How to Get Coffee Stains Out of Carpet
Spilled coffee? Here's what to do right away, what to avoid, and when to call a professional carpet cleaner in Wichita.
Act fast and blot, don't rub
Grab a clean white towel and blot from the outside of the spill toward the center. Rubbing pushes coffee deeper into the fibers and spreads the stain.
Rinse with cool water
Dampen the spot with cool water and keep blotting. Hot water can set coffee stains, especially if there's milk or creamer in the cup.
Test any cleaning product on a hidden spot first, and avoid soaking the carpet.
When to call a professional
If the stain is old, keeps coming back after it dries, or covers a large area, professional hot water extraction can pull out what's left deep in the carpet. Ultra Clean KS pre-treats visible stains as part of every residential cleaning.
