Do It Yourself Carpet Cleaning
To prevent a stain setting in to the carpet/rug area, spills should be
cleaned immediately. You can do it yourself carpet
cleaning by following these below quick carpet spot
cleaning instructions:
*Do not rub a spill as rubbing will force the spill go deeper
into the carpet fibers. Use a white clean paper towel or
absorbent cloth to blot spills.
*Remove as much moisture from the spill as possible by blotting
with a clean, white, absorbent cloth or paper towel.
*Use a blunt knife or a spoon to remove any solids. Always do
the cleaning from the edge of the stain inward, and whenever
possible scrape in the direction of the pile.
*Use clean lukewarm water added with a small amount of mild
dishwashing liquid or carpet shampoo to remove any residual
stain.
*If residual stain can not be removed with water, effective way
to remove spills by using solvent. Applying a few drops of
solvent on a small area of the rug should always be done to
pretest the solvent effectiveness, then using a white clean
paper towel or absorbent cloth to blot the spills.
*Use a spoon handle to apply the solvent directly on the stain
and work from the edges of the spot to the center. Use a white
clean paper towel or absorbent cloth to blot spills thoroughly
until as much moisture as possible is absorbed. Remember do not
over-wetting the stain, the process is only need to be repeated
until the spot no longer transfers to the cleaning cloth.
*To remove any residual cleaner use clean water, and use white
paper towels to absorb any remaining moisture. To restore the
carpet fiber texture, use vacuum
cleaner when dry to vacuum the pile.
