Manual Cleaning

Localized Spots
For small stains, apply a solution of warm water and a mild detergent directly to the stain. Dab gently with a clean cloth until the stain is removed. Do not rub, as this may damage the fibers.
Rinse
After cleaning the stain, rinse the area with a damp cloth to remove any soap residue, then pat dry with a dry cloth.

IMPORTANT NOTES

“Washable” Colors for Children

Our rug chenille rug is washable, but water-based colors labeled "washable," such as tempera or watercolor, are difficult to remove. The structure of the fabric, similar to porous materials, allows the pigments to penetrate deep into the microfiber. For best results, we recommend treating stains immediately with warm water and mild detergents, repeating the process several times until completely removed before the color dries.
