LosAngelesRugCleaning Ten Commandments of Carpet Cleaning and Maintenance

April 16, 2010 - PRLog -- Los Angeles, California, USA – Los Angeles Rug Cleaning – the premier carpet rug cleaning and carpet repair experts want to introduce rug and carpet owners to the proper ten commandments of rug cleaning and maintenance so that rugs and carpets can last longer and give their owners more pleasure.

Remember that Persian and Oriental rugs are expensive and can last for many years without carpet repair in a home and maybe for generations if taken care of, and so the better they look.

Here are some simple and general ideas for rug cleaning, protection and maintenance.

1. Depending on the foot traffic, rotate all rugs and turn it around maybe once a year for even and balanced wear. This makes carpet rug cleaning easier.
2. Do not let rugs be exposed to direct sunlight. The colors will fade through time.
3. Vacuum rugs regularly. Do not wait until it gets dirty. Dust and soil will damage the fiber of rugs resulting in a shorter life and spending more for carpet repair.
4. When something is spilled on the rug, act quick before it sets in and dries. Scoop the spill as much and then use dry cloth or paper towels to blot and absorb as much.
5. Apply warm water with laundry detergent to the stain and then blot again until the stain is removed and it is not visible anymore. Use a hair dryer or a vacuum cleaner to dry the washed area. Do not over use heat. It will damage the rug and more rug repair will be needed.
6. If the stain is solid, use a spoon to remove it and follow step #4 above.
7. Below, is a list for stain removal:

> Chewing gum or wax – Freeze using ice, shatter, vacuum, warm water and detergent.
> All alcoholic drinks – Talcum powder then warm water and detergent.
> Makeup, urine, blood, vomit, butter and asphalt – Dry cleaning solvent then warm water and detergent.
