Using Resolve® on a couch typically involves cleaning stains and refreshing the fabric. Here's how to do it effectively:
Steps to Clean Your Couch with Resolve®
-
Blot Excess Moisture: Before applying Resolve®, use a clean, colorfast cloth or sponge to blot up any excess liquid or moisture from the soiled area. This prevents the stain from spreading and helps the cleaner penetrate the fabric.
-
Apply Resolve®: Spray the stained or soiled area with Resolve® Multi-Fabric Upholstery Cleaner. Follow the instructions on the product label for specific recommendations regarding spray distance and dwell time.
-
Blot Gently: Using a clean, damp, colorfast sponge or cloth, gently blot the treated area. Avoid rubbing vigorously, as this can damage the fabric and spread the stain.
-
Rinse and Repeat: Rinse your sponge or cloth with clean water. If the stain persists, repeat steps 2 and 3 until the stain is removed or significantly lightened.
-
Remove Excess Moisture: Once the stain is gone, blot any remaining moisture from the fabric with a clean, dry, colorfast sponge or cloth. This helps the couch dry faster and prevents watermarks.
Important Considerations:
- Colorfastness: Always test Resolve® in an inconspicuous area of the couch first to ensure it doesn't damage or discolor the fabric.
- Fabric Type: Check the Resolve® product label to ensure it is safe for the specific type of fabric on your couch (e.g., microfiber, cotton, synthetic).
- Drying: Allow the cleaned area to air dry completely. You can use a fan to speed up the drying process. Avoid using heat, as this can set any remaining stain.
- Vacuuming: Once the couch is completely dry, vacuum the cleaned area to remove any residue and restore the fabric's texture.
By following these steps, you can effectively use Resolve® to clean and refresh your couch upholstery.
