• Start by loosening any dried-on substances from the couch. Use a clean white towel or a stiff brush to gently brush the fabric
• Instead of using baking soda, apply a small amount of upholstery shampoo evenly over the entire couch. This helps break down odors and loosen stains. Let it sit for a short period as recommended on the shampoo label, then use a soft brush or cloth to work the shampoo into the fabric gently.
• While the shampoo is working, prepare a homemade cleaning solution if needed. In a spray bottle, combine 1 teaspoon of dishwashing liquid, 1 tablespoon of white vinegar, and 1 cup of warm water. This solution can be used to enhance the cleaning effect, especially on stubborn stains. It’s advisable to mix this solution over a sink to manage any fizzing and bubbling.
• After working the shampoo into the fabric, use the cleaning solution by spraying it onto a clean white cloth. Gently dab and rub any visible stains on the fabric. For a more comprehensive clean, you can wipe down the entire sofa with the solution.
• Allow the couch to dry completely for a few hours. During this time, avoid sitting on the couch or placing any items on it to ensure it dries evenly and without any new marks.
By following these steps, you can effectively clean your cloth couch and keep it looking fresh and new.
