Upholstery cleaning day

[Mark Saiger]

Think there were 4 couches per Resort cabin today (5 cabins) and then about 5 chairs and recliners per cabin....and the carpet cleaning was a breeze.

Older Polyester combo couch today from the 1980's was the interesting one of the day....

And I couldn't find my Polyester Pill remover in either van....just like the old Polyester sweaters...Pilling up...so we were pulling them off by hand best we could....

Client was more than pleased and entertained.... ( and she loved Minnesota Made Seal-A-Door!)

That's quite the tool and that upholstery gizmo seems to work well too.

that's my favorite fabric to clean..


No grooming, go any direction, everything comes out and no fear of over wetting or browning...or shrinkage

Yep....only thing that we disliked on this was the little fuzz balls that were stuck everywhere....

Do you use an electric pill remover, like the ones for wool sweaters?

Zeego blocks (pumice stone) work well but stink while using them for removing pills.

I have a couple of hand held little shaving units for this.... And could not find a one in either van....

Guess I put them away better than I remember

Time to strip out the vans!

I feel your pain, Mark. Nothing worse than sitting on fuzzy balls.

I actually used this today on a dog hair encrusted sofa:

Worked REALLY well both to remove/loosen up the hair and to agitate the heavily soiled areas. I thought it would be too aggressive but it is just right on certain fabrics.

Not sure it would work on pills. Will have to see.
