Window, Glass Surfaces and Mirrors
Use the window squeegee. Work with the steam on using top to bottom movements. Use the squeegee with the steam to clear the water from the glass. To do this without leaving streaks, use lateral movements from the top to the bottom of the surface.
Fiberglass or Stainless Steel Surfaces
Use the detail brush. Slowly move the brush over the surface to be cleaned. The steam will emulsify the dirt and grease on the surface. Follow behind with a 100% cotton towel to remove excess moisture and residue.
Tip: An old idea for polishing stainless steel is to wipe it down with seltzer soda water after it is cleaned.
Soap Scum
Soap scum dissolves almost immediately under a combination of heat and moisture. Rinse the surface with a small amount of water afterwards.
Note: Soap scum sometimes will develop a hard surface from waterborne minerals. If this is the case, use the detail brush to break up this surface - or spray or wipe first with lemon, vinegar or seltzer soda water to soften the minerals.
Moving too slowly can dry out the soap scum and cause it to granulate on the surface. The surface will have a gritty feel. If this happens, apply vapor to the surface with the detail brush again and re- clean.
Bathroom Areas
To clean the bathtub or shower area, use the detail brush for grout, shower door tracks, hard to get areas and heavily soiled areas. The window squeegee will be the most efficient way to clean the rest of the area. Allow plenty of time for the heat to penetrate the surface. This is especially helpful in the shower area if there is tile or grout.
To clean sanitary fixtures, use concentrator nozzle with or without detail brush.
To clean the sink and faucets, use detail brush.
Blinds
Use the detail brush to clean blinds. Move the brush over the surface, allowing enough time for the vapor to penetrate. Work quickly on PVC blinds. Test for color fastness on fabric blinds before using.
Refrigerator - Use the concentrator nozzle alone to blow away dirt in the ice machine and on door seals. The vapor will not dry out or crack the seals as chemicals often do. Can openers and other kitchen equipment can be easily cleaned with the detail brush on the concentrator nozzle to get into all the nooks and crannies.
To clean microwaves or other small appliances use the detail brush for small areas.
Note: When cleaning small electrical appliances always unplug them from outlet before cleaning.
Clothing
A steam cleaning system is excellent for removing wrinkles from fabrics. Simply “vaporize” the surface from a distance
Upholstery
Use the garment diffuser head with the cleaning bonnet. Use fast, light strokes, avoid getting the fabric wet. Be patient with stubborn spots; work on a spot gently for no more than a minute at a time, then wait five minutes for the area to dry and repeat. Use circular movements or
Caution: Always determine the color- fastness of any fabric - especially with reds or blues - by taking a clean, moist, warm towel and gently rubbing a small area as far down on the back or other out of the way place on the furniture as possible. If color comes off on the towel, you may need to have the piece dry cleaned.
