For water-soluble upholstery, rent or purchase an upholstery cleaning machine and shampoo. Use a chemical cleaning agent if the couch is covered in cotton, rayon or silk, working the product in with soft upholstery brushes. remove the Soil that has been captured by the cleaning agent as a final step in the couch restoration.

Clean wood trim and other non-upholstery couch fittings with mild soap. If the wood sections are damaged or scarred, consider sanding and staining them while you wait for the upholstery to dry.

When the couch is dry and you've completed the job, apply a spray-on product such as scotchgard to all surface areas of the upholstery to keep it from attracting grime in the future.

gaitan...
 
First, cotton looks horrible when you first clean it...but when it drys, it looks great..
 
Just make sure to wet the entire thing, cotton has a habbit of getting water rings  if you only wet in sections. When i say wet, I dont mean firehose it either...dry dry dry
 
use cold to mild water
 
 
 
 
I dont predict the future or sell glides, am I allowed on this site?

Actually cotton is about 15% stronger when it's wet.

Gaitan,

Whoever told you that cotton is a delicate fibre?

It is relatively strong due to its structure - layers of minute, criss-crossed spiral fibrules of which the fibre is composed. It can be further strengthened by the yarning.

Being a cellulosic fibre it can suffer from browning but this and possible shrinkage is easily avoided by proper cleaning practice which will avoid the over-wetting and extended drying times that can be responsible.
