SOME SPECIAL PROBLEMS
Mud
Let
dry. Then crumble and remove excess. Spot clean as a water
soluble stain.
Animal
Urine
Blot
up as much as possible. Next dilute the stain by cleaning
with a cloth dampened by plain water. Then clean with an
acid mixture such as one quart of water with one teaspoon
white vinegar, or you can use club soda.
Nail
Polish or Rubber Cement
Wipe
up as much as possible. Then, use regular nail polish
remover, without lanolin, applying it with an eye dropper.
Wait a few seconds, and then blot with cloth. Repeat until
all material is removed.
Cigarette
Burns
If
a burn area is small and damage is only at top of pile,
snip off charred ends with manicure scissors, then
spot-clean with cleaning agent for water soluble stains.
Note:
If
these procedures donot remove the stain, call a
professional carpet cleaner.
USING
PROPER CLEANING AGENT, FOLLOW THIS
TECHNIQUE:
1.
Before
attempting test for color fastness in an inconspicuous
area.
2. If
liquid, blot up as much as you can with a clean cloth,
pressing firmly all around the spill to absorb as much of
the liquid as possible. If material is solid, scrape up
what you can with a spoon or dull edge of a knife.
3.
Dampen
cloth with the proper cleaning agent for the type of stain.
4.
Wipe
area gently, working from the outer edge to the center of
the spot. Turn the cloth frequently so it is always clean,
and do not get the caret excessively wet.
5.
Repeat
process until the spot is removed.
6.
Dry
the carpet by weighing down half-inch pad of absorbent
tissues or cloth to absorb the moisture; or, circulate air
with a fan.
7.
After
the carpet is dry, brush the pile up.
