Cleaning methods for fabric sofas

In the process of long-term use, fabric sofas will inevitably be stained with various stains. So, how to effectively clean fabric sofas to keep them clean and beautiful? Next, we will give you a detailed introduction to the cleaning method of fabric sofas.

1. Precautions for the use of vacuum cleaners 

For the daily cleaning of fabric sofas, regular vacuuming is crucial. During vacuuming, the use of suction brushes should be avoided to avoid damaging the weaving threads on the textile cloth and causing the weaving threads to loosen. At the same time, it is also necessary to control the suction power to avoid being too large and the weaving thread is torn. Usually, you can gently pat the sofa with a dry towel, which will also help keep it clean. 

2. Local scrubbing 

If there are local stains on the fabric sofa, scrubbing with water is a simple and effective method. 

3. Deep cleansing 

If the stubborn stains on the fabric sofa cannot be completely removed by wiping with water, it is recommended to use a combination of detergent and sponge to wipe it off. The sponge's excellent water absorption and the static electricity generated by its friction make it highly effective in removing all kinds of stains from sofas. 

4. Deal with large areas of stains

If there are large areas of stains on the fabric sofa, it is recommended to seek professional cleaning services. Cleaning your own sofa can cause damage to your sofa, which can affect its overall appearance, so it's safer to have it cleaned up by a professional.

Part 2: Cleaning Methods for Non-Removable Fabric Sofas

If your fabric sofa cannot be disassembled and has surface stains, how should you clean it? First, always use a mild cleaner, avoiding strong chemical detergents to prevent damage. Next, apply the cleaner to the stained area and gently wipe with a soft cloth until the stain is removed. Finally, wipe the surface with clean water to ensure complete removal of the cleaner, and allow the sofa to air-dry naturally. Following these steps will enable you to effectively clean non-removable fabric sofas. 

1. Cleaning Tips for Dark-Colored Fabric Sofas 

Dark-colored fabric sofas are relatively easier to clean daily due to their stain-hiding properties. To maintain cleanliness, regularly vacuum and supplement with cloth wiping. When vacuuming, avoid excessive force to prevent accidental damage to textile threads. 

2. Dust Cleaning Techniques for Surface Maintenance 

When cleaning dark fabric sofas, begin by gently removing surface dust using a vacuum cleaner. Follow this by lightly wiping the surface with a towel to eliminate residual dirt. Crucially, avoid excessive water during wiping to protect the sofa’s internal frame structure from moisture absorption and deformation. 

3. Cleaning Guide for Velvet/Pile-Fabric Surfaces

For sofas with velvet or pile-fabric surfaces, extra care is required during cleaning. It is recommended to use a clean, soft-bristled brush dipped in a small amount of diluted alcohol to gently brush the surface. Afterwards, dry the alcohol using a hair dryer. If accidentally stained by fruit juice, mix a small amount of baking soda with water to form a paste, apply it to the stain with a cloth, and gently wipe—this will easily remove the residue.
