An Interesting Method to Remove Carpet Stains
Removing stains from you carpeting can be a tedious chore, but it must be done to preserve the life of your carpet. I have mentioned many different cleaning methods for the various stains you may encounter. Today I came across a video of a carpet cleaning process that is said to be able to be used on any types of stains and carpeting. But as the video’s disclaimer reads, you use this advice at your own risk. This is pretty much what all tip websites and videos sites have to say now for their protection. But let’s focus on the video.
The usual tools we see come out, white towels, dish soap, buckets, and water. The extra step added by the man in the video, is the use of a steam iron. Instead of just blotting up the stain, as most tips sites tell you, he applies a dish soap and hot water solution. After pouring a bit of that solution on the stain, he layers white rags soaked in hot water on top of the stain. Then he uses his iron on medium heat and low steam to work over the towels. Over time this will start to steam up the stain, which will rise and get collected in the wet rags. He repeats this process as necessary, until the stain is removed. When the stain is gone, he works to remove any soap residue and water by applying dry white towels. He also employs the use of a wet/dry vac.
I just gave a brief summary, check out the video here:
