How do I clean a microfiber couch?

Do you guys think Simple Green and water will do the trick? I have a 3 month old, a 20 month old, and a messy hubby that get food and junk all over the couch. It's sage green and I don't want it to fade from washing. Any ideas?

How do I clean a microfiber couch?
if it has been stain treated then the only thing you can use is water, other wise i would use a rug shampooer
Reply:Check and see if you have a 'tag' somewhere on the couch:



W means you can use water based cleaning solution.

S means you have to use a "solvent" based cleaner

S-W means you can use S or W type cleaners

Reply:Look for the tag...usually under the cushions....mine (which is also microfiber) says to use carpet/upholstery cleaner. I use resolve...spray it on and let it sit for about 5 minutes and then use a scrub brush to scrub it....then it takes about 1-2 hrs to dry. Good luck!
Reply:The first thing that you need to do when it comes to your microfiber furniture is to read the tag. To tell you to do something and then it be something that you should not do would be wrong. So, take a moment to look at the tag that comes with your furniture. This will at least tell you what not to do with your furniture.



Vacuum it with the attachment of a high powered vacuum cleaner. This will remove the lint, debris and the pet hair that gets into it. You should try to do this at least once per month, more if you have children.



Get to the spills quickly. If something spills onto your furniture, grab an absorbent white terry cloth and blot the stain. Do not scrub it as this will worsen it. Blot out until completely dry.



Use a mild detergent to wash stains or spots. Do not use bleaching products on your furniture as this will discolor it. You will want to use as little as you can to wash the furniture. Blot on and then blot off, no scrubbing.



If that does not work, consider dry cleaning products. Make sure that the product that you purchase is capable of cleaning the product that you want to use it on. Most will tell you right on the bottom what to do.



Professionally have it cleaned. If you have stains or just want the furniture cleaned, take it to a professional. You will not have to worry about using the wrong chemical. Also, carpet washers that have attachments can cause the microfiber to wrinkle and shrink. Avoid this and instead have a professional handle deep cleaning.



I hope this was helpful,take care!!! :)
Reply:I have rented a steam cleaner from walmart with the hose attachment and purchased an upholstery cleaner (rug-doctor brand) which is in the same section (although I am sure you could use the cleaner you purchased)... I have a brown microfiber which was soaked in Hurricane Wilma, and been through much more, it looks fabulous now, got carried away and did all the pillows too. Good luck!
