Yeah that is the new suede like surface. I used some Dawn dishwashing liquid the first time and now that it has dried the stains aren't too bad but are still noticeable compared to the rest of the couch. I am going to call the store we got the furniture from and ask them, because I think I was told that I could use Noxzema or something like that to clean with since it had a stain guard made into the fabric.

Thanks for the reply wyndhy............
