Additional Upholstery Information
Cleaning & Care
Following are recommendations for ongoing maintenance of upholstery fabrics:
• Vacuum the fabric periodically to remove accumulated dirt and dust. The frequency of this and any other routine maintenance is determined by end use conditions.
• Turn and rotate loose cushions on a regular basis.
• Blot fresh spills immediately.
• Ensure that the fabric is adequately rinsed after cleaning, as residual cleaning agents may accelerate soiling.
• Have the fabric professionally cleaned whenever large stains or an overall soiled condition occurs. It is recommended that the upholstery fabric be professionally cleaned on an annual basis.
• Do not remove cushion covers to launder or dry clean.
Some fabric cleaning methods may cause damage to underlying materials used in upholstered furniture. Contact the furniture manufacturer for recommendations and precautions prior to attempting any of the following procedures. Always follow the manufacturer's recommendations for using upholstery cleaning products, and always pretest an inconspicuous area of the fabric for colorfastness to the cleaning agent.
Clean with water-based cleaning agents, foam or pure, water free solvents.
Bleach Cleanable - May be cleaned with a 10% bleach-to-water solution. Rinse well after cleaning. May also be disinfected with hydrogen peroxide, alcohol, and quaternary ammonium (quat) based cleaners.
Sample Ordering

Non-Express colors can be ordered from Guilford of Maine.
Mixed Upholstery Orders
Mixed upholstery orders are encouraged. If one upholstery is used on the seat and a different upholstery is used on the back, pricing is calculated by averaging the grades of the two upholsteries and rounding up. If a product has 3 or 4 upholstery locations, the grade for each location is added together then averaged. All decimals are rounded up to the next higher grade.
Example 1: Seat at Grade 4 and back at Grade 2, the chair will be priced at Grade 3.
Example 2: Seat at Grade 4, back and arm panels at Grade 10, the chair will be priced at Grade 8. (10+10+4 = 24)
For any other special combinations or requirements, please inquire.
