For those of you who like details I’ll give you a brief description of how we clean.
Wet Cleaning: The best way to clean is with water. If your fabric can be wet cleaned that is how we will clean it.

This additive “invites” or “attracts” the soil to it, taking or transferring the soil from your furniture into itself and out of your fabric. The rinse water is not recycled, and your furniture is left nearly dry. We use the same wet method for cleaning carpeting…
