How to remove stubborn stains from carpet: Tipps and Tricks

.

A carpet gives the room warmth and coziness. But it's also a place for stubborn stains that can be difficult to remove. In this article you will learn how to remove these stains from your carpet. We're going to share tips and tricks to help you keep your carpets clean and stain-free.

1. How to avoid stains in the carpet

Before we get into how to remove stains, it's important to know how to avoid them. Here are some tips:

  • Clean up spilled liquids as soon as possible. The longer a liquid stays in the carpet, the harder it becomes to remove.
  • Avoid eating or drinking indoors. This reduces the risk of staining.
  • Use a shoeshine to clean shoes before entering the house. This reduces the amount of dirt that gets onto the carpet.

2. The tools you need

Before you begin removing stains from your carpet, you'll need a few tools. Here are some things you will need:

  • Hagerty BlueH extraction teat
  • Hagerty SOS spray
  • A clean white cloth
  • Warm water
  • A bucket
  • A sponge or soft brush
  • A handheld vacuum

3. How to remove stains from carpet

Now that you know how to prevent carpet stains and what tools you need to remove them, it's time to learn how to actually remove them. Here is a step-by-step guide:

Step 1: Identify the stain

Before you start cleaning, it's important to know what type of stain you need to remove. The type of stain will determine what type of cleaning product you should use.

Step 2: Remove as much of the stain as possible

Use a clean white cloth to absorb as much of the stain as possible. Avoid rubbing the stain as this can cause it to go deeper into the carpet.

Step 3: Use the Hagerty SOS Spray

Spray the Hagerty SOS Spray generously on the stain and leave it on for 3-5 minutes.

Step 4: Use the Hagerty BlueH extraction teat

Fill the Hagerty BlueH Extraction Teat with warm water and follow the manufacturer's instructions to set it up. Vacuum the water out of the carpet until the stain is removed.

Step 5: Thoroughly clean the carpet

Once the stain is removed, give the carpet a thorough cleaning to ensure all residue is removed. Use warm water and a sponge or soft brush to clean the carpet. Avoid using too much water as this can cause the carpet to take too long to dry.

Step 6: Dry the carpet

Use a handheld vacuum to remove as much moisture from the carpet as possible. Then turn on a fan and let the rug dry thoroughly before using it again.

4. Other tips for cleaning carpets

Here are some other tips that can help you keep your carpet clean and in good condition:

  • Vacuum your carpet regularly to remove dirt and debris.
  • Do not use harsh cleaning products on your carpet as they can damage the carpet.
  • If you have pets, be sure to pick up stains of urine or feces as soon as possible, as these can be difficult to remove.
  • If you are unsure how to remove a specific stain, consult a professional carpet cleaner.
