Hi


This type of stain is one of the hardest to get out the carpet.


I would recommend using a wet vac and slowly pour hot almost boiling water (from a kettle) on the spot and vacuum it up at the same time, (this will open up the dye ports on the carpet fibre releasing the stain. and remove the residue from the carpet).


If the stain is still visible than try putting Dawn dishwashing liquid (4 or 5 drops into one cup of water) or carpet spotter. Dampen the spot letting it soak on the stain for about 5 minutes and repeat step one. After this you should rinse the area again with the wet vac and hot water. If this doesn鈥檛 work try using orange glo or even 409. The most important thing to do is rinse the stain with a wet vac and hot water from a kettle to remove all the reside, or the spot may come back.





Only as a last resort if you have rubbing alcohol Blot the chemical onto the spot and then remove with a towel and repeat, keep on doing this until stain is gone or you stop getting colour transfer. Then rinse the stain with a wet vac and hot water to remove all the reside,





Please be careful with what product you uses (neutral PH carpet cleaning solution is best). Please DO NOT put anything on the carpet that was not made for carpet.

You can still use a cold cream that is made to remove make-up. Rub it on, let it sit a few minutes then rinse away with cool water. Repeat for any excess that is still there. My sister stomped hers into my floor just to be rude. I got the last laugh though when it all came out.
I've found that make up remover works best to get make up stains out of clothing and upholstery.
put lipstick on the entire carpet... it'll hide the stain...

  2. I agree with your point that we should be careful in choosing products for carpet cleaning. Before you clean a carpet, you must define first the fabric, so you'll be able to know how to properly clean it. If ever you're not sure about the correct way to clean, better ask an expert like I did last week. My sister advised me to find a carpet cleaner in Grand Rapids. Carpet cleaning services there are truly known and has a good reputation, and you can easily find a trustworthy cleaner. In one day, the cleaner did the best job for our carpet. Grand Rapids Michigan carpet cleaners are truly great.
