Spot Removal Tips
Food and beverage stains are part of everyday life and are sometimes unavoidable. Below are a few spot removal tips and suggestions to help in case the unavoidable happens. If you find that the stain doesn't remove easily, don't rub. Contact the professionals at Alex Carpet Cleaning.
- At the first sign of a stain, act quickly. The longer a stain sits, the more chance it has to set.
- Try to pick up the excess by blotting or scraping. Don't rub; this will cause the stain to be ground in and more difficult to remove from the fibers.
- Test a small portion of the carpet before using any type of carpet cleaning solution to ensure that it will not cause discolorations. Remember, a mild cleaning solution is better than a strong one, so be patient.
- Start cleaning from the outside of the stain, working your way inward; this helps keep the stain from spreading.
