Instructions To Clean Your Upholstery:
Vacuum: To begin cleaning your upholstery you will need to properly vacuum the piece of furniture. To properly vacuum you will need to cover every inch of the piece, getting the sides, back and middle, dust is everywhere so it is crucial that you do this.
Remove Debris: If there is a solid stain on your upholstery, lift as much of it up as you can. Never rub!! You can scrape, blot, or pull the debris up, and use a bristle brush if needed.
Blot the Stain: If you have a liquid stain, blot it up with a paper towel!
Make the Cleaning Solution: Next, you will need to prepare a water-based cleaning solution. To do so, mix ¼ cup of dishwashing liquid and one cup of warm water then whisk it together until suds begin to form.
Rub The Stain With The Solution: Dip the sponge into the mixture and rub away the stain.
Rinse: Blot away any remaining solution and let it dry, away from direct sunlight.
