Before using any cleaner on the upholstery, locate the small manufacturer’s tag. This determines what products are safe for upholstery cleaning.
🔍 Fabric Cleaning Codes You MUST Know Befor Cleaning Upholstery
W – Water-based cleaners are safe
S – Use solvent-based cleaners only (NO water)
WS – Water-based or solvent-based cleaners are both safe
X – Vacuum only; professional cleaning required
If the tag is missing, test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first.

Wear gloves.
Scoop solids with a paper towel or spoon into a plastic bag.
Blot—do NOT rub—the area with a dry towel to remove as much moisture as possible.
✔ If your tag says W or WS (most common):
Hydrogen peroxide is often more effective on biological stains than vinegar, but it must be used carefully when it comes to upholstery cleaning.
Safe Cleaning Solution Option (W or WS fabrics):
Hydrogen Peroxide + Mild Dish Soap
1 cup warm water
1 teaspoon mild dish soap
1 tablespoon 3% hydrogen peroxide
How to use it:
Lightly apply the mixture to the stained area.
Blot gently with a clean cloth.
Repeat until the stain lifts.
Rinse with plain water.
Blot dry and allow to air dry completely.
✔ If your tag says S (solvent-clean only):
Use a dry-cleaning solvent, not water.
Apply the solvent to a clean cloth.
Blot gently until the stain loosens.
Avoid soaking the fabric.
✔ If your tag says X:
Do NOT apply liquid cleaners.
Vacuum only.
Professional cleaning is strongly recommended.
Be sure to follow the tag labels instructions based on the codes to clean upholstery during upholstery cleaning.
