Tips for Cleaning Upholstery?

[jtoomasson at yahoo.com (Jeff Toomasson)]

Thanks, John!

Do I do this while they're mounted on the bolsters or while I have them free
(it would seem that doing it while the fabric is free would make the process
10x more difficult...). Any risk to the bolsters?

thanks again, JT
