Methods for cleaning carpets

There are several types of cleaning.

• Dry cleaning - vacuuming or in specialized machines that are located in factories, dry cleaners. To clean the carpet with a manual vacuum cleaner:
  • Visually divide the coating into strips.
  • Treat particularly contaminated areas of the carpet several times.
  • Do the movements on the pile and against the pile, and improve the cleaning if you move crosswise.
  • If the process is accompanied by unpleasant odors, use the following recipe. In a small container, mix the crushed fragrant herbs, add 1 tsp.cloves, ground cinnamon and soda. Scatter on the carpet. Leave for 5 minutes and vacuum.
• Wet cleaning is carried out with the help of professional carpet cleaning agents. Carpets are usually cleaned with special shampoos, but they are not always effective, since the foam does not penetrate deeply into the fibers and actually does not remove stains.
• Carpet washing - usually this kind of cleaning is very specific, because not every material can be washed in a car and generally wetted. For example, Chinese carpets are impregnated with starch, which during washing is washed, viscose categorically does not accept this type of cleaning, and many carpets are based on glue which, when in contact with water, will deplete and the product will deform, and as a result will be unsuitable.
