Usage
Safety first
Always test a hidden area for colour fastness and allow to dry completely before use. Allow the test area to dry completely (drying can take up to 12 hours). Observe for colour stability. If a colour difference can be seen, we advise against use of this product. Do not use on Velvet type fabrics, brocade, rayon or those unsuitable for wet cleaning.
Preparation
Liquid Spills - Blot stain with kitchen towel or clean dry cloth to soak up excess
Solid Residues - Scrape up excess with a blunt knife
Dry Stains - Vacuum the affected area
Here’s how to use Troubleshooter in a few easy steps…
- Blot liquid spills with kitchen roll - scrape up solid residues with a BLUNT knife.
- Apply 1001 Troubleshooter approx 16cm (6ins) away from stain, lightly covering area.
- Work from outside of stain to centre using damp cloth or soft brush in short straight strokes. Do not use circular motion. Do not overwet. Excessive rubbing could cause 'fuzzing' of carpet or 'pilling' of upholstery.
- Finally, blot excess moisture with kitchen roll and brush the carpet pile into original position. Use a straight edge, eg plastic ruler or blunt knife.
- Vacuum when completely dry.
