gently rub the surface with the dampened cloth. Wait ten minutes and check for colour
removal or bleed with white paper towel or cloth. If surface has more than one colour, check all
colours.
NOTE: When cleaning entire floor, move furniture out of area to be cleaned. For furniture too
heavy to move, place aluminium foil or wax paper under legs. This will prevent wood finishes from
staining carpet. Pin up furniture skirts or curtains.
