Spot Removal Procedures:
• Act quickly when anything is dropped or spilled.
Remove spots before they dry.
• Blot liquids with a clean, white absorbent cloth or
paper towel.
• For semi-solids, scoop up with a rounded spoon.
• For solids, break up and vacuum out as much as
possible.
• Pretest the spot removal agent in an inconspicuous area
to make certain it will not damage the carpet dyes.
• Apply a small amount of the cleaning solution
recommended for the particular spot. Do not
scrub. Work from the edges of the spot to the center.
Blot thoroughly. Repeat until spot is removed.
• Follow steps on the Carpet Spot Removal Guide.
• After each application, absorb as much as possible
before proceeding to the next step.
• Absorb remaining moisture with layers of white
paper towels, weighted down with a non-staining
glass or ceramic object.
• When completely dry, vacuum or brush the pile to
restore texture.
• If the spot is not completely removed, contact a
professional carpet cleaner.
Cleaning Solutions:
(A) Dry Cleaning Fluid: A nonflammable spot
removal liquid, available in grocery and
hardware stores.
(B) Nail Polish Remover: Any acetate, which often
has a banana fragrance. Do not use if it contains
acetone.
(C) Detergent Solution: Mix two cups of cold
water and 1/8 teaspoon mild liquid detergent
(no lanolin, non-bleach).
*While the recommended cleaning
agents may be effective, some stains
may become permanent.
