If you know some details when using improvised means, then carpet cleaning at home will be very effective and of high quality:
- According to the principle of salt, sawdust, tea leaves, bran, starch, semolina, etc. can be used.
- Sawdust works well not only wet (gasoline with detergent), but also dry.
- The ground pumice should be the size of coarse salt.
- Semolina and bran cannot be moistened; they are used only in a dry state.
- The brew leaves yellow stains.
- Fruit stains will be removed with a 1: 1 mixture of laundry soap and apple cider vinegar diluted in 1 liter of water. The product is applied to the dirt, rubbed in gently, and then removed with clean water.
- Coffee stains can be removed with dishwashing liquid. Fresh stains should be slightly moistened, add a couple of drops of gel, rub and rinse with water. Hydrogen peroxide and even beer copes well with this task.
- Long-standing coffee traces will help remove glycerin. It is applied to the stain and left overnight, and in the morning it is washed off with a cleaning solution.
- Greasy stains are qualitatively removed with a mixture of salt and alcohol (1: 4). The product is rubbed several times in the direction of the pile. Not so quickly, but it is possible to remove traces of fat with chalk, talcum powder, tooth powder or starch. Pour the powder onto the stain and let stand for a little over an hour, then vacuum the coating.
- We use the cold method to remove wax, paraffin, chewing gum, plasticine. We apply the ice in the bag to the problem area in order to bring it to a solid state, and then remove it with a knife or scraper. Sometimes a completely opposite method is adopted – a cloth or napkin is applied to a drop of a substance, along which it is carried out with a hot iron. The disposal item must remain on the tissue.
- Blood stains are removed only with cold water. Soak it, if it’s dry, soak it, take shaving cream and rub it into the stain. You can take a soda solution, hydrogen peroxide, or ammonia. After a certain period of time, we wash everything off with a sponge.
- Stains on dark carpets can be easily removed with table salt or lemon juice.
- The salt works on red wine stains too. The place of cleaning must be quickly filled with wine, but only white, and moistened with cold water. The next step is salt in an unlimited but reasonable amount. We fill the stain with it, leave it and after 15 minutes we vacuum it.
- To remove stains from a ballpoint pen and felt-tip pens, alcohol or a solution of glycerin and liquid soap is taken.
