Different Stains Removing Tips From Carpet | Carpet Cleaning Long Beach

Red wine, coffee, food, oil, wax at some point or another they are likely to end up on your carpet. Knowing the way to clean and remove the stains can be a little tricky, but with a little direction and a few basic ingredients, even a white carpet can be saved without ruining its fibers.

According to This old House’s experts, each stain should be treated the same basic method: blot the stain working from the outside in, rinse thoroughly with clean water, then blot again and repeat until dry. “Never scrub the carpet, or you risk ruining the carpet fibers or letting the spill soak through to the carpet pad.” even if you don’t have any significant stains, rugs and carpets should be steam cleaned by yourself or a professional to get rid of any unseen allergens, dirt and mold. Carpet Cleaning Long Beach

Water-Soluble Stains Use a simple cleansing solution made up of 1/4 teaspoon of non-bleach detergent (or white vinegar) mixed with thirty two ounces of water.

Special water-soluble Stains (blood, chocolate, coffee, mustard, tea, vomit and wine): try one tablespoon of ammonia mixed with one cup of water (but not on wool or wool-blend carpet; instead use mild detergent and water). 

For Fat, Oil, and Wax Stains

Place a paper towel over the carpet and iron on warm setting. The wax, fat, or oil should come up off the carpet and stick to the paper towel.

Cigarette Burns

These can be removed by gently rubbing the pile with the edge of a hard and flat surface, such as a dull knife. Carpet Cleaning Long Beach

Glue Stain

Moisten a cotton ball or soft cloth with rubbing alcohol and press it on the affected area. Once the glue residue is thoroughly moistened, gently wipe it off and repeat till the carpet is clean.

Wax and Gum Stains

Use ice to freeze the wax or gum, then shatter it with a blunt object, such as a spoon. Vacuum before the pieces soften, and blot the carpet with a white towel.

For Nail Polish Stain

Blot the area with a rag dipped in nail polish remover.

Urine Stain

Absorb as much as possible with white towels, then blot with a damp, cool cloth. Next, spray or blot with a solution of one half white vinegar to one half water. Finally, apply a solution of 1/2 teaspoon of clear, mild, non-bleach detergent mixed with thirty two ounces of water, rinse, and blot dry. Carpet Cleaning Long Beach
