Accidents happen every day.  It is almost impossible to stop stains from happening all the time.  Our carpets come in contact with tough stains like drinks, blood, paint and pet urine.  Ace Chem-Dry is here to help keep your carpets looking fresh & clean. 

 

With our specialized carbonated cleaning solution in Fort Collins we have the best proven carpet spot removal service in the area.  With our years of experience we have also picked up a couple tips to help you remove harsh stains that you may encounter day to day.

 

#1 – Blood Stains

 

If you get a blood stain on your carpet you will want to act fast.  Immediately rinse the area using cold water.  Then use a combination of cold water with 2 tablespoons of ammonia in a spray bottle to dap the stain clean.

 

#2 – Ink Stains

 

If you have ink stains in your carpet start removing them by using a clean cloth soaked in isopropyl alcohol to dab it gently.  Don’t rub the area too hard.  Sometimes nail polish remover cab also work to remove ink stains.

 

#3 – Pet Stains

 

Don’t worry too much if your pet has an accident in the house.  Start the clean up by picking up any solid messes and then gently blotting away any moisture.  Next use a specialty stain remover with ammonia.  Another option is warm water, vinegar, and a sprinkle of baking soda.  In order to remove pet stains and odors entirely, it is important that you schedule a pet urine odor removal treatment at least once a year.

 

#4 – Wax, Gum, Or Oil

 

For a wax or gum stain you will want to put a piece of ice over it to freeze it.  Then start to chip away the stain using a knife.  Vacuum the remaining pieces after.  For an oil stain you will want to place a paper towel on top and then iron over it so that the stain will stick to the towel instead of your carpet.

 

#5 – Coffee

 

If you have a coffee spill try to soak up as much of the stain as possible first and then apply a cleaning solution.  Rinse the area with warm water and then vacuum it dry. If your carpet can’t 

be bleached you will want to schedule a professional carpet spot removal treatment.
