# How to Get Putty off of a Sofa
Putty is a pliable substance mainly derived from silicone. Silly Putty or Thinking Putty are among brand-name putties. Children enjoy molding, bouncing and transferring images to their glob of putty. If a child plays with putty on the sofa and leaves it there for an extended period of time, the putty can get stuck to the sofa fibers. Fortunately, removal of the putty is relatively simple.
