Keep Your Sofa Looking Pristine: A Guide to Cleaning and Protecting Your Furniture Investment
Your sofa is more than just a piece of furniture; it's where memories are made, conversations are shared, and relaxation begins. To ensure your sofa remains in pristine condition for years to come, proper cleaning and protection are essential. At the Home Furnishings Market, we understand the value of your investment, which is why we not only offer quality sofas but also recommend the Guardsman Protection Plan to safeguard your furniture against life's unexpected mishaps. The Guardsman Protection Plan is an added option you can choose when you purchase your next upholstery piece. Here are some additional ways you can help preserve and protect your beautiful new upholstery frame:
3. Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause fading and deterioration of upholstery fabrics and leather. Place your sofa away from direct sunlight or use curtains/blinds to protect it.
4. Use Arm Covers and Throws: Protect high-contact areas like armrests by using arm covers or decorative throws.
Dealing with Spills and Stains
Accidents happen, but prompt action can prevent permanent damage to your sofa. Here's how to tackle common spills and stains:
1. Blot, Don't Rub: Use a clean cloth or paper towel to blot spills immediately, absorbing as much liquid as possible without rubbing, which can spread the stain.
2. Spot Cleaning: For water-based stains, use a mild detergent diluted with water and gently blot the affected area. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.
3. Professional Cleaning: For tough stains or overall cleaning, consider professional upholstery cleaning services recommended by Home Furnishings Market.
