Carpet spills and stain cleaning guide

Oh no. They say don’t cry over spilt milk (or wine, presumably), but that’s a little tricky when you’ve spilt it all over your carpet.

And whilst it may be the safest option to call a carpet cleaning professional, when it comes to stains on carpet, time is of the essence.

That’s why we’ve prepared a little cheat-sheet of our top five carpet stain removal tips for DIY stain treatment at home, so you can keep on top of those carpet spills and stains.

There to save the day, or at least until you can organise to have a Drytron professional carpet cleaner come around to properly tackle the problem. 

Good luck!

STEP 1

DO NOT SCRUB OR RUB as it can cause permanent pile distortion. First scoop up all solids before cleaning.

STEP 2

BLOT UP AS MUCH LIQUID as possible using a clean, white toweling cloth or white paper towel.

STEP 3

CLEAN. Refer to instructions on your Stain Buster or Wee Buster pack. Apply spot removal agent/s to a clean white towel. Do not apply directly to the carpet. Always work from the outside of the stain or spill towards the middle to avoid further spreading using a blotting or dabbing motion.

STEP 4

RINSE with cold or lukewarm water only.

WARNING: Do not saturate.

STEP 5

BLOT DRY with absorbent material such as white paper toweling.
