Sty Stained
How do I clean my microfiber sofa?
I have a 4 year old tan "microfiber" sofa. not exactly sure what that means. I think the fabric is polyester or a blend of some sort. I can't find a tag on the sofa. Naturally, being a slob and having a cat that is an equal slob, the couch has become a bit dingy and there are a few stains here and there. I don't have a steam cleaner and really don't want to fork out the cash to buy or even rent one, but I would like to clean the sofa as best I can. Any products good for spot removal on this type of upholstery? Can the loose cushion covers be removed and machine washed? Help! I've spent days cleaning and organizing my apartment and now that everything else in my house is clean and sparkling, and in it's place (the place was a pig sty to start with) I can't stand looking at this dingy sofa but I can't afford a new one, and this one is really comfy-just dirty.
For general microfiber furniture cleaning, though, a drop or two of mild detergent, like dish soap or laundry detergent, combined with a bit of water should clean your microfiber sofa in no time.
Odors like urine can be easily eliminated by blotting the stain with white vinegar and distilled water, applying baking soda, then vacuuming. For the most part, cleaning will be an easy process if it is true microfiber. Imposter materials, though, may be more difficult to clean.
The majority of microfiber sofas use polyester as the base fabric because it has the ability to absorb color better than other materials. As a result of this chemical process, the color is forced to stay in the fiber, and no other treatments will ever be necessary.
It may be necessary to occasionally have your microfiber sofa steam cleaned. It is fairly safe, but a professional cleaning service might not only do the best cleaning job, but also do the best job of protecting your microfiber sofa. Finally, to clean lint from your sofa, a simple lint roller (the kind that is sticky) should be the best option. Vacuuming might help in some cases as well.
