Cleaning Product FAQs
Crypton Cleaning Products
Thanks to our superior performance technology, cleaning products are often not needed when tending to daily spills and messes. When they are, though, we highly recommend not using harsh aftermarket cleaners, and instead, using safe, Crypton-developed and endorsed, cleaning products like the ones you can find here.
- Pre-clean heavily soiled areas.
- Apply product undiluted to disinfect hard, non-porous surfaces using the pump-trigger spray device, a sponge, brush, or cloth.
- For spray applications, spray 6-8 inches from the surface. (Please do not inhale the spray.)
- The surface must remain wet with the solution for 10 minutes.
- Wipe dry or allow to air dry.

Remember, Crypton performance technology does not make furniture self-cleaning but does make care and cleanup easy. Also, white furniture will need a little extra maintenance in order to avoid dinginess. In the same way dust collects on hard surfaces, it collects on fabric as well. Weekly vacuuming and period extraction cleanings will keep your white upholstered furniture looking new for years.
