Home management specialists from the University of Illinois College of Agriculture advise thorough shampooing as a clean-up for upholstered furniture if the fabric is color fast. Prepare soap jelly by mixing 1 cup hot water with 2 cups mild soap flakes and beating into a jelly, then test fabric color fastness before proceeding.
