From How To Clean Microfiber Furniture
[edit] How to clean microfiber furniture
Microfiber is fiber with very thin strands, (less than one denier). Microfiber can be made to look like suede or leather, and makes very attractive furniture. Fabrics made with microfibers are very soft and can repel water. This makes them very good for upholstery, but furniture manufacturers and salesmen would like you to believe that they are unstainable and indesctructable. This is NOT true!
It is possible to completely ruin your new microfiber sofa if you don't take proper care of it. This website is dedicated to helping you to take proper care of your expensive furniture purchase.
Microfiber furniture will commonly come with a tag that tells you how to clean it. The tags will say, W, S, S-W, or X.
- W means you can use water based cleaning solution.
- S means you have to use a "solvent" based cleaner
- S-W means you can use S or W type cleaners
- X means you can vacuum only.
If you have furniture with a W tag, then good for you, you probably don't need this website. Personally, my sofas do not have any tags, and the most common problems I've seen are from people who use water to clean their sofa. They end up with water rings, which is NOT what you want from your probably expensive purchase!
