Stains, Mopping, Wiping, Ironing, Cleaning - Microfiber couch


Expert: Todd Malin - 5/3/2009

Question
I had a couch given to me....I don't know if it's worth keeping though. It's microfiber material and it looks like a part of it has been sweated out! Now it just looks like dark leather while the rest looks like a light brown material. Do you think i could restore it back to it's original texture and if so with what? Or should i just ditch it? It really needs a good cleaning but besides that i see it in good condition. What do you think?

Answer
Yomaira,

Microfiber is very cleanable.  I would at least try to clean it before you ditch it.  If you don't want to have it done professionally, rent a small cleaning machine from the grocery store or a hardware store.  Just make sure you use less shampoo than the instructions tell you to.  Keep going over the dark spot and hopefully it will come out.  If you need help with more specific instructions, let me know after you rent the machine.
