Vacuum

  What it means is to do a deep vacuum to remove as much of the dirt as possible.  Furniture covered in material becomes a very large filtering system to your home. 

All of the dust floating around settles onto your upholstery, and when you sit upon it, you grind the dust right into the material.  This can change the color to your furniture and break down the fibers in the material.

  This of course eventually leads to a small tare in the fabric, and now you’re on your way to possibly having to recover the piece.

Rinse
