Great question! Our fabrics are developed with an extra layer of protection during production to help with those everyday 'oops&apos; moments. While the water-resistant treatment gives you extra peace of mind, it doesn&#x2019;t make your sofa bulletproof! It&#x2019;s designed to resist water-based spills, but alcohol and oily stains still need extra care.</p><p data-start="440" data-end="656">Water-resistance means the fabric can resist water penetration to a degree, but not entirely.
