Not only does SONAX Alcantara And Upholstery Cleaner remove stubborn stains from difficult to clean alcantara surfaces, it works to eliminate odor-causing molecules as well. SONAX Alcantara And Upholstery Cleaner removes stubborn cigarette and animal odor from carpet and upholstery, leaving a fresh scent.
For best results, always test a small, inconspicuous area first for colorfastness and material compatibility.
Step 1: Prep and Agitate (Stubborn Stains & Odors) For heavily soiled or odor-affected areas, we recommend pre-agitating the surface to loosen debris. Use a soft-bristled brush, such as the SONAX Intensive Cleaning Brush or a Natural Tampico Upholstery And Carpet Scrub Brush, to gently brush the area and lift embedded dirt and pet hair. You may also vacuum the area thoroughly.
Step 2: Apply the Cleaner Spray the SONAX Alcantara And Upholstery Cleaner evenly onto the dirty area. Ensure the area is slightly damp but not saturated.
Step 3: Gentle Agitation Gently work the foam into the surface using a clean, damp sponge or a Speed Master Interior Upholstery Brush for a more controlled scrubbing action, especially on Alcantara. Work in small, manageable sections.
Step 4: Dwell Time Allow the product to sit and penetrate the surface for 5 to 10 minutes. This allows the foaming agents and odor neutralizers to break down stains and neutralize molecules.
Step 5: Final Rinse and Wipe After the dwell time, rub the treated area again with a clean, damp sponge or a high-quality, all-purpose microfiber towel, like the Cobra Microfiber Detailing Cloth. This process helps to remove the released dirt and excess cleaning residue.
Step 6: Dry and Finish Allow the surface to dry completely. Once dry, vacuum the area or gently brush it to restore the nap and texture of the fabric or Alcantara.
Pro-Tip: For extremely stubborn stains or foul odors, a second application may be necessary. Repeat Steps 2 through 6 until the desired cleanliness and freshness are achieved.
