How do I clean chocolate stains off my office chair?

Question

I've noticed that crumbs from my daily chocolate brownie have been falling on my office chair, and even though I brush them off they have built up a bit of a noticible stain.
Although I could ask our company facilities team to clean it there must be a cheaper way to do this myself?

Thanks

Answer 1

Make sure you do NOT use cleaning solvents first...............USE COLD WATER (not ice water) use damp cloth to blot some of the stains off. If you don't care about nappy fabric on chair use a light bristle brush. Do it before leaving work so it can dry overnight, or, bring towels to absorb and to sit on.

It’s real easy to spill chocolate on your seat upholstery grabbing a quick snack, question is what’s the best way to clean it off?

Well, if it’s a big lump begin by wrapping an ice cube in cling film and hold it on the mark to harden it and then lightly scrape off the worst of it with the back of a knife.

Next, try using a good quality carpet or rug stain remover – BUT test it on an inconspicuous area first for color fastness, you don’t want to make things worse than they are.

Lightly spray the stain with the cleaner, let it soak in briefly and then dab the stained area with a clean damp cloth.

Where the upholstery is already a bit soiled you may need to clean the rest of the fabric to avoid the cleaned up stain from standing out, let it dry out first to see how it looks.

Spill more choccy brownies and get a cat to lick it off. Then spray lightly with eau de cologne to negate the cat saliva.
