  • Attend to liquid spills promptly.
  • Dilute with cold water and soak up excess
  • Repeat for as long as you are achieving a positive result.
  • DO NOT SCRUB! Blot or use a “tapping” action only if needed
  • Avoid bleach-based products
  • Leave carpets as dry as possible, do not soak the carpets, use all cleaning agents sparingly
  • Don’t over wet with solvents (eg turps and dry cleaning fluid), they can damage the carpet backing.
