How to Clean a Sofa Fabricに挑戦したい方へ、迷わずに進められる ヒントをお届けします。

Now, the stains. They’re not “stains”; they’re “character marks” that need to meet their maker. For water-safe sofas (W or WS), mix a few drops of dish soap with warm water. Dip a white cloth—white only, because a red cloth will leave a dye-based heart attack on your gray couch.

Blot the stain. Do not rub. Rubbing is for genie lamps, not sofa gunk. Rubbing pushes the gunk deeper, like you’re tucking it into bed. Blot until the stain transfers to the cloth. If it doesn’t move, pretend you’re a surgeon: exact, gentle, and slightly sweaty.

For Solvent-Only Sofas (S): The Volatile Adventure

This is the “danger zone.” You need a dry-cleaning solvent or isopropyl alcohol. Test it on a hidden spot first. If that spot turns into a ghost, stop immediately and call a wizard (or a professional). Work in a very ventilated area—ideally outside, wearing gloves, and with a fan pointed at your face. You’re basically a shampoo chemist now.

Fun fact: Using water on an “S” sofa is like pouring water on a gremlin. It will come out wrong. The shape will warp. The color will fade. And you’ll cry into the very mess you made.
