Recycled Velvet
Our Recycled Velvet fabric can be cleaned with gentle household cleaning products. If possible, place a clean towel behind the fabric to absorb any excess moisture. We recommend spraying and dabbing all the way to the seams to avoid any water rings from drying. This fabric can also be machine washed on delicate with cold water and then air dried or tumble dried with no heat.
Upcycled Poly
Our Upcycled Poly fabric is inherently stain-resistant and can be cleaned with household cleaning products, including a bleach solution, without being damaged. Most general house cleaners will work, as long as they are NOT solvent-based (most are not). We recommend spraying and dabbing all the way to the seams to avoid any water rings from drying. Alternatively, you can also hand wash (do not put our upcycled poly in the washing machine) with cold water and air dry - no heat. Do not iron our Upcycled Poly!
Upcycled Poly Bleach Solution
Most stains can be removed by making a solution of 1 ounce of bleach to 30 ounces of water in a clean spray bottle (Most spray bottles are 32 ounces). If possible, place a clean towel behind the fabric to absorb any excess moisture. Set the nozzle to “fan” the spray pattern and wet out the entire side of the cover where the stain is. Then wipe the entire cover with a clean cloth to remove any excess moisture. Spray the same area with clean water to rinse the bleach solution out of the fabric. Again, wipe the entire cover with a clean cloth to remove any excess moisture. Allow the cover to air dry.
Transfer Pilling
Our Upcycled Poly fabric has an abrasion resistance of 75,000 double rubs. What that means is it’s built to last and is pill-resistant. You won’t have issues with your Sabai product pilling.
However, if you wear clothing or use blankets/throws that are prone to pilling or accumulating lint, those pill & lint balls can get stuck in the weave of the Upcycled Poly fabric, which might make it seem like your sofa fabric is pilling. The good news is that this is also a very solvable problem! If pill balls accumulate on your furniture, we recommend using a tool such as this Pilling Remover to get it looking brand new again. You can also use a sharp razor blade to remove the pill balls, going slowly and carefully so as to not damage the fabric. This may take more time and may not be as effective.
Hemp & Striped Hemp Blend
Machine wash on gentle with cold water. Do not bleach and wash only with similar colors. Lay flat to air dry, do not tumble dry to avoid the possibility of shrinkage or fraying. Ironing and steaming are okay on low heat to reduce wrinkles, be sure not to leave the heat on one spot for too long and move continuously.
MINNA Fabric
Our MINNA Fabric slipcovers can be machine-washed on a delicate/gentle cycle with cold water. After washing, lay flat to air-dry. Do not bleach and wash only with similar colors. For spot cleaning, dampen the stained area with cold water using a clean white cloth. Leave the spot damp for 10-15 minutes and then gently blot with a dry wipe or with a cloth from both sides to draw out the stain. Avoid using any bleach or acidic cleaners, as they can damage the fabric.
