CARE TIPS

 

How to clean stains from your upholstered furniture?

Few Simple Rules:

  • Remove stain immediately. Many spots are harder to remove if allowed to dry.
  • Remove excess moisture with tissue by blotting
  • If stain has dried, then brush and vacuum to remove loose particles before further cleaning.
  • After removing excess moisture, or dried particles, moisten the area with upholstery cleaning agent,
       or foam, and then blot. Do not scrub.
  • Repeat until stain disappears.
  • After the fabric has dried vacuum thoroughly.
  • If the stain cannot be removed by this method, then use a professional cleaning company.

 

How to care for my sofa?

FABRIC

  • Brush or vacuum chairs regularly (at least once a month).
  • Protect from direct sunlight, as this will cause fabric to fade unevenly.
  • Dab spills immediately with cloth dampened with distilled water. If you choose to use mild solvent
  • or upholstery shampoo on a tough stain, test first in an inconspicuous area.
  • For thorough cleaning, we recommend a professional in-home upholstery cleaning service.
    This insures the best look and greatest longevity

SLIPCOVERS
  • For slipcovers in both pre-washed and dry-cleanable fabrics, we recommend a professional in-home
    upholstery cleaning service to clean slipcovers while still on bases. This insures the best look and     greatest longevity. 
  • Do not machine wash your fabric.  It may cause discoloration.
  • Do not line dry because fabric may stretch. Do not store slipcovers away slightly damp.
  • Wash all chair slipcovers at once (just as you'd dry clean both pieces of a suit at once).
  • As with clothing, some fading should be expected; separate laundering may cause color variation.
  • For thorough cleaning, we recommend a professional in-home upholstery cleaning service.
    This insures the best look and greatest longevity.
