Use a vacuum with a soft brush attachment to remove dust and debris from the surface of your suede couch. Regular vacuuming prevents dirt from embedding into the fabric.
Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove surface dirt. Brushing in different directions helps maintain the suede’s soft texture.
For small stains, blot the area with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid rubbing, as this can push the stain deeper into the fabric.
For tougher stains, use a suede eraser or a white pencil eraser. Rub gently to lift the stain without damaging the suede.
Mix equal parts white vinegar and water. Dampen a cloth with the solution and blot the stain gently. This helps remove water-soluble stains without damaging the suede.
Do not use harsh chemicals or cleaning agents on suede. These can damage the fabric and alter its texture.
