QUALITY CONTRACT FABRICS Home About B Safe Products Fabric Collections Colors Contact All of the Tahoe upholstery fabrics are produced with a factory applied protective finish called Imperviseal. This finish repels the soils and stains common to the real world environment. This protective finish is fluorocarbon based, giving optimum protection against spills of every kind, whether they are water based like wine and coffee, or whether they are oil based like lipstick and motor oil. This special cured-in-place finish uses state of the art chemistry to form a barrier of Fluorine atoms around each fiber. This barrier resists wetting by liquid spills and even reduces the attractive forces of dust and dry soil, making dirt easier to remove with a vacuum. The comfort and value of our luxurious, breathable fabrics are attractive to consumers versus solid surface coverings. With our protective finish and simple cleaning steps, the upholstery is kept looking new longer. When spills do happen, cleanup is made easy, restoring that like new look. *Download PDF version HERE ™ Tahoe LLC announces their new performance finish.
