DUBLIN — Spot cleaning your carpet isn’t difficult, but you need to use the proper procedure to yield a good result. This starts with choosing a good spot cleaning agent. Look for a product that has a neutral pH and isn’t overly soapy or heavily concentrated. Avenge Neutral Spotter and Folex® Instant Carpet Spot Remover are both good choices.
Once you have your cleaning product, you can begin the spot cleaning procedure. First, get a damp cloth. Next, apply your cleaner, either onto the cloth or directly onto the spot itself. Gently rub the cleaner into the carpet, feathering it in different directions as you go. “Gentle” is the key word here—you don’t want to over-scrub or use a heavy brush when you spot clean your carpet.
When the area seems pretty clean, switch to a dry cloth and use the same procedure, feathering it around. The goal with this step is to dry the area, which is important to ensure the treatment is effective. When you’ve done all you can with the cloth, target the spot with an oscillating fan to further hasten the drying. Once the area is completely dry, the spot should be gone.
