Wet carpet cleaning
Carpet cleaning by specialized companies such as SCS Group Cleaning Solution is usually done with specialized dry machinery, but in specific cases, a more specific cleaning is necessary because of the type of fabric/material, the type of stains…
To carry out a wet cleaning of carpets, specific cleaning products are necessary according to the type of carpet and dirt or stain and carry out two previous tasks by checking and preparing the piece (these types of details will tell you if the company acts professionally or not):
- Before applying any type of product, we carry a deep vacuum out on both sides of the piece, to remove all kinds of particles of dust, sand, etc., there is a risk of producing mud. with the application of liquid products for these surfaces, leaving the area under treatment matted.
- It is also very important to carry out a test with the product in a small area that is not very visible (a corner or under the piece). This practice is especially useful on long-pile rugs and carpets because if the product deteriorates the color since we apply it to very few fibers, we will always camouflage them with the rest.
To clean carpets wet, you can use products such as soapy ammonia in water (very suitable for cleaning both wool and felt carpets) for short-pile acrylic or polyester carpets (very good product to clean vomit and feces of animals).
To remove stains from fruit juices, coffee, tea, milk, chocolate, wine, sauces, eggs, or blood, industrial solutions are used or a solution of neutral detergent and white vinegar to clean in warm water (depending on how it is the stain), which is applied with a damp sponge and then dried and cleaned with a cloth.
Alcohol mixed with water removes sugar and glue residue. To remove oil, ink, bitumen, and tar stains, we use specific solvents for cleaning carpets and dry rugs. In stains of paint, nail polish, or ink, after applying the solvent for dry cleaning, moisten the dirty area with a solution of warm water, neutral detergent, and cleaning vinegar, and finally apply this same solvent again. Thus ensuring better results.
If the stains are mud or recent dirt, allow them to dry, and once dry, brush the area well with brushes and/or rotary machines, depending on the type of fabric. Later we will apply a solution of three parts of water for one ammonia or a specific solvent.
