MAKE UR CARPET LOOK NEW !!


10 Commandments of Carpet CARE : Vacuum Frequently and Thoroughly.

1. Stains can be removed by one cleaning agent if they are CLEANED in the first few days. The longer a stain chemically reacts with the carpet the harder it will be to remove it.
2. Oily soils attract more oily soil and frequent vacuuming will reduce soil build up so vacuum frequently and thoroughly. Most of the WEAR of carpeting is caused by dirt.
3. All carpets are different. Some carpet dyes are sensitive to harsh alkalis. Other carpets are very sensitive to acid type cleaners and will lose their COLOR color quickly.
4. Don’t use harsh spotting agents unless absolutely necessary and always neutralize high alkaline or high acid cleaners after use.
5. The proper procedure is to scrape the spot towards the middle and then tamp the spot into the white towel or CLOTH using a brush or other tamping DEVICES.
6. Too much detergent will result in residual left in the carpet that even thorough vacuuming may not remove so do not overuse detergents, shampoos or spotters.
7. Our carpet detergents are chemically active enough so they do not need a tremendous amount of wetting so do not over wet carpet. Over-wetting can cause brownout and carpet shrinkage.
8. Periodic extraction will flush out this dirt and other organisms deep in the carpet. Extract residual if possible. Rotary scrubbing will clean the carpet fibers the best by encapsulating dirt and detergent residue, which powders off the carpet.
9. After scrubbing or extracting a dirty carpet, if you are not satisfied you either re-scrub or extract the carpet or leave the carpet until the next cleaning cycle before you coat, do not apply a coat of carpet protector as this will result in "gluing in the dirt" making it harder to remove it the next time.
10. Vacuum frequently and thoroughly. It is so important it deserves two recommendations. Vacuum frequently and thoroughly. It is so important it deserves two RECOMMENDATIONS.
