Leida Glez Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 The canvas of my millenium has been stained with oil from the machine. How can I clean it? I tried to clean the area and shrunk the canvas by the water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimerickson Posted January 27, 2017 Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 Leida: I would try and remove all the oil from your leader(s) so that it would not rub off on any fabric you use on your machine. Once you get if all off, I would not worry about the stains on the leaders. They are only cosmetic and don't affect how your quilting system works. Good luck.

Leida Glez Posted January 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2017 Hi, I understand that they are aesthetic, but I do not like my clients to see oil stains on the canvas, because they may think that oil can fall into their quilts. I do not want any stains where it should be clean. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leida Glez Posted January 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 ooh It is not oil !!!. Look at the photo, on the other canvas there are repeated spots where the glue stick, which they use at the factory to glue it. What can I clean it????

jimerickson Posted January 29, 2017 Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 You might try some kind of "dry cleaning" solvent and see if you can sponge off the stains. I don't know what might be available in Spain, but herein the U.S. I'd start with lighter fluid. Be careful with it and make sure you don't un-glue the leader.
