Cleaned this designer bought sofa because of wine spill. Custy put vinegar then baking soda. Extracted with home extractor. First pic is what I showed up to. I cleaned with week flex and citrasolve prespray and water extraction with sapphire upholstery tool. I then spotted with stain magic, let it dwell 15min then extracted. Only thing left after cleaning was darkest spot of wine still shown in the second pic but no water marks. 2nd pic is what custy took the next day. She called store that sold it and fiber is 42%cotton/ 32%linen/ 26%rayon. Any suggestions? P.s. We did dry strokes.

You need to evenly wet the entire piece and speed dry with air movers.

Ughhh, nightmare fabric

 

[Kamill Kierskii]

If it's a water stain we had luck with a mixture of activator powder and upholstery shampoo . Whipped in to nice foamy solution and applied evenly to the fabric . Let it sit for a bit and then vacuum only

What about encaping the area with releasit ds2?

 

[Carlos Mendez]

Oxy cotton buffer interlink sells it

 

[Steve Pringle]

use haitian cotton shampoo

 

[Kamill Kierskii]

Haitian cotton stinks like hell

 

[Carlos Mendez]

Not sure about hatian cotton on cream cotton ask micheal cammacho

 

[Carlos Mendez]

And you need to speed dry it dont leave tell its fully dry so you can se final result

 

[Kamill Kierskii]

Use something like that to apply

 

[Kamill Kierskii]

Make sure everything is wet evenly but do not over wet it

Encapsulate with buffing tool and cymex pad

So to go into a little more detail: 1. Make sure you are not leaving the cleaned area with a high pH as it can cause cellulosic browning. 2. When wet cleaning, keep it as dry as possible, dry it as quickly as possible, and evenly wet and dry the piece to avoid browning/watermarking. 3. If you still experience browning, there are multiple tannin/browning reducer agents on the market that you can treat the material with to aid in the reducing and eliminating cellulosic browning.

Then, after you're done, move the arm into direct sunlight.

Why are you going back. If a stain has been tampered with you make them sign a form prior to the job, as we should not be offering guaranteed removal...never take complete ownership of a stain, especially the ones the customer tried to fix themselves.

 

[Chandler Thompson]

Oh no. I do a lot of linen here. Use Haitian cotton to shampoo the entire sofa. You may have to do it multiple times to achieve the best results.

 

[Chandler Thompson]

Don't worry that is a normal reaction for that material. You just need to pack some patience.

 

[Billy Morgan]

Boost all, buff all, and a fabric shampoo

 

[Steven King]

Don't use Flex on that type of upholstery. PH to high
