Removing Ink Stains from Fabric Sofas

Removing ink stains from fabric and leather sofas is definitely a serious headache for anyone without experience in the field.

Ink is an extremely difficult substance to remove, especially from leather upholstery — the wrong treatment can ruin the upholstery completely, or simply spread the stain wider.

A very common mistake people make is trying to solve the problem themselves — their chances of success are only around ten percent.

On the flip side, there's a ninety percent chance of causing damage that can't be fixed.

Removing ink stains from leather or fabric upholstery needs to be done with products created specifically for the job, and matched to fabric or leather without compromising the quality of the upholstery.

Removing ink stains from fabric sofas is a relatively straightforward process, with a success rate of over ninety percent!!

First, we spray a product that dissolves the ink and separates it from the fabric fibers.

Next, we spray the entire sofa with cleaning products and clean water to ensure even coverage and prevent color differences at the end of the job.

After waiting about ten to fifteen minutes, we begin the cleaning itself, done using a machine that performs two actions at once (injection and extraction). If the stain is stubborn and still remains, we'll also do a gentle scrub using a special brush designed for fabric upholstery.

Removing ink stains from leather sofas is a bit different from fabric upholstery, since here the entire job is done by hand. The cleaning isn't done with machines, so as not to damage the upholstery during the process.

How much does removing ink stains from a sofa cost?

The price varies depending on the type of fabric, the structure of the sofa, whether the cushions are removable or not, and of course its condition.

Instead of a rough estimate, you can find out exactly what it should cost, with no obligation!

All you need to do is photograph the sofa and send us the picture via WhatsApp to get an instant price quote.

After professional cleaning to remove ink stains from a sofa, when can we sit on it again?
