GRIME BUSTERS: Half the success of removing stains from furniture lies in knowing the right chemicals to use, says John Gartner, a professional upholstery cleaner.

“Is that what I consider it is?” I ask my spouse even though zeroing in on a yellow, rainbow-shaped stain on the side of the white armchair.

“Luke!” We holler in unison at our 60-pound rescue mutt who immediately flattens his ears and tail, avoids eye make contact with, and slinks out of the room.

“Are you screening our motivation?” I call soon after him. He’s undoubtedly testing my patience. We know he, and not our lesser doggy, did it by the substantial waterline. Also, Luke’s passive aggressive that way. I experienced been absent on a company vacation, and this was his way of letting permit me know how he felt about that.
