Is Velvet Good for a Sofa?

In addition, since velvet is exceptionally durable and doesn’t mark, crush or fade like many fabrics, it’s an excellent option for pet owners.

How to Clean Velvet Sofas

The best way to ensure that the sofa looks its best for years to come is to care for it and maintain it properly. For example, the best way to keep velvet sofas clean is to vacuum every week to remove dust, pet hair, and loose dirt and maintain maximum comfort; the cushions should be puffed regularly.

In the presence of young children or if you’re a bit accident-prone, you’re almost sure to spill something and possibly stain something. Regardless of what you are dealing with; ketchup, juice, mud, or lipstick, the first thing that you need to do is not panic.

To remove any spill, you should blot the area first. If you must remove a stain, spray water on it and blot it with a white paper towel. Do not rub the color or use a circular motion to remove it, making the stain worse. Instead, blot the stain until you cannot see it on the paper towel. After that, apply more water and rub with gentle movements using a microfibre cloth. Next, rub the stain in circles with a white soap bar until it disappears. After that, let it air dry.
