Accidents do happen and most can be resolved, sometimes without needing to call us. Check these [http;//www.chemdryrapidresponse.co.uk Emergency Stain Removal Tips].
If something gets spilled on to your carpet, prompt action is required to prevent permanent staining.
Be Prepared
As well as the Professional Spotting Products you can purchase from us there are some common things you can have ready to hand in case of spills and stains:
Clean white absorbent cloth or towel
Dry [www.chemdryrapidresponse.co.uk Cleaning] Solution – Surgical Spirit (usually available from local Chemists)
Detergent Solution – One teaspoonful of gentle detergent for washing woollens, to half a pint (0.3 litres) of warm water
Detergent Vinegar Solution – Add one teaspoonful of white (not malt) vinegar to the Detergent Solution
Ammonia Solution – One teaspoonful of branded household Ammonia (available from hardware stores) to one cup of warm water
General Tips
Do not over wet the carpet or upholstery into the backing materials
Always test each product on an inconspicuous area of carpet or fabric prior to treating a stain
Use products at the recommended dilution ratios
Scrape up or blot up any excess prior to treatment
Blot, never scrub or rub the area
Do not use inappropriate detergents on carpets or upholstery i.e. (washing up liquid, wash powders, household bleach or disinfectants)
Always work from the outside of the stain inward to avoid spreading
Always apply solvents to the absorbent towel, not directly onto the carpet or fabric
Encourage quick drying (carefully use a hairdryer on mild heat)
Keep the fabric or carpet as dry as possible.
Alcohol, Tea, Coffee, Liquid Foods or Urine Stain Removal
Blot up surplus spillage
If you have our Professional Strength Spot Remover use as per instructions on the can.
If not use Detergent Vinegar Solution, a little at a time
Work from the outer edge of the stain inwards
Frequently blot with dry cloths

Chocolate, Sweets, Blood, Glue, Egg, Ice Cream, Milk, Soft Drinks, Vomit Stains

Final Rinse Procedure
This is not necessary if you’ve used our retail products, ie the Professional Spot Remover or Grease and Oil Remover aerosol as per the instructions. If you have used the DIY remedies then please follow these carefully
Mix one-part white vinegar and four-parts water
Pour mixture into a spray bottle and spray over the stained area
Blot dampened area (do not rub) to remove excess moisture
Spread white kitchen towel (stacked 6-8 sheets deep) or absorbent cloth over the affected area and place a weight, such as a telephone directory, on top
Leave overnight and repeat if necessary
Whilst the stain removal guide may be basic, it should help prevent some quite common and expensive DIY stain removal damage. Unfortunately, there can never be a guarantee of complete removal of a stain, but the correct routine will give us the best possible chance of success if you call us in.
REMEMBER: Act Quickly. Scrape up solids, blot up liquids. Take plenty of time, it is worth the effort. Mix the solution accurately and test it on an out of the way piece of carpet. Always work from the outer edge of the stain to the centre. Dab or blot rather than scrub or rub. And, most importantly, NEVER OVER-WET.
NOTE: We are aware that some new carpets have been subjected to anti-static and soil-resistant treatments. Even when these have been applied, it is wise to follow the stain removal procedures.
