How To Get Coffee Stains Out Of Carpet - VICTORIA CARPET CARE

When it comes to spilled coffee, time is of the essence, the sooner you can treat these spills, the less likely that there will be a stain.
Step 1

• For large stains, work from the outside of stain to the center to prevent spreading.
• Blot up liquid spills with a white towel or paper towel.
• Mix a solution of 1/4 teaspoon of clear hand dishwashing detergent with 1 cup of water. Stir gently.
• Apply detergent solution directly to a white cloth. Dampen the carpet fibers in the stained area with the cloth. Avoid saturating the carpet.
• Wipe gently. Turn cloth frequently. Never rub, scrub or use a brush. This may damage carpet fibers.
• If necessary, use your fingertips to work the solution to the base of the stain.
• Wet the stained carpet fibers with clear, lukewarm water to rinse.
• Cover the spot with an absorbent white towel or paper towel and apply pressure to blot.
• Repeat the rinsing and blotting procedures until you are sure all traces of the detergent have been removed.
• If the stain is gone, place an absorbent white towel or paper towel over the area cleaned, and weigh towels down with a heavy, color-fast object, such as a weighted plastic wastebasket.
• Change towels or paper towels until carpet dries.
• If stain remains, proceed to Step 2.

Step 2

• Mix 1 cup of white vinegar with 2 cups of water.

Apply vinegar solution, rinse and blot as outlined in Step 1.

Re: Testimonial for Victoria Carpet Care
It has been years since my carpets were cleaned and being 12 years old it started looking like it was time to replace them. So I called Russ at Victoria Carpet Care to remove a carpet bump and clean the carpets.
Well Russ worked very hard stretching the carpet removing the carpet bump with his long extended stretcher and working up a sweat in the process. He then cleaned carpets quickly and very professional with no chemical order too! Now they look like new again and I don’t need to replace them. I can now enjoy brand new looking carpets thanks to Victoria Carpet Care.
I would highly recommend Russ and Victoria Carpet Care to anyone.

A Free 15 Minute Carpet Evaluation!
I will come to your house and audit your carpet for free. That's right there's no cost and no obligation of any kind. Here's exactly what I'll do:
1. First I'll cover all the problems your carpet has.
I'll check for 'unwanted' stains. I'll tell you whether or not they can be removed and how. This includes pet stains and other difficult stains.
2. I'll calculate the wear age of your carpet.
Your carpet may be 10 years old but only have a wear age of 2 years. However, your carpet may be 2 years old but have a wear age of 10 years. I'll explain how long it will be before you will need to get new carpet and I'll give you a 'prescription' to make your carpet last as long as possible.
3. I'll determine if your carpet is in good health.
Oh, you've never thought of your carpet as having good or bad health. Well, just like people, if a carpet is in bad health it will not live long. Healthy carpets are great for healthy wallets and for healthy people.
Yes, your carpet's health can affect you and your family's health. Just like you track in dirt from the outside, you also track in car exhaust, cigarette smoke, asphalt, chemicals, dust, germs, pollens, tar, soot and many others. These pollutants get lodged into your carpet just like dirt.

WHY PROTECT Your Carpets and Upholstery? Carpet Steam Cleaning, Victoria BC

Using Protectant on your carpet functions the same way as a coating on hard surface flooring.   It increases vacuuming effectiveness and gives you the time needed to clean up the spill before it sets into your carpet. 
What is ScotchGard or Teflon?
ScotchGard is a professionally applied deep-penetrating protective finish for fabric furniture, carpets, rugs, and other fabrics.  When applied correctly ScotchGard penetrates deep into the fiber to form a molecular “lock” inside the fiber. Our ScotchGard protective shield effectively resists soil & stains and makes cleaning MUCH more effective.
How long does the protection from these products last?
Under “normal” conditions and with reasonable care, Protectors  will provide long lasting benefits. Victoria Carpet Care research has shown that protectors are  very durable to foot traffic. However, performance will diminish somewhat over time with each hot water extraction cleaning. For optimal soil and stain protection, we recommend that they be reapplied after every hot water extraction.
Does protector “waterproof” carpet?
Protector is not intended to be used as a waterproofing agent for carpet. However, it will provide improved resistance to water-based substances.
Does protector contain formaldehyde?
No, there is no formaldehyde in any products that Victoria Carpet Care uses.
