Spot Removal Procedures
• Act quickly when anything is dropped or spilled. Remove
spots before they dry.
• Blot liquids with a clean, white absorbent cloth or paper
towel.
• For semi-solids, scoop up with a rounded spoon.
• For solids, break up and vacuum out as much as possible.
• Pretest the spot removal agent in an inconspicuous area to
make certain it will not damage the carpet or its dyes.
• Apply a small amount of the cleaning solution recom-
mended for the particular spot. Do not scrub. Work from
the edges of the spot to the center. Blot thoroughly. Repeat
until spot is removed.
• Follow steps on the
Carpet Spot Removal Guide
.
• After each application, absorb as much as possible
before proceeding to the next step.
• Absorb remaining moisture with layers of white paper
towels, weighted down with a non-staining glass or
ceramic object.
• When completely dry, vacuum or brush the pile to
restore texture.
• If the spot is not completely removed, contact
a professional carpet cleaner.
