How To Clean Durapella?

Post New Topic

My daughter spilt juice all over our durapella couch. I tried wiping it up with alcohol, water, and even tried to use my shampooer on it. Nothing took out the stain and it only made it worse. Any advice?

Oh!!! I wish I'd seen your question earlier. I have 2 durapella couches and have had spills and even ink on them - and they cleaned up perfectly!!! You just have to do it right. Here's a link to a download a video to show you exactly how to do it. Hope this will help for the future! This is amazing fabric.

I don't have an answer, I have a question. How can you clean urine? My niece had an accident on my couch but I didn't find it until hours later. I have tried getting wet cloths and wetting the area then getting dry towels and putting on the area and standing on the cushions. I know that I need to get it off because of the acid but I don't know exactly how. There are no professional cleaners within 2 hours of my house. Help!

Yes--get a professional out there to clean it before it is ruined. I applaud your effort (I would have tried too) but when it gets to be too much, get a pro in there! Probably cost you around $60.
