How To Clean a Microfiber Couch - Quick & Easy!

If you have a microfiber couch you know one of the best things is how easy it is to clean! Unfortunately though, water mark stains are tougher than expected to remove (and they can come from all sorts of things - babies, dogs, spills...you name it). Water marks don't have to stay around forever though, Sarah from www.diyjustcuz.com shares how she removes these pesky stains for good.
Check out the difference, it's like a brand new couch.
What was once dirty and questionable now looks clean and perfect!


SUPPLIES: White cloth, rubbing alcohol, spray bottle, baby wipes, hard bristle/scrubbing brush, hair dryer (optional).
Poor rubbing alcohol in the spray bottle and dampen the fabric. Scrub the couch with the wash cloth and scrubbing brush. This helps remove the dirt stains but not the water stains.
Finally, to remove every last ounce of dirt and water, use the magic tool...BABY WIPES. Completely scrub and soak the couches with the baby wipes and before you know it, all the water stains will completely vanish! It's that simple.


REMEMBER: Rubbing alcohol for dirt, wipes for water stains!

    Not sure what my sofa is covered with. I have washed the cushion covers in the washing machine on cold with some success. Should I try the alcohol/baby wipes on the fixed arms?

    I have a microfiber couch and 2 dogs so it's covered in dog drool spots. I clean it with window cleaner (generic Windex). I just spray the area til wet and then wipe it with a microfiber cleaning rag. Works every time even on the occasional accident!
