Care Instructions

Remove surface dust and dirt by brushing the cover with soft brush and/or soft cloth. A document cleaning pad can be used to remove dirt and dust that is stuck to the surface. Dry cleaning sponges, also known as dirt erasers are made of vulcanized rubber and are effective in removing many types of stains from the surfaces of cloth books. Absorbene, a putty that pulls dirt and stains out of the fabric surface, also works well. Follow directions on the products that you use.
