Clean your upholstery using the purchased supplies. Dab any liquids that have recently spilled on your upholstery. If stains are older, apply the upholstery-cleaning product to a soft cloth and dab the stain. Only use a solvent-based cleaner if you have a cotton upholstery piece. If you have synthetic upholstery, you can use a water-based cleaner. Avoid scrubbing with too much pressure. Follow instructions on the back of the cleaner and try to use as little of it as possible. If you need more to remove a stain, you can always perform a second application.
