Assessment route and next steps

  1. For polyester upholstery, confirm fiber, care label, backing and color stability before choosing care for this situation (fruit juice spill). A method suited to the face material may not suit the foam, backing or dyes.
  2. Keep the area clear, record the product and time, and avoid rubbing, heating or combining removers. Where manufacturer guidance permits, absorb liquid without spreading it; if material compatibility is unclear, preserve the condition for assessment.
