Carpet Care Tips

General Spotting Rules: Identify stain and use appropriate spotter(s).  If stain can not be identified, use General Purpose Spotter.  If stain remains, use Paint, Oil, and Grease Spotter.  Follow with a thorough rinsing so no cleaner residue is left in carpet. For more information, please go to Spot Removal 101.

Difficult Spots and Stains:

  • Rust Removal: After applying Rust Remover to a carpet, always neutralize with Alkaline Conditioner.
  • Asphalt Tracking: Vacuum thoroughly before applying diluted Heavy Duty Prespray.  Agitate with a carpet rake, extractor, or brush and let sit for 10 minutes to loosen soils.  Extract according to directions.  Dry Carpets as quickly as possible.

Reoccurring Spots: This occurs because excessive soil or detergent from spotter remains in carpet.  Remove by recleaning with appropriate spotter, rinse until thoroughly clean, and blot dry.

Preventing reoccurring spots from wicking:

  • When spotting, be sure to blot until all of the liquid is removed.
  • Dry the carpet as quick as possible using carpet fans or some type of air mover. Note: Use Minimum Moisture MethodTM/MC carpet cleaner and maintainer for helping excessive wet spots.
  • Use a carpet rake.  Depending on the thickness of the pile of the carpet, using a carpet rake can decrease drying time by at least 30%.
  • Do not overwet the carpet.

Removing reoccurring spots from wicking: Apply Minimum Moisture MethodTM/MC carpet cleaner and maintainer directly to the spot.  Work into carpeted area with a soft brush and allow to dwell for 5-10 minutes.  Vacuum thoroughly.  Repeat process if necessary.
