Its probably not a prob with quality fabrics. I did find a batch of cheap imported lounges from Bali a while back. Very deep colours such as black or dark brown lounges would release dyes into say white pants. Crocking = dye transfer from one textile to another when in contact. Its good to have on hand both the Mr NoMarks Fabric cleaner and Fabrisan. One after-thought... these fabrics are quite thick and not so pliable, so they may not lend themselves to going on tightly detailed chairs. This is why most macrofibre lounges are pretty flat and plain in style. Around arms for example, they will have a series of folds to curve around. So if your chairs are a plain squarish style, no probs. If more curvey, speak to an upholsterer before getting you fabric. Ash. Re: Living With Warwick Fabrics Macrosuede 16Jul 26, 2010 11:56 am thanks for that infor re the weight of the macrosuede, Ash !! very helpful I'll keep that in mind when I contact my upholsterer Built the Eden Brae Cambridge 34 Family with Boston Corner Facade Re: Living With Warwick Fabrics Macrosuede 17Jul 26, 2010 1:33 pm Ash, I only ever use water and a cloth. Never cleaned it with anything else. I'm not sure where my couch is on the quality scale, it's a Divans one and I've had it around 11 years. It's ugly, but was the first piece of NEW furniture I ever bought, so it's not going anywhere. I'm not sure if I'll get to it today Southies, I have a sick DS home from school. But it will be tonight or tomorrow. It has to be done. I leave you to fend for yourself, figure things out yourself. Terrence Malick Re: Living With Warwick Fabrics Macrosuede 18Jul 26, 2010 2:04 pm Try getting some Fabrisan (Mr NoMarks) and use a microfibre mit, or a bonnet mit from a commercial cleaning supply place, followed by a clean colourfast towel to dry off. Do section at a time. Spray a section as uniformly as you can, work it all in with the mit, and wipe excess off with the towel. You can be a bit more vigorous on spots or more soiled area. Equestrian brushes can be used. Allow to fully dry before re-use. Better still get a professional in, but thats your call. Cheers! Re: Living With Warwick Fabrics Macrosuede 19Jul 26, 2010 2:08 pm Nah, it really is just a spare at this stage, sits in a room we dry clothes in, so I'm not going to bother too much with it. I leave you to fend for yourself, figure things out yourself.
