Default Upholstery cleaner

Thought I read on one of these sites about using Westleys Bleche-Wite for cleaning tough spots on upholstery. Any input ? Thanks.

Although it might work - on white uphostery - I'd be very careful of that stuf for several reasons. First, it's got some bleach in it. If you happen to drip it on anything else (like carpet) nearby, you'll have whitre spots.

The other reason to be careful with any "aggressive" cleaner is that although it may get something clean, it generally does longer term damage to the upholstery by drying it out. If you do ue something like this, my recommendation would be to follow it up with an application of a good protectant like 303 Aerospace Protectant. This is especially true around stitching.

we had a big problem at work. had a motor break a oil cooler hose and it sprayed oil over the ithe interior. we used purple power get it from autozone alot cheaper then castrol superclean and works and i think it better then super clean, but like in prior post u better use a protectent to keep it soft and from drying out. but make sure you hose it down to completely get rid of it after using on interior .

I had good luck with a lean mix of superclean and some oxygen bleach(oxyclean or similar) doesnt ruin colors or carpet, and scrub with a good vinyl brush that makes the most difference

Bleche-Wite will work just fine on upolstery. It contains no bleach of any kind. I worked in the plant which manufactured Bleche-Wite for years and am very familiar with the formulation....

Bio-Kleen products work. The owner is a chemist and knows what works on particular materials. Using the wrong cleaner will damage your marine interior beyond repair. Give them a call. Worth your time.
