General and Healthcare Cleaning Guide
Advanced Stain Resistant Molecular Structure
​
Sileather is inherently stain-resistant thanks to our proprietary Siotech® silicone formula. As shown in the graphic below, our 100% silicone coating has very low surface tension and small molecular gaps, which make stains unable to penetrate Sileather fabrics.
​
General cleaning method:
​
-
Use a soft cloth to remove as much of the stain as possible.
-
Apply clean or soapy water to the stain with a cloth or sponge, and gently wipe until the stain disappears.
-
Wipe with a clean damp cloth and let air dry. The residue left by cleaners may shorten the service life and affect the appearance of the product and should be removed as soon as possible.

Caution
- Test any cleaning method or agent in a small, hidden, and inconspicuous area before use.
- Please use a clean, soft cloth (or sponge) that does not fade.
- Avoid the use of rough and scratchy cleaning tools.
- Alcohol and alcohol-based cleaners are combustible. Please handle with care. Use only a small amount of detergent to avoid any source of ignition. Wear protective gloves and be sure to clean in a well-ventilated area.
- Common stains can be removed with clean water. For lipstick, markers and other stubborn stains, it is recommended to use isopropyl alcohol and clean within 24 hours. It is recommended that you clean and maintain your Sileather products on a monthly basis.
- Please keep hydrocarbons, benzene solvents, and cyclosiloxane oligomers away from Sileather fabrics.
