How to Care for Your Upholstery
Following these simple guidelines will help keep your upholstered living room, dining room, and bedroom furniture looking like new.
- To avoid fading, keep upholstered home furniture out of direct sunlight.
- Vacuum upholstered furniture as often as possible. Even if your home furniture has seen little use, the abrasive action of dirt and dust particles can wear on the fibers of your upholstery fabric. For high-use furniture, it’s a good idea to frequently beat the cushions and then vacuum and rotate them.
- Do not place newspapers directly on home furniture upholstery fabric, since ink will accumulate and is difficult to remove.
- Never cover your upholstered furniture with dark-colored blankets, sheets, etc., because the colored dyes can rub off onto fabric when dry or bleed when wet.
- Avoid the use of dyes, paints, inks, nail polishes, and Mercurochrome around your fabric upholstery, since these substances alter color and will stain.
- Never remove cushion covers for dry cleaning or machine washing, even though they have zippers. The colors can fade and no longer match the rest of the upholstery, or they can shrink or be damaged in the wash.
- Periodic professional Sarasota furniture cleaning will keep soil accumulation from marring the beauty of the upholstery of your home living room, dining room, and bedroom furniture.
