Does your sofa look untidy and the marks from alcoholic beverages seem irreparable? Don't worry, there's an easy way to restore it to its original appearance. With this method, you can remove even those stains that seemed impossible to clean.

Many housewives and experts say that vodka can be an effective tool for removing old stains from various surfaces, including furniture upholstery. It is only important to remember one important aspect when using this method, Glavred reports .

Vodka is not just an ingredient for creating drinks. It can turn into a powerful cleaning agent when mixed with water. This combination effectively removes dirt from a variety of surfaces.

This method is especially useful for freshening upholstered furniture, such as sofas, especially if you have pets. After all, they can sometimes leave unpleasant odors. Ordinary vodka will help you get rid of these troubles.

Usually, after such a sofa cleaning, it dries and fully restores freshness within an hour, and sometimes even faster.

For cleaning, you can use not only vodka but also distilled alcohol, which is ideal for disinfecting various surfaces, from the bathroom to kitchen utensils and even shoes.

However, it is important to remember to use such solutions carefully. Effective germ killing requires at least 70% alcohol in the mixture. A high concentration of alcohol can lead to rapid evaporation from surfaces before the germs are neutralized. Therefore, this method may be inconvenient for large surfaces such as furniture.

It is best to use a solution of vodka and water, which can be sprayed on the stains to clean them and eliminate unpleasant odors.
