Can you clean a microfiber couch without watermarks?
Yes. Microfiber is almost always code W or WS, it takes water-based cleaning fine. The trick is consistent moisture across the whole piece and a groomed fiber pass after. Spot-cleaning a microfiber cushion with a rag is what creates the ring-shaped watermarks; whole-cushion extraction doesn't.
Do you clean leather?
We clean bonded and finished leather, condition, not extract. True aniline and nubuck leather goes to a specialist; we'll tell you which one. Mixed-material pieces (leather frame with fabric cushions) we handle in two passes.
