hi joeF
the 3m adhesive used to attach the mouse fur ISN'T gonna come off easily...
it at all.
3m does make an
adhesive remover which might work, but i doubt it.
none of these other water, oil or solvent based products will loosen it....
a heat gun, and a scraper and elbow grease, a LOT of elbow grease, but the results will NOT be pretty.
not to change your efforts (many simply don't like the mouse fur) but the fur should have NO effect on allergy sufferers...
it's a polyester fiber and a non allergen, called ozite rib fabric.
Hytex - Ozite Rib Acoustical Fabrics
details in the attached pdf...
yes dust or pollen or animal dander could get on it but the fabric itself is inert.
it can be cleaned with solvents, water or dilute surfactants. wet, blot, blot, blot dry.
vacuuming will pull black alum dust to the surface (it is NOT mold) and badly discolor.
the carpet was a piece of cake to remove/replace.
this stuff is really attached and the skin under it ISN't gonna look like the shinny skinned interiors, no matter what.
it is a major effort to remove, like trying to skin a bear...
a LIVING bear....
cheers

all of these products are just gonna make a nasty mess IN the fabric (i guess it's a chance to practice their cleaning tips)...
