How do I remove stubborn stains from a sofa in Nairobi?
Stubborn sofa stains require the right approach to avoid spreading or damaging fabric. Always blot, never rub.
Quick Action Steps (Any Stain)
- Blot liquid stains with a clean white cloth, working from outside inward
- Remove solid debris after letting it dry first
- Check the care label: W = water-safe; S = solvent only; X = vacuum only
DIY Treatments by Stain Type
| Stain | Treatment |
|---|---|
| Tea / coffee | Cold water + mild dish soap, blot gently |
| Red wine | Blot, apply salt to absorb, then cold water + detergent |
| Blood | Cold water only — heat permanently sets blood stains |
| Grease | Bicarb soda + 15 min wait + vacuum + mild detergent |
| Pet urine | Blot, enzyme cleaner, leave 10 min, blot dry |
| Mould | Do not DIY — call a professional immediately |
