Remove the loose cushion

Carefully remove all the loose cushion of the upholstery. This will help you evaluate if your dining chair needs a new padding cushion or not. Removing the cushion will also prevent it from having a moldy smell which is usually the effect when a foam is soaked with water. Instead take away any cushion padding and place it under the heat of the sun.

Vacuum the chair

Brush the corners and edges of your dining chair with a brush or feather duster to get rid of dust and other small dirt particles. Use a vacuum cleaner to get rid of all the loosened dirt that is left. Vacuum diligently the different parts of your dining chairs, including the surfaces and the sides. Also vacuum the loosened cushion padding to get as well get rid of any remaining dirt.

Replace new cushion coverings

After vacuuming the cushion padding, change the cushion cover. Make sure that the new coverings are also clean and fresh. Fluff the cushion foam to add volume and shape. Set aside the newly changed cushion. Make sure to have it easily ready after the rest of the dining chair gets cleaned up.

Prepare and test the soapsuds

Prepare the soapsuds by mixing 1/4 cup washing detergent with a cup of warm water. Mix it thoroughly with an electric blender to produce a frothy consistency with the soap lather. Do not directly rub the soapsuds into the dining chair. Instead, with a fabric take a small amount of soapsuds and rub it to a very small portion of the dining chair’s back part. Allow it to draw and observe any shrinkage, discoloration, or any significant visual formation. If any of this reactions appear, have your upholstered furniture cleaned by a professional cleaner. However proceed to the next steps if no significant reaction will occur.

Apply the soapsuds and scrape the dirt

With a fabric, rub the entire dining chair with the soapsuds. Let it dry as dirt will start to come out in the soapsuds. Carefully scrape the soapsuds away with a scraper. Repeat the whole rubbing process until no dirt is visible.

Rinse and dry

Rinse the dining chair with a damp fabric. Carefully get rid of all the remaining soapsuds residue as you let it dry. Have your dining chair in the open air to dry overnight. You may also use a blower or electric fan to quickly dry it.
