Use and Care Manual

Cleaning Fresh Spills
Fruit Juice
First, grab a clean white cloth and blot up as much of the spill as possible. Mix 1 tablespoon of detergent
with 2 cups of warm water. Using a sponge or a new cloth, apply the solution directly to the soiled area.
Rinse with cold water. Repeat the process until the stain is gone.
Red Wine
Using a clean white cloth, blot up as much of the liquid as possible. Mix equal parts detergent and white
vinegar with two parts warm water. Dip a second cloth into the mixture and dab it onto the stained
area, then rinse with cold water. Repeat until the stain is gone.
Ketchup/Gravy
Use a dull butter knife or spoon to carefully scrape away as much of the condiment as possible. Sprinkle
baking soda on the spot and let it sit for 15 – 30 minutes, then vacuum it up. Follow by blotting the area
with a mixture of ¼ cup of detergent and 1 cup of warm water. Rinse with cold water.
Glue
If the glue has dried, press a warm, damp towel to the spot to loosen it. Then, soak a clean cloth with
rubbing alcohol and lay it over the spot for at least 15 minutes before blotting it clean.
Pen Ink
Soak a corner of a clean cloth with rubbing alcohol and blot the area. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes.
Follow with a vinegar and warm water rinse.
Note: Always perform a spot test before applying any mixture to the entire soiled area. For any other
spills not listed here, or for stubborn stains, we recommend reaching out to a reputable rug or carpet
cleaner.
