Hi Paul

Do you know if this suite was bought from Laura Ashley?

Paul

I am assuming the 23% Buxton relates to the checked pattern that must be on the suite,  this would be the part thats cotton.

Does this sound right? does it have a checked pattern on it?

Paul,

I wet clean almost all materials ,  subject to a colour bleed test.

With this type of suite I would make sure not to get it too wet.

Cheers,

Doug

yes agreed,

90- 95% of suites nowdays can be wet cleaned safely with just a few precautions.
