To fix a chemical stain on a carpet, mix ¼ teaspoon of liquid dish soap with 1 cup of warm water. Use a clean cloth to apply the cleaning solution, working from the outside toward the center. Let it sit for five minutes. Blot with a dry cloth until the stain is gone. Repeat the process if necessary.
For tougher discolorations, consider using a mixture of vinegar and water. Apply this solution to the stain, let it sit for a few minutes, and then blot again. If the stain persists, store-bought carpet stain removers specifically designed for chemical stains can be effective. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions and test in an inconspicuous area first.
After treating the stain, allow the carpet to dry completely. If needed, vacuum to restore the carpet’s texture. With these steps, you can remove tough discoloration effectively.
