Apologies if I am repeating any previous threads.

A customer of mine has gone on holiday and wants a large two seater sofa cleaning. The problem is his dog occupies this sofa and the problem I face is body oil/grease and hair. Never had to clean one with such a degree of soiling.

I can't tell you whether it is natural or man made fibre but passed shrinkage and colourfast test. I normally tackle sofas with wool-x MS, maybe with orange-x to boost for oil but I'm not sure this will be enough. It if we're to be natural fibre would prochem fabric restorer be ok or this only for synthetics? I will acid rinse and then towel off.

fabric restorer will be the one

I normally use fabric restorer for most upholstery in fact I've got one in the morning and I imagine it will be a combination of fabric restorer and cotton cleaner rinse, but if a dog uses the sofa for his bed it will probably stink so it might be prudent to take an enzyme with you as well

Thanks fellas.

Stuart I do have some chemspec Haitian cotton cleaner which I have on the odd occasion mixed with shampoo to create a foam, never thought to use it as a rinse.

Thank you both for your reply

I use the Craftex cotton cleaner, its highly acidic about 3.6 and its cheap, I do use Chemspec Hiation cotton cleaner on premium jobs or where there is a chance of watermarks

If you have liquid HCC don't use as a rinse only the powdered version

ps. Chemspec don't do liquid anymore

[Simon Campbell]

Hi Jim

It's the powdered version I have. When practising with it in the past as a foam with shampoo I was leaving like white watermarks when dry so just stuck back on the shelf.
Probably time to get it back off the shelf and change my approach.

I'll check the Craftex CC out. Cheers for the tip Stuart.
