Tips
If the code on the tag attached to the microfiber item has a ‘W’ in it, that means you can use water to clean it. If the code doesn’t have a ‘W’, or if you can’t find the tag, don’t get water anywhere near it.
Don’t get microfiber - which is also called microsuede - wet! Brush dirt off gently, and either use a special microsuede cleaner on it or take it to a dry cleaner and have it cleaned by a professional.
Blot them off with a towel, but don’t rub. Keep soaking the spill up until the microfiber is dry.
You can actually wash the kind of microfiber towels that are used for cleaning electronics, jewelry and eyeglasses. Wash them on gentle cycle with cold water in your washing machine, just use a little bit of detergent and no bleach or fabric softener. Hang them somewhere to air dry. Heat can melt microfiber, so don’t use your dryer for this unless it has an ‘Air Dry’ setting.
You should vaccum your microfiber furniture every few weeks to keep it looking nice. Use the brush and hose attachment that you’d normally use to clean furniture or curtains.
