Care Instructions for Nano-Tex® Resists Spills Fabrics

Spills and stains should be removed from fabrics as soon as possible. While staining will be minimized on Nano-Tex® enhanced fabrics, cleaning may still be necessary. If spills are removed immediately, there will be minimal to no staining on the fabric. If spills go unnoticed for a period of time and staining occurs, the Nano-Tex enhanced fabric will clean easily and quickly with proper cleaning procedures.

  • Wipe off with clean water and a dry clean cloth if needed.
