4 DIY tips for removing sofa stains

cleaning carpet stains

With HG it is easy to remove stains from a sofa. There are also DIY tips on the internet. We would like to share 4. Be careful! These products don’t always work. For specific stains it is wise to use a professional HG product.

1. Shampoo

You can remove stains from a sofa or a carpet with shampoo. Apply the shampoo undiluted to the stain, then massage with a damp cloth or sponge.

2. Baking soda

Dissolve a few spoonfuls of baking soda in hot water. Apply this mixture to the stain with a sponge, then dry the spot with a cloth. This method is less suitable for removing an older, absorbed stain.

3. Iron

You can also use an iron to remove some stains from fabric, however be careful with the heat. First, prepare a mixture of hot water and a small amount of detergent. Apply a generous amount onto the stain until it is wet. Leave it to absorb for a few minutes, then put a cloth over the stain and iron this until the spot is dry.

4. Soft household soap

Soft household soap is often used to remove stains. Prepare a mixture of lukewarm water and soft household soap, then use a sponge to scrub the sofa or carpet stain. Then dry the stain with a towel and leave it to air dry.

The above tips only work for removing stains from a fabric sofa. If you have a leather sofa and are looking for a leather sofa stain remover, use HG deep cleaner for leather.
