Simple Spot Removal Tips With a Wet/Dry Vac
Saturday, September 25th, 2010Use the wet/dry vac for, in regards to stain and spot removal, for extraction. Before you attempt any kind of clean up you should grab the wet/dry vac and extract as much of the liquid or soil as possible. What this basically does is remove what isn’t necessarily the stain yet.
For example, you’ve spilled a cup of juice on the carpet. Now technically the spot isn’t a stain yet. It’s still a puddle, more or less. The wet/dry vac will extract most of the liquid up from the spot, leaving you with what is now the actual stain. Now when you go to add your treatment chemicals you are actually treating the spot rather than adding your chemical to the puddle of juice.
After you’ve treated your spot you always want to rinse and extract. This removes any solvents that may get left behind. To do this you just pour some water, maybe a cup ( or less) , over the treated area. Then use your wet/dry vac to extract.
