Tips for cleaning velvet: How to keep your velvet furniture beautiful for a long time

Velvet furniture not only looks exclusive, but is also easy to care for. For regular cleaning, it is sufficient to vacuum your sofa or armchair with a vacuum cleaner and a suitable upholstery attachment. Make sure that the vacuum cleaner does not have too much suction - a maximum of 1000 watts to avoid damaging the cover.

Even if it is almost unavoidable, the first stain will appear on your velvet furniture at some point. But don't worry, with the following tips the velvet will quickly shine again without leaving any lasting damage:

1. Immediate action: Whenever there is a stain, it is important to notice it immediately and treat it quickly.
2. Gently dab: First, gently dab the stain with an absorbent paper or cloth to remove as much liquid as possible.
3. How to use upholstery shampoo: Apply upholstery shampoo to a cloth and gently work it into the stain. Be careful not to apply the cleaner directly to the velvet fabric to avoid discoloration. Do not rub vigorously, but work the shampoo gently into the fibers. Then clean the area with a damp, unused cloth.
4. Remove dry dirt: Older encrustations, dust or dry dirt can easily be brushed out with a clothes brush. Always brush in the direction of the grain and do not press too hard. Alternatively, you can moisten the dirt with a damp cloth and carefully remove it.

With these tips you can clean your velvet furniture effectively and preserve its beauty for a long time
