How do I clean the Sofa fabric?Updated 10 months ago
In General:
For light spills, blot with a paper towel.
For tougher spills, use a mild soap and water mix.
To make the soap and water mixture, take 1 teaspoon of a liquid detergent (such as Tide) and mix it with 16 oz. of water in a bowl or plastic container — do not over wet the material.
Cushion covers should not be removed and laundered — doing so could diminish their stain-resistance.
Liquid Spills:
When cleaning a liquid spill, immediately blot the fabric surface with a cloth/towel to remove the spilled liquid. To spot clean the spilled area, soak a clean cloth/towel in a soap and water mixture and clean the stained area in a gentle circular motion.
If needed, take a damp, clean cloth and go over the affected area to remove any soap residue from the fabric. Do not over wet the material.
If the soap and water mixture does not remove the stain completely, then repeat the above process using a multi-purpose cleaner (such as Woolite Fabric and Upholstery Cleaner).
Non-liquid Spills:
When cleaning a non-liquid spill, immediately remove the excess spilled material from the fabric by lifting the spilled material off the affected area with a butter knife and accumulating the spilled material onto a cloth/towel.
To spot clean the spilled area, soak a clean cloth/towel in a soap and water mixture and clean the stained area in a gentle circular motion. If needed, take a damp, clean cloth and go over the affected area to remove any soap residue from the fabric. Do not over wet the material.
If the soap and water mixture does not remove the stain completely, then repeat the above process using a multi-purpose cleaner (such as Woolite Fabric and Upholstery Cleaner).
The fabric is stain-resistant but not stain-proof. Regular spot-cleaning and maintenance is recommended.
Stains that ARE NOT likely to be removed by the methods above include, but are not limited to: oil-based products (such as salad dressing and lotion), wax-based products (such as candle wax and crayons), ink marks and mustard. For any of these stains, we recommend consulting a professional upholstery cleaner.
