Tutorial

Here's how to remove common stains from your carpets:
● Red Wine: Neutralize with white wine or use salt to soak up the spill. Then, use club soda.
● Nail Polish: Blot up as much as possible. Test nail polish remover before using. If carpet does not bleach from remover, apply one drop at a time to nail polish stain and blot immediately. Follow with Spot Shot Carpet Stain remover.
● Mud: Cover with salt and baking soda. Let dry. Vacuum thoroughly. Follow with a carpet spotter.
● Coffee and Tea: Blot spill. Soak with cold water or club soda and blot until dry. Saturate with hydrogen peroxide for 10 minutes to lighten stain.
● Indentations: Remove furniture indents by wetting and fluffing with a fork.
● Wax: Put ice on wax. Chip frozen wax away. Next, cover with a paper bag and iron bag on low heat to absorb the wax without scorching the carpet.
● Gum: Follow directions for wax, above. Do not use iron. Instead, apply a very small amount of Vaseline and scrape off.
● Glue: Saturate with white vinegar. Use fork to work it up and out of the carpet fibers.
● Ink: Spray with hairspray and blot carefully.
