Here's what you'll need

• Washing-up liquid

• White vinegar

• Baking soda

• Warm water

Baking soda and white vinegar combined make a potent pair for tackling tough stains. The reaction between these two ingredients forms a mildly acidic solution that effectively cuts through grease and grime.

Here's how to do it

Firstly, prepare your cleaning solution. Mix a teaspoon each of washing-up liquid, white vinegar, baking soda, and warm water.

Stir until it forms a frothy lather - watch as the baking soda and vinegar combine to create a powerful cleaning agent. Next, apply the mixture to any visible stains or marks on your fabric sofa. Leave it to dry for about 10 minutes.

Finally, clean the area. Once the solution has dried, wipe the area with a clean cloth to remove any remaining residue. Your sofa should now look fresh and free from stains.
