Spills happen. With the three most common couch stains, the trick is to act fast and blot, never rub. Here is what to do for each.
Coffee
Blot up as much as you can with a dry cloth. Mix a little dish soap with cool water, dab gently, then blot dry. Avoid hot water, which can set the stain.
Red wine
Blot immediately. Sprinkle a little salt to absorb the liquid, then dab with cool water. Do not scrub, which spreads the color deeper into the fibers.
Ink
Ink is the toughest. Dab very lightly with a tiny amount of rubbing alcohol on a white cloth and blot. Test a hidden spot first, and stop if color transfers.
When to call a pro
