Sauces Removal
Important - Always read and follow the care
instructions and any warnings provided by the carpet manufacturer. Rugs and
carpets with natural fibers and/or certain dyes may require special
treatment. If in doubt contact a cleaning professional for advice/service.
Also follow these General Rules for stain treatment.
-
Remove as much of the foreign material as possible by
blotting with a white paper towel or scraping with a dull
knife.
-
Apply isopropyl rubbing alcohol to a clean white cloth,
white paper towel or cotton ball. If the spot extends deep
into the pile use a blotting motion until the spot is
removed or no color is transferred to the cloth. Do not
allow the alcohol to penetrate into the backing as this will
destroy the latex bond. If the spot is on the surface only,
rub in one direction at a time. Never us a circular motion
to remove spot as this may destroy the texture. Stop if spot
is removed. If not, go to the next step.
-
Apply a small quantity of detergent solution to the spot.
(To make the detergent solution mix 1/4 teaspoon of a hand
dish washing detergent which does not contain lanolin or
bleach with 1 quart of water; examples of safe detergents
are Dawn® and Joy®.) Use a blotting motion to work the
detergent into the affected area. If spot is being removed
continue applying detergent and blotting with a white paper
towel until spot is removed.
-
Rinse with tap water using a spray bottle, blot to remove
excess moisture.
-
Spray lightly with water, do not blot this time; apply pad
of paper towels and brick and allow to dry.
-
If
there is still some stain on the carpet and blotting is not
removing it, then moisten the tufts in the stained area with
3% hydrogen peroxide. Let stand for on (1) hour. Blot and
repeat until carpet is stain free. Light will cause peroxide
to change back to water so no rinsing is necessary. Apply
pad of paper towels and weight down with brick.
*Disclaimer - Quality Maintenance, Inc. does not
guarantee that the "tips" will get stains out. Discoloration may
result from application.
