What are you guys using to clean synthetic upholstery ? Trying to get through a case of Outset from
Jon Don. Basically its private lable Kleenrite product prespray as I understand it. it works very well.. But I'll probably switch over to Masterblend's Upholstery Prespray. Using the Impression rinse from
Jon Don as well. But I've also had great success with using O2 as an upholstery cleaner. I don't like using it as often because while most people don't have an irratation from air borne delimone. Many people find it be a skin irratant who normally wouldn't expect it. So I try to be selective about using it on upholstery.
What about synthetic/natural blends ? Most are poly cotton I run into but occaionally some wool and other more weird fibers? I've had good success with the outset with an
all fiber rinse. I also use MB Fine Fabric Prespray with good success as well as an oriental rug shampoo or fine fabric shampoo from PC.
What about raw cottons ? In house I stay on acid side, keep moisture to a minimum and speed dry.. never had a browning problem as long as I'm souring it out afterwards and drying quickly.
How about the dreaded eggshell white LINEN ? .. Again I keep it soured an absolute low moisture. If I'm sensing a problem after testig, I will use a cotton shampoo dry foam method.
How do you deal with stablizing dyes if the piece is not colorfast ? If I think its going to bleed I check my acid and my alkaline and see is one less likely to bleed. Alot of times an acid rinse like glaciel acetic acid will set your dyes. Also using hot water can loosen dyes quicker than cold water so If I have to I'll use cold water extraction instead of hot water. But I make sure to get it dry as quick as possible and again limit the moisture and test test test.
