Caring for Leolux fabrics Leolux selects its fabrics with care and with the right care from you, they will remain lovely for years.
Please note: the guarantee on fabrics becomes null and void after treatment with a dirt repellent coating.
Different maintenance instructions apply to certain fabrics.
We advise vacuuming the fabric regularly using the special textile attachment, or brushing the fabric with a soft brush.
If the fabric dries out, this can result in premature wearing. To prevent the linen fibres from drying out, wipe the fabric regularly (every 4-5 weeks) with a moist towel, following the direction of the nap. Always use clean water and a clean cotton towel.
As a large proportion of the fabric is made from natural materials (Linen), Fay fabric cannot be washed. The fabric is dry-clean only. Removing stains is difficult. Do not use any liquids for this. Only use the special pH-neutral dry foam. Acidic and liquid cleaning agents can damage the fibres of the fabric. Once the area is completely dry, wipe the entire cover with a moist cloth in the direction of the nap to restore the ‘ironed’ character of the surface.
Maple is made from Chenille threads that give the surface of the fabric a subtle three-dimensional effect. This can result in shading and seat marks during use and when cleaning. These are characteristics of chenille fabrics.
We advise vacuuming the fabric regularly using the special textile attachment, or brushing the fabric with a soft brush.
Water droplets or stain cleaning can result in darker areas. Like the above-mentioned seat marks, these areas can be removed by brushing the fabric with a soft brush. First moisten the fabric evenly (across the entire surface) with a soft cloth or spray the fabric evenly with distilled water. Allow the fabric to dry completely before use.
