A printed velvet upholstery fabric is very easy to clean. The flat surface of the fabric prevents foreign objects from sticking to it. Velvet is a very durable fabric, and unlike other types of fabrics, it does not wrinkle. The fabric also has no raised weaves or loose threads. In addition, it does not bleed or stain, making it a great choice for upholstery.
Traditionally, velvet was made of silk. However, today velvet can be made of synthetic materials, such as nylon and polyester. In addition to being soft and luxurious, velvet can absorb sound, making it ideal for soft furnishings. The process of producing velvet is complex and expensive, which is one of the reasons why it's known as a luxurious material.
It is essential to clean your velvet upholstery fabric regularly. If it becomes stained, use the cleaning solvent recommended by the manufacturer. Often, it is easier to squeak out excess liquid from loose cushions and arms, which will avoid leaving a larger wet spot. For more difficult stains, apply pressure to the area to flatten the pile.
