How to clean a microfiber suede sofa



A microfiber suede sofa is a cozy centerpiece for any room. Known for being soft and stylish, this popular seating choice makes itself right at home in any gathering spot. One drawback, however, is that the fabric can be tricky to clean, as there are various types of microfiber suede that each require different scrubbing methods. Simplify the process and keep the most comfortable seat in the house fresh by following this easy cleaning routine.

TOOLS AND MATERIALS - Spray bottle- Dish soap- Water- Baking soda or white vinegar (optional)- Rubbing alcohol- Soft white towel or sponge- Soft scrub brush

STEP 1 Microfiber suede fabric is composed of tiny synthetic fibers designed to ensure that your sofa remains more durable and stain resistant. If there's ever a spill, they cause liquids to bead first before soaking into the fabric, allowing you to quickly grab a paper towel and wipe up the mess before any major damage is done. But because these fibers are so small, they also make it more difficult to remove forgotten spills. As often as you can, treat immediately. Some microfiber suede sofas repel water and others are stained by it, so it’s important to first determine what type of microfiber fabric is on your sofa so you can use the proper cleaning methods:

• W-labeled sofas can be cleaned with a water-based solution.
• S-labeled sofas will be stained by water and must be cleaned with a special solvent.
• The label S-W means that you can clean with either a solvent or water.
• An X label means that no liquid should be used on the sofa at all—only a vacuum.
To determine the classification of your sofa, check the tags that may be hiding on or underneath the couch. If you can’t find the label, consider moving forward as if it is an S-labeled model, just to be on the safe side. You should also always test a small spot first with any cleaner you use to ensure that it doesn't stain.

STEP 2 Find a clean spray bottle to store your solution and make application a cinch. If you’re working with a W-labeled sofa, create a water-based mixture of warm water and a few drops of mild dish soap. (To neutralize odors, also add a teaspoon of baking soda or white vinegar.) For S-labeled couches, fill your spray bottle with rubbing alcohol. Note: If you’re working with an X model, you'll want to skip the spray-on cleanser all together and opt to use the upholstery attachment on your vacuum to remove any dirt or debris from the surface of your sofa.

STEP 3 For S- and W-labeled couches, spray the specific stain you’re hoping to target, or work on one area at a time if you aim to freshen the entire sofa. Don't soak the cushions—you're going to want it to dry eventually—but do dampen it enough to loosen the dirt. Then, rub a soft towel or a sponge (either should be white, so no color transfers while you work) in a circular motion over those sections that are saturated with cleanser. The spraying and rubbing might make the couch look darker or mussed at first, but don't worry; the microfiber suede will return to its normal self when it's clean and dry.

STEP 4 Once the fabric feels completely dry to the touch, use a soft scrub brush to gently rub it. This will help fluff the fibers, making the material feel soft and look brand-new again.

Keep your bathroom sparkling clean




Floor Cleaning ServicesSpringClean gives you some tips on organizing the space.

Just like keeping the rest of your house clutter-free and hygienic, one should pay special attention to their bathroom. This is because a bathroom is also indicative of your personal style. After all, what's the point of a nice clean home but a bathroom that looks neglected? Here are some methods to help you spruce it up:

- De-clutter your bathroom shelf. It is important to throw out all the unused and outdated shampoos, conditioners, face washes and all other personal hygiene products. You don't want to hoard expired products.

- Most of us often forget to get a new set of towels for the bathroom. You can wash and re-use them after your family or guests have utilized them but only up to a certain point.

- Clear out your bathroom cabinets of things that are more than a year old. Whether its hair bands, old scrunchies and other accessories, you need to replace them with new ones. Your bathroom shouldn't be used as a dump-yard.

- Soap dishes should be cleaned regularly. The soap residue that accumulates in the dish can become unhygienic.

To clean your windows, use black and white newspapers or a cloth instead of paper towels. For regular cleaning, use one gallon water plus 1/4 cup white vinegar. For a heavy-duty cleaning, use one gallon water and 1/2 cup ammonia and 2 cups of alcohol. Please remember that you should never mix ammonia and bleach together as it will generate toxic fumes.
