Stain care

The last thing you want to do when your favorite rug gets a stain it to make the stain worse.   The first thing we do is look online for a home remedy. Most of these are misleading and leave out very important details. There are small simple steps to maintain the integrity of your rug.

Firstly, it is important to know what “cleaners” will do to your rug. If you use soap it will cause the carpet to bleed. If you next try vinegar to manage the bleeding it will make that and the stain permanent. Just using vinegar on its own will cause the stain to stick. Other natural remedies will cause discolouration and further stains.

Commercial cleaning solutions are a bad idea as well. Most don’t take into account the rug fiber types. Many as too powerful and can discolour your rug permanently. It is also difficult to keep then in one section of your rug. The cleaning solution will spread to other sections. So what should you do?

The first step is to contain the stain by blotting out the area with a dry paper towel or white towel. Once you’ve blotted out what you can, you have to let the rug dry properly. This way the stain won’t discolour any other sections when it’s rolled up. From there the rug needs to be rolled up and taken to a rug cleaning facility. Mention to a professional experienced rug cleaning service about the stain. They will ask you about the nature of the satin so they can properly get it out.

Professional rug cleaning will preserve you rug and make sure to get out the stain. This way you won’t have to deal with any damages and repairs. Your rug will be cleaned and look good as new.
