Jelly. Tips to remove Jelly stains on upholstery

Jelly on crackers, toast, bagels and so much more, but sometimes it is jelly on your upholstery.

Get out jelly stains fast and easily using these great cleaning tips. It doesn’t matter if your stain is fresh or dried, here is how you can start out:

Wet the upholstery using a spray of water, and let this sit for just a bit. Blot and dab with a clean towel and bring out the moisture from the upholstery, bringing the jelly with it. Repeat this as long as you are bringing out the jelly from the fabric.

If you still have an jelly stain in the upholstery, make a mixture of water and a few drops of clear bleach free detergent. Spray this on the jelly stain and blot the moisture out bringing out the jelly with the moisture.

Keep changing the portion of your towel so you know if you are still bringing jelly out of the upholstery. Rinse the fabric using a spray of clear water, dabbing and blotting the moisture out of the upholstery, bringing with it the jelly and the suds from the detergent.

Repeat until you aren’t bringing out any more suds from the detergent. Rinse the upholstery once again using a mixture of water and vinegar. A half and half mixture works great. Spray on the upholstery and blot off bringing any remains of the jelly with the moisture.
