Stain Removal Procedures:

REMINDER: With any stain, scrape or blot up excess spill prior to procedure. Always follow up with water to remove detergent residue that

may become sticky and cause rapid resoiling.

PROCEDURE A

Apply solvent to dry towel/cloth. Blot, don’t rub. Repeat application

if necessary. Follow with Procedure B.

PROCEDURE B

Apply detergent solution (see “Cleaning Solutions”) using a damp

towel. Blot, don’t rub. Use a fresh, damp cloth towel to remove all

detergent residue. Blot; ﬁnish with pad of paper towels weighted

with a heavy object such as a jug of water or glass baking dish. If

any stain remains, repeat.

PROCEDURE D

Apply detergent solution (see “Cleaning Solutions”) using a damp

towel. Blot, don’t rub. Use a fresh, damp cloth towel to remove all

detergent residue. If spot remains, apply ammonia/ water solution

(see “Cleaning Solutions”) using a damp towel. Blot, don’t rub.

Apply white vinegar (undiluted), only after stain is removed. Apply

water rinse with a damp towel. Blot; ﬁnish with weighted pad of

towels.

PROCEDURE G

Freeze with ice cubes. Shatter with blunt object such as a butter

knife or back of spoon. Remove chips before they melt. If color

remains, follow with solvent (Procedure A).

PROCEDURE L

Apply solvent remover (non-oily acetone type) to a white, cotton

towel and apply to spill. Do not saturate carpet. Pick up softened

material using a clean, white paper towel, push toward center

of the spot (to avoid spreading material). Repeat above to soften

and carefully remove a layer of the material each time. Haste

may spread the stain and/or damage the carpet. Follow with

Procedure B. If spot remains, apply ammonia solution using a

damp cloth. Blot, don’t rub. Apply white vinegar (undiluted), only

after stain is removed. Apply water rinse with a damp towel. Blot;

ﬁnish with weighted pad of towels.

PROCEDURE M

Apply detergent solution (see “Cleaning Solutions”) to white towel,

leave 3-5 minutes. Blot, don’t rub. If stain is removed, ﬁnish with a

water rinse, then blot, then apply a pad of weighted paper towels.

If stain is not removed, continue as follows: Apply ammonia solution

using a damp cloth. Blot, don’t rug. Apply hydrogen peroxide

solution (see “Cleaning Solutions”), let stand 2-3 hours under a

weighted sheet of plastic wrap. Repeat application of hydrogen

peroxide and allow to dry until removal is complete. Apply white

vinegar only after stain is removed. Apply water with damp towel.

Blot and dry with weighted pad of paper towels.

PROCEDURE O

Cover with white cotton towel or brown paper. Lightly apply warm

iron to towel or paper until material is absorbed. Be sure towel

is large enough to cover the stained area. Never touch the iron

directly onto the carpet, as the ﬁber may melt. Change towel or

rotate same towel to a clean area and repeat until all material is

absorbed.

PROCEDURE P

Vacuum as much as possible. Loosen remaining material by

tapping with a scrub brush or toothbrush. Tap with brush, do not

scrub. Vacuum again. If stain remains, use detergent solution in

Procedure B.
