Stain Removal Tips

<Continued from Part One>

The Carpet and Rug Institute suggests that you get your carpet professionally cleaned and re-protected every 12 to 18 months.  Clean regularly, and you can double the life of your carpet. Steam Geeks Home Cleaning Services is happy to offer you the following additional suggestions that will allow your carpet to look its best between cleanings:

For spots and stains:

• Don't buy or use spotting or cleaning products from a store. They can actually do more harm than good by setting stains, removing color or making your carpet vulnerable to getting dirty faster! (This advice also applies to large areas or whole rooms.)
• Mix a solution of 10-33% white vinegar, the rest clear clean water. Apply a small amount, blot repeatedly with a dry "white" cotton cloth (Diapers or terry cloth towels work well). After spotting, place a box fan or small oscillating fan on the spot to dry. This mix will get out many, but not all, spots and stains. However, it will not damage the carpet or make it so that a professional cleaner can't get it out either.

PLEASE, DON'T ALLOW A STAIN TO SET AND RUIN YOUR CARPET.
