How to clean a bouclette furniture ?
In recent years, bouclette fabric has been enjoying a resurgence in popularity, establishing itself as a must-have for interior decoration. With its soft and fluffy texture, bouclette promises a feeling of softness, bringing a warm and cocooning atmosphere to your interior. Another advantage of bouclette is that this fabric is not very fragile and therefore rather easy to maintain. Here are our tips for maintaining your bouclette furniture.
Good habits to adopt
Although bouclette is not a particularly fragile fabric, it still requires maintenance. One of the disadvantages of bouclette sofas and other furniture made from this fabric is that they easily collect dust. To preserve its shine over time, here are some habits to adopt. - Regular dusting Using a soft-bristled brush or a vacuum cleaner with a suitable brush, dust your furniture regularly to prevent dirt from accumulating between its fibers. - Brushing the bouclette In order to preserve its soft texture, regular brushing prevents the loops from tangling and flattening, thus maintaining the appearance of the fabric.
Our advice
- Test before use: Before applying these products to stains, test them on a small, hidden area of your furniture, such as the back of the sofa. - Professional cleaning: For particularly stubborn stains or high-value furniture, consider hiring a professional cleaning service.
How to clean a loop sofa?
Have you just accidentally stained your terry sofa? Don’t panic! However, it is recommended to act quickly and not let the stain dry, as this would make removal more difficult. There are different cleaning methods available to you.
Talc, your best ally
For grease stains, talcum powder can be very effective:
1. Sprinkle the stained surface generously with talcum powder. This will act as an absorbent, attracting the residue embedded in the loops of the fabric.
2. Leave it to act for a few hours, or even overnight if possible.
After the setting time, gently remove the talcum powder using a soft-bristled brush or a vacuum cleaner, so as not to damage the fabric.
Cleaning with soapy water
As soon as a stain appears on your boucle furniture, follow these steps:
1. Dampen a clean cloth with water and a little mild soap.
2. Gently dab the stain to absorb it and make it disappear. Avoid rubbing so as not to damage the fabric.
3. Let the surface air dry for a few hours before using your boucle sofa, armchair or ottoman again.
Baking soda to clean terry cloth
If the stain persists, baking soda can be an effective solution:
1. Mix baking soda with a little water to form a paste.
2. Apply this paste to the stain and let it sit for one to two hours.
3. Gently scrub the affected area with a soft-bristled brush.
4. Vacuum up any remaining residue to finish cleaning.
