Steps to Remove Rouge Stains from Outdoor Furniture

  1. Start by preparing a solution of 1/4 cup bleach to 1 gallon of warm water. Mix the solution well and use it to dampen a white cloth.
  2. Blot the stain with the damp cloth. Do not rub or scrub the stain, as this could make it worse.
  3. Let the solution sit on stain for a few minutes to allow it to work its way into the fabric.
  4. Using a wet-dry vacuum, vacuum up any remaining moisture from the stained area.
  5. Mix 1 tablespoon of mild liquid detergent with 2 cups of cool water. Use this to dampen a clean white cloth.
  6. Gently blot the stained area with the damp cloth, working from the outside of the stain inward.
  7. Continue blotting the stain until all of the rouge is removed.
  8. Rinse the area with cool water until the detergent is gone.
  9. Once again, use a wet-dry vacuum to remove all of the moisture from the stained area.
  10. Finally, let furniture dry completely before using it again.

Additional Tips & Tricks

  • Be sure to use a gentle detergent. Harsh cleaners may damage the fibers of the fabric.
  • If the stain is stubborn, try applying a paste made of baking soda and water. Let the paste sit on stain for 30 minutes before rinsing it off.
  • Always test any cleaning solution on an inconspicuous area first, to make sure it won't damage the fabric.
  • If the stain persists after following these steps, consider investing in a professional upholstery cleaning service.
