Without Ruining It

Professional secrets for perfect results

You spilled wine. Or your child dropped juice. Or your pet had an accident. You need to clean it NOW. But one wrong move destroys your expensive carpet permanently.

The Golden Rule

Blot, don't rub. Rubbing drives stains deeper and damages fibers permanently. This single mistake ruins more carpets than anything else.

3. Blot again
4. Mix 1 tbsp white vinegar + 1 tbsp dish soap + 2 cups warm water
5. Apply with cloth, blot dry
6. Repeat until gone

Pet Urine (Time-Sensitive)

1. Blot up as much as possible
2. Apply enzymatic cleaner (MUST be enzymatic)
3. Let sit 10-15 minutes
4. Blot, don't rinse
5. Air dry completely
6. Repeat if odor returns

Coffee/Tea Stains

1. Blot excess liquid
2. Mix 1 tbsp white vinegar + 1 tbsp dish soap + 2 cups water
3. Apply to stain
4. Blot with clean cloth

Deep Cleaning Method

Baking Soda Deep Clean

Best for: Overall freshening, odor removal

What NOT to Do
