Car Care - Carpet Stains

CARPET STAINS

Whenever possible, carpet spills should be treated immediately. When cleaning shortly after a spill, blot the area with an absorbent cloth and apply a carpet cleaning solution (or mild soapy water) to the area, allow to sit briefly, re blot and dry. For tough dried on stains, begin by soaking the area with a carpet cleaner. (Mild soapy water will work, as well.) Allow the cleaning solution to penetrate into the stain and then, blot the area dry. Tough stains may need a second or third application. Note: Not all stains can be removed due to differences in fibers, dyes, constructions, composition of the stain and the length of time the stain has been left unattended. This is why it's best to treat spills immediately. Color test a discreet area before applying any chemical cleaner to your carpeting
