MorCare™ Vinyl Properties and Characteristics:
MorCare™ has been developed to meet the
increased demands of hospital, contract and institutional use.
Chemical Resistance:
MorCare™ offers enhanced resistance to most
of the common chemicals used for sterilization and cleaning in
medical environments. MorCare™ will resist, without serious
discoloration, the repeated action of normal dilutions of
chlorine bleaches, ammonia based cleaners,
excluding Quaternary Ammonium
Compounds and Phenolics, as well as
many common oxidizing and reducing chemicals.
Bacterial Resistance:
MorCare™ protected products contain both
antibacterial and antimicrobial agents that will provide
resistance against the following bacteria when tested using the
AATCC method 147-2004:
Staphylococcus Aureus,
Klebsiella Pneumoniae.
Durability:
MorCare™ protected vinyl will keep and
maintain its new appearance under heavy duty use; far longer
then normal vinyl upholstery materials. It will withstand
500,000 double cycles using the Wyzenbeek #8 cotton duck test
method. MorCare™ offers
high resistance to normal scrapes and scuffing.
Cleanability:
With tion, it is easier to
clean freshly soiled vinyl. This is achieved by prompt energetic
washing using a mild soap solution. Previously soiled areas,
where soiling has not penetrated the vinyl surface, can be
washed and scrubbed with a sponge or soft brush using a mild
non-abrasive cleaner. Go to Top

| Care and Cleaning Instructions: |
| MORCARE™ upholstery
vinyl is easy to clean. To prevent build up of dirt and
contaminants, which may cause permanent staining, periodic
cleaning is highly suggested. The frequency of cleaning is
dependent upon the environmental conditions the MORCARE™ product
is subjected to.
ANTISEPTIC
SURFACE TREATMENT
Bleach can be
diluted up to 9:1 ratio (10%). Liberally apply diluted
disinfectant using a sponge, rinse with cold water several
times, and then wipe dry. Repeat if necessary. Federal
regulation requires that guidelines on the bleach label need to
be followed for antiseptic or antimicrobial purposes.
NORMAL
OFFICE/HOUSEHOLD USE
Most stains
can be easily cleaned using warm, soapy water and clear water
rinses. Moderate scrubbing with a medium bristle brush will help
to loosen soiling materials from the depressions of embossed
surfaces. For more stubborn stains, use the following
commercially available mild detergents in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions, Formula 409®, Fantastik®, and Mr.
Clean®. When opening a new container, please test the cleaner in
an inconspicuous area as cleaner manufacturers may change
formula without notice. Morbern cannot be responsible when
unknown changes are made by the manufacturer of the cleaner to
their formulations between 6 month verification intervals. Full
strength rubbing alcohol or mineral spirits may be tried with
caution if the commercially available cleaners do not work.
Indiscriminate use of strong solvents can severely damage or
discolor MORCARE™ vinyl.
OTHER COMMON
STAINS
Ballpoint Ink:
Ink spots will stain MORCARE™ vinyl permanently. Immediately
wipe with rubbing alcohol in a well ventilated area. This will
remove much of the stain.
Oil Based
Paint: The use of turpentine in a well ventilated area will
remove fresh paint. Dried paint must be moistened carefully with
a semi-sold gel type stripper so that the softened paint can be
gently scraped away. Rinse with soap and water. CAUTION: Direct
contact with the paint strippers will remove the print pattern
on the vinyl. Wear gloves for protection while cleaning.
Latex Paint:
Fresh paint can be wiped off with a damp cloth. Hot soapy water
will normally remove dried latex.
Tar, Asphalt:
Remove immediately, prolonged contact will result in a permanent
stain. Use a cloth lightly dampened with mineral spirits or
kerosene and rub stain gently, working from the outer edge of
the stain towards the center in order to prevent spreading.
Rinse with soap and water.
Crayon,
Mustard, Ketchup: Sponge with mild soap and water. For Stubborn
stains that have set, use a cloth soaked in diluted mild
detergent with gentle rubbing. Any remaining stain should be
washed with diluted bleach. Rinse with
cold water.
Chewing Gum:
Scrape off as much as possible with a dull knife. Rubbing with
an ice cube will assist and make it easier to remove when
scraping. The remaining gum should be removed in a well
ventilated area using a cloth saturated with mineral spirits.
Use light rubbing, rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Lipstick,
Grease, Oil, Shoe Polish: Apply small quantity of mineral
spirits with a soft cloth and gentle rubbing. Take care not to
spread the stain by smearing it beyond its original source.
Immediate removal of shoe polish is suggested or permanent
staining will occur. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Candy, Ice
Cream, Fruit Stains, Liquor, Wine, Soft Drinks: Use clear,
lukewarm water and a sponge repeatedly. Loose material should be
gently scraped away with a dull knife. Any soiled area remaining
after drying should be gently rubbed with a cloth spotted with a
small quantity of alcohol. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Blood: Rub out
any spots with a clean cloth soaked in cool water. If stubborn
spots remain, use household ammonia and rinse repeatedly with
clean, wet cloth. Do not use hot water or soapsuds, this will
set the stain.
Nausea Stains:
Sponge the stain area with soapy water containing diluted bleach
until the stain is removed. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Urine Stains:
Sponge with soapy water containing a small amount of household
ammonia. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Surface
Mildew: Wash with diluted bleach, use a soft brush for stubborn
growth. Rinse repeatedly with clear, cold water.
