If using Dr. Beckmann Upholstery Stain Remover has worsened the stain on your sofa, don’t worry—this can happen due to a reaction between the cleaning agent and the fabric or stain residue. Here are steps to help you address the issue and improve the appearance of your sofa:


1. Blot, Don’t Rub

  • Use a clean, dry cloth or paper towel to gently blot the area. Avoid rubbing, as this can spread the stain further into the fabric fibers.

2. Rinse the Area

  • Lightly dampen a clean sponge or microfiber cloth with lukewarm water and blot the affected area. This can help remove any residue left by the stain remover.
  • Avoid soaking the area, as too much water can damage the sofa padding.

3. Use a White Vinegar Solution

  • Mix one part white vinegar with two parts water.
  • Apply the solution to the stain using a spray bottle or a clean cloth.
  • Blot the area gently with a damp cloth to lift the stain and neutralize any remaining cleaning product.

4. Apply Dish Soap Solution

  • Mix a few drops of mild dish soap with warm water to create suds.
  • Dip a clean cloth into the sudsy water and gently dab the stained area.
  • Blot with a damp cloth to rinse away the soap residue.

5. Baking Soda for Odors and Residue

  • Sprinkle baking soda generously over the damp area.
  • Let it sit for several hours or overnight to absorb moisture and odors.
  • Vacuum the area thoroughly.
