The Care and Cleaning of
Upholstery Fabrics
Here are some general rules to follow in caring for your fabric:
Vacuum
or brush away loose dirt before it becomes embedded in the fabric. Clean Up Spills
and stains right away. The longer soil and stains stay on the
fabric, the harder they are to remove.
Your furniture may be labeled with the voluntary
industry cleanability code. Since the dyes or backings on some upholstery fabrics
will be affected by water or spot cleaners, the cleanability code tells which cleaning
method is safest for your fabric. If your furniture is not coded, test the fabric
for damage or color change on a hidden part of the furniture before spot cleaning. The code is as follows:
(W) Use only water-based cleaning agents or foam. Mix 2 tablespoons ammonia or
ammoniated detergent to a quart of water. Wipe the stain gently with a cloth
dampened with the solution. Continue, turning the cloth so you're always using a
clean portion.
(S) Use only mild, pure, water-free dry cleaning solvent. Wet a cloth with the spot cleaner
and follow the same procedure as described above.
(WS) Either
of the above methods may be used.
(X) Clean
fabric only by vacuuming or light brushing to remove soil. Do not use liquid cleaning
agents of any type.
The furniture industry recommends professional cleaning when overall
cleaning is necessary. The cleanability code should be called to the attention of
your professional cleaner.
Tips for Velvet Upholstery:
Spot clean with a water-free dry cleaning product, wiping in the direction
of the pile (so the pile lays down). When the fabric is dry, brush gently with a
suede brush, first against, then with the pile.
Note:
Before treating any stain, test the appropriate stain-removing product
(including water, if you plan to use it) on a hidden area to make certain the fabric and
color will not be damaged by the process.
