How Do You Deep Clean a Mattress? What Tools Do I Need?

I am naturally sweaty and only use Fan (no AC) so I sweat through the night and the smell sticks to the mattress (and the pillows).

Is there a way to clean this mattress before I invest in a mattress cover?

    You want to get a good mattress pad. You can wash that in a washing machine and keep your mattress clean.

    To reduce smell in your mattress, kill the bacteria. Spray with 1 part vodka 2 parts water. Let it fully dry before putting sheets back on.

    Stains, those aren’t going away. That’s why you wanted a mattress pad.

      Oxy clean is pretty decent at getting rid of stains.
