If you have Microsuede/microfiber furniture

I saw on Pinterest a tip about cleaning them (maybe MMT had pinned it?) and since our dark brown microsuede couch was looking disgusting after less than 2 years of having it I thought I'd try it. OMG it looks brand new!!

I put rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle, sprayed it on the cushion (not saturating it) then rubbed vigorously with a sponge (use one with the soft scrubber on one side and that isn't colored because it may discolor the couch), then took a white scrub brush and went over it again. I seriously couldn't believe it. And after it dries it doesn't smell like alcohol (which I love the smell of rubbing alcohol so I did this in the midst of recovering from food poisoning).

  • Yup.  I pinned it.  I am beyond excited to try it out.

    Thanks for letting us know that it actually works!!

    yes you can. we had K&M do ours about 6 months ago. it looked awesome and brand new after it was done, but like i said above, it was expensive. we have a sectional.

    you could probably do it yourself though and save a lot of money that way too.
