How to remove grease from upholstery Lancashire

Are you looking for advice on how to remove grease from your upholstery? We were recently invited to help deep clean this recliner chair. When we arrived, we could see that the chair had a lot of head grease that had discoloured the fabric. Alongside this, it was also evident that the chair could definitely benefit from an all over deep clean.

While head grease will build up over time, it is important to keep on top of it. It is unsightly and unfortunately can smell.  If you are faced with head grease on your upholstery sofa, it is important not to panic. The trick is not to panic and to avoid doing anything that could make it worse. You can make grease stains worse by rubbing them. This can often spread the stain further into the fibres.

The reason why oil and grease stains have such a bad reputation is because the challenge to remove them. So many solutions cannot cut through the stain and end up making it worse. Effectively they spread the grease further. Either that or the cleaning solution removes the stain and then leaves residue behind.
