I would like to use this on my red couch, but I worry about it changing color. Anyone with experience using this on fabric? Many thanks.

I have not used it on fabric. I checked the label and it says it is suitable for use on surfaces; nothing about using it on fabric

I was concerned about exactly the same thing. Our furniture is in our living room and i didn't want to mess it up! I contacted Chamberlain Customer Service and this was their reply: "Yes, Furniture Treatment No. 5 is fine for use on color-dyed leather. You shouldn't have a problem as long as the color-dyed leather has been properly sealed. With lighter colored leathers, especially highly absorbent soft leathers, No. 5 can darken them. We don't recommend using Furniture Treatment No. 5 on extremely soft-type leathers or suede." Still I was a bit nervous because my couches are soft leather, but a neutral tan color. It brought out the rich color of the leather which I was really pleased with! I would try it in a inconspicuous spot like all these people tell us! Good Luck!

This formula is designed for use on upholstery including microfiber. Make sure you check the manufacturer tag on your couch, if it has a W or WS listed it should be safe to use but its always a good idea to test in an inconspicuous area first. If the tag has a S or X we would not recommend using this formula

I have used it on couch cushions with good results. As with any product, I would try a little in an inconspicuous area first.

I have never cleaned a couch with it and would be concerned that the steam may alter the color in the fabric. A test on a small section may be prudent before proceeding on the entire couch.

Yes, I have used it on a burgundy leather couch, loveseat, and chair. I would not have used it on any of those unless I did a small test area on the back of the couch first. I used this same products cleaning spray first and then the conditioner. There was a small amount of the dye that did come off of the couch. It did not damage the couch but some of the dye did rub off. Again, it was a burgundy colored leather.

Hi Deanna, this is what I used it for. I have a very expensive leather sofa that looked warn. This does a great job of cleaning and softening the leather (leaves sort of a natural sheen). I use it on my sofa every six months or so. From now on, this is the only product I will use on dyed leather. It will darken natural leather. Love the stuff.

It really depends on the fabric type, I've had great success removing the color from some things while other things it didn't work at all.

It depends on the type of material that is on your couch. I have solid cotton material on mine and the stains just won't come out. I had the couch before I got my dogs. :+( But if the material on your couch is fairly porous, it just might work and also if it is not a solid color.

i really dont think so. if it where to at all, the fabric would have to be very white but it will wash right out. i soak mine in water and put it in a spray can and spray on fabric, clothes, couch, carpet and nothing has been stained. i say go for it! it smells great! have a wonderful wedding.

I used this on a brocade fabric and can say that it did not change the "feel" of the fabric. This product was recommended to me by a friend that owns a high end upholstery shop. I am very happy with the way this product has protected my sofa and carpets and would recommend that you test it on an inconspicuous place on the corduroy. If you aren't able to use it on the corduroy I have no doubt that you will find it beneficial for protecting other fabrics and carpeting.

I don't think you should use this product on any fabric. It says," do not allow x-14 to come in contact with clothing, carpeting, or other fabrics, which may becom discolored or damaged." I'm not sure what kind of products of fabric and leather you have but most likely you would just need to scrub and remove mold with leather cleaner/ baby shampoo . Check on Internet/YouTube!

I wouldn't use this for a large couch. The cost would be prohibitive because it would take a enormous amount of paint to make it even toned. Believe it or not, you can actually paint fabric with a primer and latex. It is a long process, but looks beautiful when completed. I painted a futon cushion and it came out looking like a mild leather finish and soft to the touch. Hope this helps you and answers your question. Good luck.

It's safe for couches as far as I know, but, it makes the leather very dark, and by dark, I mean almost black. On a sample I did on our brown Nubuck leather couch, it also left an oily feeling, even after some time. I ended up using another product on our leather couch that didn't leave a residue, and didn't make it so dark.

I would only use it on whites. It really gets them bright white. It is a bleach alternative, but I would not use it on colored fabric.

I have used it on couches and chairs and it worked well. I would just recommend a color test in a small hidden spot to make sure.

It didn't really seem to work for me, maybe it would for you. Try the back of the couch or area not seen first to make sure it doesn't stain. Good luck!
