Pilling is a common characteristic that many fabrics share. It is the result of excess fiber coming off the surface of the fabric, resulting in small balls or "pills" forming on the surface. This effect is similar to the pilling that occurs on new carpet or on a new sweater. To remedy pilling on your upholstery, simply shave the surface with a battery operated furniture or sweater shaver. After shaving your fabric several times, the excess fiber will be gone, the pilling will stop, and the original look of the cover will be restored.
