Having almost finish cleaning this sofa, with one cushion left to clean, I looked back and realised my mistake :-)

If we are talking nightmares do what I did on Tuesday , cleaned a suite and did my usual amazing job

As I was cleaning the living room I didn't put any dust sheets down, (why should I , if I make a mess off the carpet it doesn't matter)

The overspray had lightly wetted the carpet, the suite had mohagany feet, I'm sure you can guess the result not just dye marks but huge stripes where we had pulled the suite across the carpet.

Luckily they cleaned out but I was crapping bricks as we cleaned the carpet,

A rookie mistake, not to be repeated.

Joking apart - I was panicking a bit when I saw the results of my 5 minute dye test, but it cleaned up fine using the low moisture shampoo method:

I saw one once where the suit had been "cleaned" by cowboys.

I moved it across the room and found a bleached, three sided rectangular mark that corresponded to the plan shape of the suite (imagine someone had painted a football goal post white then laid it down on top of the carpet).

I can only assume that it was high PH pre-spray that had dripped from the front and sides (they had obviously not sprayed the back!) on to the carpet.

Why bother doing a dye test on a single coloured fabric?
I would have HWE it, no problem.

Disagree....you could suck the colour out leaving it lighter and patchy
