My lovely children have got (purple) plastercine type gloopy stuff on my brushed fabric (beige) suite covers.
Its not actually plastercine but the gloopy sort of stuff they buy from novelty shops to remodel and squeeze into shapes.
There is now a 3inch blob well and truly squashed into the fabric on my cushion (funny how the cushion was magically turned over..........as if I'd never notice??!!:rolleyes: )
Any suggestions on how to remove would be gratefully appreciated.

Hi Scorpiolady,
I don't know if they will help but there are some ideas on this thread:
Cleaning fabric dining chairs?

Hi OP, if the covers come off maybe try putting them in the freezer overnight, alot of those plasticy slimes get really brittle at low temperatures so you might be able to get it to flake off if it's cold. cel x:staradmin:starmod: beware of geeks bearing .gifs...:starmod::staradmin:starmod: Whoever said "nothing is impossible" obviously never tried to nail jelly to a tree :starmod:0

Thanks for the replies.
Yes the covers are removable so I will try the tip about the freezer, many thanks.
