FAQs
Can I use this on leather furniture?
No, this kit is specifically formulated for fabric upholstery and may cause damage to leather or suede surfaces.
Is the cleaner safe for all fabric types?
While versatile, we recommend checking the manufacturer's care tag on your furniture and performing a small spot test before full application.
How often should I clean my sofa?
For general maintenance, a light cleaning every few months is ideal, while spills should be treated as soon as they occur.
Are the cloths machine washable?
Yes, you can wash the included cloths, but avoid using fabric softener, as it can reduce their absorbency for future use.
Does this remove permanent marker stains?
The kit is designed for common household stains; permanent marker may require professional cleaning services depending on the fabric composition.
Troubleshooting
Stain is not lifting after application
Repeat the process by blotting gently; do not scrub, as this can force the stain deeper into the weave.
Fabric appears slightly discolored after drying
You may have used too much solution. Rinse the area lightly with a damp cloth and allow it to air dry naturally away from heat sources.
The scent of the deodoriser is too strong
Ensure the room is well-ventilated during application and use a lighter misting motion.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use the kit effectively, start by clearing any loose debris or dust from the furniture using a vacuum attachment. Before applying any solution, always check the care label on your fabric furniture to ensure it is safe for liquid cleaning. Perform a spot test in a hidden area (such as the back or underneath the sofa) and allow it to dry completely to verify that the fabric color does not bleed. Store the kit in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the cleaning solutions. After each use, ensure all bottle caps are tightly sealed to prevent evaporation or spills, and wash the microfiber cloths to keep them ready for the next cleaning task.
