    I doubt if you have a suede couch, as suede is unfinished leather. You couch is probably micro-fiber and resembles suede. Spot cleaning microfiber will leave water marks or rings. If it has removable cushions, you can un zip the zipper and pull the foam out. Now you can handwash the cushion material in the kitchen sink, using clear or white dishsoap. Do not use a dyed dish soap, as the microfiber may take on some of the color. Do not use the washing machine or dryer. Continue to handwash the fabric until the stain as completely dissolved and rinsed free. You can now vacuum the moisture from the fabric with a shop vac, or remove excessive moisture with terrry cloth towels. Get help to replace the foam in to the still damp cushion cover. This normally takes three hands. Stand the cushion on end and allow it to dry. If the stain is elsewhere on the couch or the cushions are un removable, call a professional carpet/upholstery cleaner to salvage the couch. Go to www.iicrc.org., to locate a certified pro near you.

    Wipe the ice cream off with white vinegar and then sprinkle some baking soda on it to soak up the cream that has sunken into the cloth. Repeat back day after on the instant because of the fact the scent of a potential bitter scent will take place. Then rub a clean towel over it numerous situations to assist dry it and additionally to deliver back the nap of the fabric.
