HOW TO CARE FOR FABRICS The following basic rules of Fabric Care have been compiled by the Decorative Fabric Association. They are only intended as a guide to the Interior Designer. A certain amount of preventative maintenance on the part of the individual homeowner is highly recommended, but the actual cleaning of draperies and upholstery must be performed by a Professional Dry Cleaner who specializes in home furnishings. 1. Fabrics must be protected from the sun. Draperies should be lined, and also interlined, when fragile fabrics are used. Shades should be drawn during the day, and awnings should be used whenever possible. Window glass magnifies the destructive elements in the rays of the sun. The winter sun and reflection from the snow are even more harmful than the summer sun. Trees and shrubbery help protect windows. Colors can fade by oxidation, "gas fading", if fabrics are kept in storage for too long a period without airing. Some colors are more fugitive than others. Impurities in the air may cause as much fading as the direct rays of the sun. 2. Use a reputable dry cleaner who specializes in home furnishings. Dust has impurities which affect fabrics. Vacuum fabrics often. Dry cleaning should be done at regular intervals before excessive soil has accumulated. Very few fabrics are washable. Interior Designers should recommend professional dry cleaners to their clients. Clients should not try to remove spots themselves. 3. Be tolerant of normal fluctuations in lengths of draperies. Few fabrics are completely stable. Fabrics breathe and absorb moisture, resulting in stretching or shrinking. It is reasonable to expect as much as a 3% change in any drapery length. In a 3-yard length (108 inches), this would amount to 3 inches up or down under various conditions. Fabrics placed over or near heating and cooling vents may react to a much greater degree. 4. Fabrics wear out - they are not indestructible. Wear will vary with the amount of use. Some weaves are stronger than others. A favorite chair will not last as long as a seldom used show piece. CLEANABILITY CODE INFORMATION 5. Applied finishes may help fabrics resist soil and stain. Finishes help fabrics resist spotting, but they are not necessarily the end-all to every problem. Light colors are likely to benefit most. Dining room chairs will soil no matter what is used. A finish does not eliminate the necessity of properly caring for fabrics. Spots should be given immediate attention by a professional dry cleaner. 6. Synthetic fibers. Synthetic yarns have made impressive strides in advancing the technology of weaving, but they cannot perform miracles. Performance will vary with the construction of the fabric and its application. 7. Multiple-width draperies, wallcoverings and bedspreads. Because fabric, unlike paper, is not a completely stable "substance", it cannot be taken for granted that, whether printed or woven, the pattern will invariably be completely "square" upon the cloth. Although, in printing, every effort is made to avoid distortion, occasionally it will exist. Therefore, when planning multiple-width fabrications, please make certain, before cutting, that pattern alignment is adequate to produce a satisfactory result. This also applies to woven fabrics. 8. In the final analysis, as it is in every industry, the integrity and experience of your supplier is your best assurance as to the integrity value of a fabric, but it must be combined with knowledge and understanding on the part of the consumer. As compiled by the Decorative Fabrics Association The following recommended cleaning codes are devised as the results of tests performed by the fabric manufacturers having adhered to the methods requested by the Joint Industry Standards Committee. They in no way intend to imply that we are in any way guaranteeing these fabrics or the cleanability thereof. HH Launder or spot clean this fabric with water-based non-chlorinated cleaning agents to remove overall soil. Do not use solvents. Do not bleach. Do not dryclean. Water temperature should not exceed 120 degrees Fahrenheit. Drying temperatures should not exceed 160 degrees Fahrenheit. To prevent overall soil, frequent vacuuming or light brushing to remove dust and grime is recommended. S Clean this fabric with pure solvents (Petroleum Distillate-based products). Professional dry cleaning is recommended. CAUTION: Use of water-based or detergent-based solvent cleaners may cause excessive shrinking. Water stains may become permanent and unable to be removed with solvent cleaning agents. To prevent overall soil, frequent vacuuming or light brushing to remove dust and grime is recommended. W Clean this fabric with water-based cleaning agents or water-based foam to remove overall soil. Many household cleaning agents are harmful to the color and life of a fabric. Professional dry cleaning is recommended. To prevent overall soil, frequent vacuuming or light brushing to remove dust and grime is recommended. X Clean fabric only by vacuuming or light brushing to prevent accumulation of dust or grime. Water-based foam or solvent-based cleaning agents of any kind may cause excessive shrinking or fading. SW For water-based stains, clean this fabric with water-based cleaning agents or water-based foam. For oil-based stains, use pure solvents (Petroleum Distillate-Based products). Professional dry cleaning is recommended. To prevent overall soil, frequent vacuuming or light brushing to remove dust and grime is recommended. Any cleaning agent should be tested in an obscure area before proceeding. 13
