How To Clean A Couch With A Carpet Cleaner

Cleaning a couch with a carpet cleaner can be a daunting task, but it is definitely possible to do it yourself. Here is a step-by-step guide to help you get started:

1. Gather your supplies. You will need a carpet cleaner, upholstery cleaner, clean water, and a soft cloth.

2. Prepare your couch. Remove any pillows or cushions from the couch. If the couch is upholstered in a delicate fabric, check the manufacturer's instructions to make sure that it is safe to clean with a carpet cleaner.

3. Test the carpet cleaner. Fill the carpet cleaner with water and upholstery cleaner. Test the carpet cleaner on an inconspicuous area of the couch to make sure that it does not damage the fabric.

4. Clean the couch. Start by cleaning the couch in small sections. Work in the direction of the nap of the fabric. Avoid over-saturating the couch with water.

5. Rinse the couch. After you have finished cleaning the couch, rinse it with water. Use a soft cloth to dab up any excess water.

6. Dry the couch. Open the windows and doors to allow the couch to air dry. You can also use a fan to help speed up the drying process.
