Oriental Rug Cleaning Tips

An Oriental Rug can be a purchase for a lifetime and for generations if cared for properly.  Depending on foot traffic your rug will need periodic washing by a rug cleaning professional.

Rotate your rug periodically for even wear. Vacuum on a regular basis. Be careful of fringe and the height of the beater bar. Consider not using the beater bar. Use a quality under-layer, pad or cushion to allow for cleaning and prevent slippage.

Blotting Stains

When stains occur, dilute with water. Do not soak the area. Work quickly, do not allow stains to set. Blot from the edge of the spill towards the center using a clean white paper towel or cloth. Avoid as much as possible rubbing the area or pushing the stain further into the pile. For semi-solid or solid spills use a spoon to scoop up as much as possible. Allow to air dry or dry with a fan or hair dryer. Avoid excess heat if a hair dryer is used. Once the area is dry brush pile lightly with a brush to restore texture.
