Spray on Chairs
« on: February 03, 2010, 04:02:21 pm »
Stopped on busy town main road this morning picking up keys from a let agent. Just got back into van and the owner of a ladies hairdresser came to the van.
The chairs in his salon, plastic leather look-a-like, had hair spray and other sprays on the arms and back.
He wanted to know if I could clean them. I asked did he know if the sprays he used were acidic or alkaline and he said more then likely acidic.
Anyone else come across this - and what would you use.

I did go into the shop and tried a towel with some Ultrapac Renovate on and it seemed to do the job (I tested on an underneath piece first).

He wants his house carpets cleaned as well. Good that the van was signed up or he would not have known what trade I was and I wouldnt have got the contact.
