How to clean an old sofa in the house: three useful life hacks
SSPDaily has prepared life hacks on how to clean an old sofa in the house. Learn simple cleaning instructions that anyone can use.
Gentle cleaning
Refreshing an old sofa can begin with gentle cleaning of the fabric with a soft-bristled brush. The brush should be pointed in the direction of the fabric pile to avoid damaging the material. It will help remove dust and debris from the surface, restoring the sofa to its original appearance and freshness.
Stain cleaning solution
Stubborn stains on the sofa can be effectively removed by preparing a solution using a small amount of mild detergent mixed with water. Before using the solution, it is important to test it on an inconspicuous area of the sofa to ensure that the colour is consistent. Gently wipe the stained areas with the solution using a clean cloth and then dry - this will help to effectively remove stains without damaging the fabric.
Vacuuming
Finally, it is recommended to vacuum the sofa to remove all debris, paying particular attention to crevices and seams, using an upholstery attachment. In addition, to refresh the cushions, gently pat and turn them to ensure even wear and tear, and then the old sofa will look and feel refreshed.
