BOYA Fabric Stain Removal Guide: Complete Protocol for Upholstery Wholesalers & Hotel Buyers

Different fabric types require different cleaning approaches. Using the wrong method can permanently damage the fabric.

Chenille: Vacuum weekly. Spot clean with mild soap and water. Avoid rubbing — blot instead. Professional cleaning recommended annually. Never use bleach.

Velvet: Brush with a soft bristle brush to maintain pile direction. Steam cleaning recommended for deep cleans. Test cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first.

Microfiber: Most stain-resistant of the three. Mild soap and water work for most spills. For oil-based stains, rubbing alcohol on a white cloth. Microfiber can handle more aggressive cleaning.

Performance fabric: Water-based stains wipe clean with a damp cloth. For set-in stains, dilute 1:10 bleach solution (check manufacturer spec first). Bleach-cleanable fabrics are available for healthcare settings.

The #1 mistake wholesalers see: end users using carpet cleaners on upholstery fabric. The chemicals are too harsh and break down the backing. Always recommend fabric-specific cleaning products.
