Interior cleaning question

Post by Phasmatis » Wed Jul 23, 2008 1:01 pm

I have a pleather couch that needs to be cleaned. It has been in my garage all winter and spring and up to now. People have sat on it, things are on it and along the bottom a bit of grime/grease is evident. I am wondering what you all suggest to clean the beast of a couch. It is a white pleather couch and will be moved inside very shortly.

Tricked you all with the wrong interior :) heh heh :)

soap and water I would assume, since it is basically plastic.

Go to Home Depot. there is this thing they sell called a hammer. Buy one and hit yourself with it. :lol:

After you're done, I would try soap and water on the couch!

Try a steam cleaner on that it should bring it out then wipe it off.

I knew it was a joke lol but honestly, oddly enough, i did not link it to the rick james jokes lol. Scuff your couch!

I was thinking of steam cleaning like randomzero said but i was unsure whether it would further damage an already worn fake-leather couch lol... classy.
