Cleaning
Plastic and Painted Surfaces
The painted metal and plastic surfaces can be cleaned with normal cleaners and
disinfectant.
STEP
ACTION
1
Clean and/or disinfect with liquid cleaner of choice being careful to
follow label instructions provided with cleaner. (Always test a small area
first to determine suitability of solution)
2
Wipe the surface clean with a damp cloth after applying cleaners and
disinfectant to remove excess residue buildup.
Vinyl
The vinyl upholstered surfaces can be cleaned in one of the following ways:
The preferred method of everyday cleaning is using a soft cloth or sponge with mild
soap and water or disinfectant. Spills and accidents require immediate attention for
best results. When caught quickly, most stains such as grease, blood and felt tip pens
can be wiped right off. Mild soap and water is the preferred method; however, typical
hospital-grade antiseptic wipes work as well. For more stubborn stains, a variety of
concentrated and solvent type cleansers may be used without damaging the surface as
long as they are thoroughly rinsed off with water.
Generally speaking, always start with the mildest cleaning agents first. Never use harsh
powdered abrasive cleansers or steel wool. Products containing bleach, ammonia or
alcohol should be wiped from the surface with a wet cloth after use. Residue from these
products will damage vinyl surfaces.
