Sometimes you might prefer to eat by sitting on your couch and thereby staining it with food particles. However, it becomes a nightmare when you find that your sofa needs cleaning. But, sofa cleaning is not that troublesome as it seems to be. Once you are aware of the cleaning process, you can shine your sofa at home itself. The cleaning is slightly different for a fabric sofa. Thus, we have created this blog for those who find the sofa cleaning nothing but a waste of time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How to Get a Cleansed Fabric Sofa without Professional Help?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We have discussed the steps for getting stainless upholstery.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Things Needed to be Checked Before You Clean:<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First, check the manufacturer\u2019s cleaning instructions before proceeding with the actual process. Otherwise, an incorrect attempt will void warranties and ruin your couch. So, check the tag attached to your sofa and read the important facts. Probably one side of the tag will contain the cleaning information of the sofa cover and the other will specify the cleaning of cushions. Generally, the tag contains the following information:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">W \u2014 The material can be cleaned with water.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">S \u2014 The material requires a special solvent-based cleaner instead of water.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WS \u2014 You can use either water or solvent-based cleaner.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">X \u2014\u00a0 This material can be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner only.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Removing Stains from a Fabric Sofa<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can use this method only when the tag is marked with \u2018W\u2019 or \u2018WS\u201d. First, arrange for the following items and then start the <a href=\"https:\/\/uaetechnician.ae\/sofa-cleaning-service\">sofa cleaning Dubai<\/a> process.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A vacuum cleaner with an upholstery attachment.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A light-colored or white microfiber cloth and a bucket.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep the water clean as much as possible.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Liquid dish soap and distilled white vinegar.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use a vacuum cleaner to collect the leftover dust particles from your sofa. Otherwise, this debris will create problems while removing the stain. Mix two cups of water, one tablespoon of dishwashing liquid, and one tablespoon of vinegar in the bucket. Wet the microfibre cloth with water and gently rub it over the stained area of your sofa. Then get another clean microfibre cloth and damp it with water. Use the cloth to blot the affected area and remove any remaining soap. Again, repeat the previous step with another piece of microfibre cloth. You can also switch on the fan to dry the area quickly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Use Water-based Detergent\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure that your sofa will be able to withstand a water-based detergent before using this method. Before applying the method on the entire sofa, perform a spot test on a hidden area of your sofa. It will then ensure that steaming won\u2019t damage your sofa in any way. To do so, you must follow the given instructions:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Buy a water-based detergent that can be safely applied on your sofa.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then, mix three ounces of this detergent and water in a container.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dip a rag into the solution and rub it on a small spot of your sofa.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After 10 minutes, press a paper towel to the spot and check if the fabric\u2019s dye comes off or not.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the fabric dye doesn\u2019t get affected, then apply the mixture to other stained areas of your couch.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, wipe away the mixture with a microfibre cloth and let the sofa become dry.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><b>Steam Clean Your Couch<\/b><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unscrew the cap of the tank on your steam vacuum.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make a solution of fabric, shampoo, and water and pour it into the tank.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Close the cap and attach the upholstery attachment to the end of the hose.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Place the nozzle against the sofa\u2019s fabric and press down the button to release the mixture prepared beforehand.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Again move the steam vacuum to suck up the excess detergent.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Leave the sofa for a few minutes and then wipe away the shampoo with a microfibre cloth.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you still find a slight sign of stain, then repeat the above steps once more.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, let the sofa air-dry and then check the appearance of your sofa.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Note: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some stains seem to be so strong that they don\u2019t get removed after a single cleaning. The problem is more severe if you have ignored the stain for a long time. Also, book <a href=\"https:\/\/maidsindubai.ae\/\">Maids in Dubai<\/a>.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Wrapping it Up&#8230;<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hopefully, you are going to get an unblemished sofa by following the above homemade tips.
