HINTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Processing of artificial leather UPHOLSTERY TRADE The synthetic leather decovin® allows for problem-free processing with all techniques commonly used in the upholsterer trade. These include: Sewing, gluing, stapling, nailing and high frequency welding. MARKING & ADHESIVES Mark with chalk or pencil only; do not use pens or markers as ink might penetrate through to the surface. Do not use solvent-based adhesives, as these might cause migrations and the separation of the backing layer. CONFECTION Do not use leather sewing needles in order to avoid harming the surface. Do not use this synthetic leather for exposed edges or piping as it might easily be damaged during use. UPHOLSTERING Note that the stretch values differ for warp and weft when working with this material. Use a padding of high quality foam or fleece to protect the material from the structural elements. PROFESSIONAL HANDLING OF ARTIFICIAL LEATHER Cleaning & Care CLEANING For basic cleaning it is enough to regularly wipe the material with a normal damp cotton cloth or a soft brush. When there are heavier stains you can add a mild soap water solution. Always refer to the manufacturer's dosage instructions and test the product first on a concealed spot. Afterwards remove detergent residue with tepid water and rub dry with a soft cloth. STAIN REMOVAL Do not use cleaners or care products which are abrasive or contain solvents, alcohol, fat or oil. Stains like oil, fat, coffee and ink, as well as rub off from textiles, must be removed right away, as they can penetrate into the material. decovin® cannot be chemically cleaned. 1 Downloads Processing and care instructions decovin® IN IHRER NÄHE Vertriebspartner finden SEARCH SIGN UP FOR NEWSLETTER PRODUCTS Curtains Upholstery materials Winter Home COMPANY Vision & values Sustainability Brand portfolio Jobs Contact Distributer NEWS Novelties Success Stories Impressum Legal notice © 2021 Winter Creation.
