Micro-fiber sofa stains?
Question:I just purchased a micro-fiber sofa, and the salesman claims it is "stain resistant"? I feel like I should protect it anyway with some kind of scotchguard. Does anyone have any experience with micro-fiber? Will scotchguard be a safe thing to do? Is it necessary?
Answers:
It all depends on the type of stain ... I have three microfiber sofas and I treated two of them with Scotchguard and one (the first one I bought) I did not.
Most spills or stains come up from the sofas with a bit of resolve and a gentle rub but the sofa I did not scotchguard does have one grease stain on it that I could not get to come up.
I would say better safe than sorry and invest in a can of Scotchguard ... just remember to let it dry completely before using the couch again.
It's not necessary. I've got a microfiber sofa, and have had it for 1 year. If I get a stain on it I just remove it with a damp cloth. It comes off really easy. The salesman is right!
I love my micro-fiber couch. And I have a cat and I spill things. When I purchased it I was told ONLY USE WATER on a damp towel and it will remove problems. I have spilled coffee, food and the cat has brought in dirty, all removed with a damp towel. BTW my couch is a light brown.
