2.11 No.10 – Carpet Spot Cleaners

Note:
For typical spills on the carpet:

• Make sure the chemical is diluted to the correct ratio with water
• Absorb any excess liquid before cleaning
• Vacuum all dry soil before cleaning
• Apply small amounts of the spotter and blot the stained area.
• Do not over-wet the carpet as this may leave ring marks
• Do not rub or brush the pile as this may result in unsightly fuzzing or other distortion
• Work from the outer edge toward the centre of the stain
• Allow the spotter plenty of time to react with the staining material
• “Feather” around the area by dabbing the edges more lightly than the centre
• After the spotter chemical has released the stain it must be removed from the carpet by absorbing it into a cloth or absorbent paper. Then the area should be rinsed with clean water.
