One of the worst things that can happen to you in the morning is to spill your coffee onto the carpet or rug. Believe me when I say it your whole day goes upside down you're late for work because of the traffic in Harrow, that moron at work is pissing you off. All in all an awful day and you think only about the stain on the rug and how are you going to get it out. In this article I'll tell you easy ways to deal with different kind of stains and extend the lifespan of your area rug.
Take Measures As Soon As Possible (ASAP)
There are several recipes I know about, I haven't tried them all but the friends that gave them to me have and say they work great. I assume that at least you have soaked up the excess liquid before rushing to work. My personal advice if this ever happens again take care for the stain first, either way you'll be late for work. But if you don't deal with the spill there is a chance it becomes permanent. Whatever back to the problem, get clean cloth and soak up as much as you can.
For the first recipe you'll need white vinegar, warm water and liquid dish-washing detergent. In two cups of water mix one tablespoon of both ingredients. Apply on a sponge and onto the stain, gently blot and rinse. Be careful not to over wet the area, because drying can take a lot of time. Another recipe you can try is water and baking soda, mix both until you get thick paste solution and apply on the spot. Rub it into the stain and vacuum once it dries.
Have you ever thought you may use shaving cream for something else? I thought so, but you'll be surprised by all the purposes you can use shaving cream for. Apply a little onto the stain and gently rub with your fingers. Blot with clean cloth, let it dry and vacuum to remove any residue. A mixture of equal parts salt and soda is appropriate due to the absorbing qualities of both. Sprinkle the stain an let it sit for an hour or two, then vacuum. The mixture will absorb the colour as well as the moisture.
The next tip can seem a little unusual, but by best friend claims she had tested it and it works. Pour little beer directly onto the coffee stain and blot with clean dry cloth or paper towels. All of these recipes refer to rugs tolerant to liquid. The only one safe for moisture sensitive mats is the salt and soda solution, but it is best if you book cleaning specialists in Harrow. They'll make sure any trace of the stain is completely removed from the fabric.
