Carpet Cleaning Bradenton FL

 Unfortunately spots happen and usually this time of the year when all your friends and family come to visit. If your family is anything like the family on National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation, you’re going to get spots. Relax. Don’t Panic. The following procedures will help you with removing those unsightly spots from your carpet and upholstery.  If you need further assistance, Guaranteed Carpet & Tile Care’s highly trained and friendly staff can bail you out of almost any situation. Hope this helps you survive the holidays. There will be a home spotting guide coming soon to our website www.carpetcleaningsarasota.com . Please check back often.

1. Catch it while it’s fresh, when chances of removal are 75% better. Don’t iron or hot-air dry until the stain is gone. Heat will set most stains.  
2. First blot up all the liquid and scrape up all the solids you can. On a large liquid spill you can use a wet/dry vac. Be careful not to spread the stain.
3. Test any chemical you intend to use in a hidden area to make sure it won’t discolor or damage the surface.
4. Apply spotter and work from the outside of the stain in, to avoid spreading. Blot, don’t scrub; strike with the flat face of a spotting brush if needed to help break up the stain.
5. Rinse chemical spotters out with water, blot the area dry and feather the edges. Brush or fluff up pile or nap.

6. On carpet and upholstery, put a thick pad of toweling over the spot, weight it down with books, and leave it there overnight to “wick up” any remaining moisture.

Good Luck and Happy Holidays
