Apply Pyratex® LV, if stain remains, flush with water or steam then go to step 2. If stain is gone, go to step 5.

Step 2

Apply WetDry®, then flush with water or steam.

Step 3

If stain is gone, go to step 4. If stain remains, check out the helpful tips below.

Step 4

Level with Sofspot® or SPOTLESS hc. When rinsing spotting agents in drycleaning with steam or water, it is important to control moisture aka “level” to prevent spotting rings and fabric damage. To level:
a. After fabric has been rinsed and air-dried, apply leveling agent liberally to the treated areas.
b. Lightly tamp the wet area, including the fabric areas just outside the ring.
c. Do not flush, rinse, or dry.
d. Continue with the drycleaning process.

Step 5

Dryclean as you normally would.
