Normal Office/Household Use:
Most stains can be easily cleaned using warm,
soapy water and clear water rinses. Moderate scrubbing with a medium bristle
brush will help to loosen soiling materials from the depressions of embossed
surfaces. For more stubborn stains, use the following commercially available
mild detergents in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Full
strength rubbing alcohol or mineral spirits may be tried with caution if the
following cleaners do not work. Indiscriminate use of strong solvents can
severely damage or discolor MOR-GUARD vinyl.

OTHER COMMON STAINS:
Ballpoint Ink: Ink spots will stain MOR-CARE vinyl permanently. Immediately
wipe with rubbing alcohol in a well ventilated area. This will remove much
of the stain.
Oil Base Paint: The use of turpentine in a well ventilated area will remove
fresh paint. Dried paint must be moistened carefully with a semi-solid gel
type stripper so that the softened paint can be gently scraped away. Rinse
with soap and water. Caution: Direct contact with paint strippers will
remove the print pattern on the vinyl. Wear gloves for protection while
cleaning.
Latex Paint: Fresh paint can be wiped off with a damp cloth. Hot soapy water
will normally remove dried latex.
Tar, Asphalt: Remove immediately. Prolonged contact will result in a
permanent stain. Use a cloth lightly dampened with mineral spirits or
kerosene and rub the stain gently, working from the outer edge of the stain
towards the center in order to prevent spreading. Rinse with soap and water.
Chewing Gum: Scrape off as much as possible with a dull knife. Rubbing with
an ice cube will assist and make it easier to remove when scraping. The
remaining gum should be removed in a well ventilated area using a cloth
saturated with mineral spirits. Use light rubbing, rinse thoroughly with
clean water.
Lipstick, Grease, Oil, Shoe Polish: Apply a small quantity of mineral
spirits with a soft cloth and gentle rubbing. Take care not to spread the
stain by smearing it beyond its original source. Immediate removal of shoe
polish is suggested or permanent staining may occur. Rinse thoroughly with
clean water.
Candy, Ice Cream, Fruit Stains, Liquor, Wine, Soft Drinks: Use clear
lukewarm water and a sponge repeatedly. Loose material should be gently
scraped with a dull knife. Any soiled area remaining after drying should be
gently rubbed with a cloth spotted with a small quantity of alcohol. Rinse
thoroughly with clean water.
Blood: Rub out any spots with a clean cloth soaked in cool water. If
stubborn spots remain, use household ammonia and rinse repeatedly with a
clean, wet cloth. Do not use hot water or soapsuds, as this will set the
stain.
Nausea Stains: Sponge the stained area with soapy water containing a diluted
bleach until the stain is removed. Rinse thoroughly with 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, use a soft brush for stubborn
growth. Rinse repeatedly with clear, cold water.
