3 Steps to Clean Your Sofa

3 Steps of Cleaning Sofa Stains

1. Vacuum

Start off by getting rid of loose dirt and dust on the couch surface by vacuuming the couch; you could also use a brush with gentle bristles as an alternative.

2. Identify the Type of Sofa Fabric

Just like most clothes, sofas come with a tag that gives instructions on how to clean. Find the label on your couch and read the instructions.

Here is a bit of breakdown on what is on the tag and what it means.

• X: This means you can only use a vacuum.
• W: This means you can use water.
• S: This means you may only use solvent-based cleaners
• WS: This means you can use either water or Solvent-based cleaner only.
3. Remove Stains

With the information from the couch tag, you should be ready to clean up the stains. You can mix the ingredients on your own based on the type of fabric and stain. Some stains may be easy to remove while with some you may need to call in a team of professional cleaners. Alcohol, dish soap and vinegar are some of the ingredients you would use to make homemade cleaners.

After the cleaning process is complete, in the case that you are not satisfied with the results, let the couch dry before you redo the whole process. Another option would be getting professional help instead of redoing the whole process by yourself. We at Mass Carpet Cleanup have the best of knowledge in cleaning services, and we would be glad to be of service to you.
