits
may be tried cautiously as a last resort on very
stubborn stains if the above suggestions do
not work. Indiscriminate use of any solvent, or
solvent containing cleaner, can severely damage
or discolor the vinyl. Stains may become
permanent if they are not immediately removed.
NOTE
Detergents should never be used on a
regular or repeated basis for normal
cleaning.
CAUTION
Powdered cleaners containing abrasives,
steel wool and industrial strength
cleaners are not recommended for vinyl.
Bird Excreta & Vomit Stains:
Sponge the area with soapy water
containing a diluted bleach until the stain
is removed. Rinse thoroughly with clean
water.
Urine Stains:
Sponge with soapy water containing a
small amount of household ammonia.
Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Surface Mildew:
Wash with diluted bleach and use a
soft brush for stubborn growth. Rinse
repeatedly with clear, cold water.
Ballpoint Ink:
Wipe the stain immediately with rubbing
alcohol in a well ventilated area.
WARNING
If flammable solvents such as alcohol,
turpentine or varsol are used for
cleaning, use only small quantities
while in a well-ventilated area. Exercise
proper caution by notifying any persons
in the area. Keep away from any ignition
source. Always wear protective gloves.
Oil-Base Paint:
Use turpentine in a well ventilated area to
remove any fresh paint. Dried paint must
be moistened using a semi-solid, gel-type
stripper. The softened paint can be gently
scraped away. Rinse with soap and water.
CAUTION
Lacquer solvent will cause immediate
irreparable damage to the vinyl. DO
NOT use wax on vinyl upholstery as it
will cause premature embrittlement and
cracking. Dilute chlorine bleach before
using. Never use full strength bleach.
Paint strippers will remove the print
pattern and damage the vinyl if it comes
in direct contact.
Latex Paint:
Fresh paint can be wiped off with a damp
cloth. Hot soapy water will normally
remove dried latex.
Tar or Asphalt:
Remove immediately. Prolonged contact
will result in a permanent stain. Use a
cloth lightly dampened with mineral
spirits and rub the stain gently, working
from the outer edge of the stain toward
the center to prevent spreading. Rinse
with soap and water.
Crayon, Mustard or Ketchup:
Sponge with mild soap and water. For
stubborn stains that have set, use a cloth
soaked in diluted mild detergent with
gentle rubbing. Any remaining stain
should be washed with diluted bleach.
Rinse repeatedly with cold water.
Chewing Gum:
Scrape off as much gum as possible using
a dull knife. Rub the gum with an ice
cube to harden and for easier removal.
In a well ventilated area, use a cloth
saturated with mineral spirits and gently
rub the remaining gum. Rinse thoroughly
with clean water.
