spot cleaned
Addressed stain specifically
Spot cleaned describes something that has been cleaned only in specific areas rather than entirely.
The term typically applies to carpets, upholstery, or clothing where individual stains were treated without washing or cleaning the whole item: The couch was spot cleaned after the party.
It implies targeted maintenance rather than thorough cleaning.
