Subject: Stain removal on couch
Question
My son just threw up Red Gatorade on our microfiber couch. What can I use to clean the couch and remove the odors?
Thank you!
Answer
Heather, Red Gatorade is basically red dye. The one positive thing is microfiber is very cleanable. Make a cleaning solution with an ounce of non bleaching liquid laundry detergent and water. Use a 16 oz. spray bottle. Spray the area and agitate it. If you have a toothbrush you don't need, that would be perfect. Then blot the spot with a dry white towel. If that doesn't work, try to get the couch in an area with some sun. Sunlight will break down red dyes.
