Cleaning & Maintenance
Taking care of your Comfortel furniture & equipment
All upholstery needs some care; good housekeeping will help to prolong the life of any upholstered products. Avoid extreme temperatures. Extreme cold can make your vinyl prone to cracking, while extreme heat can cause permanent stretching. Avoid exposing your products to direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time.
Cleaning Instructions:
Clean regularly to remove body oils which cause hardening.
- Wipe with a clean colourfast cloth dampened with mild alkaline free soap and luke warm water. Do not wet excessively.
- Remove all traces of any cleaning product by wiping with fresh water and a clean cloth.
- Dry with a soft, clean cloth.
- Stubborn grime may require gentle scrubbing with a soft brush.
Do not use:
- hot or boiling water
- hydrocarbons including alcohol
- acetone
- furniture polishes
- bleach
- concentrated detergents
- abrasive powder or paste cleaners
- steel wool
- silicon or petroleum-based cleaners

A periodic inspection of all components and fasteners should be made to ensure that your salon chair is structurally intact and functioning properly.
Removing difficult stains such as professional hair colour or bleach is recommended that it is cleaned immediately.
Hair colour & bleach reacts to all surfaces the same as it does to hair. If hair colour is able to develop & penetrate the surface of the material, it may be impossible to remove.
Treat all stains promptly as per our cleaning instructions.

These materials are both sensitive to light. We’d recommend that you avoid leaving anything on the surfaces for the first 6-8 weeks, if they’re exposed to sunlight. This should help you avoid any marks or rings appearing if the furniture lightens in the sun.
