Prepare Your Stairs for Cleaning

• Before getting into the cleaning process, follow these crucial steps:
• Clear any clutter or objects from the stairs to ensure easy access.
• Thoroughly vacuum the stairs, paying extra attention to corners and edges where dirt tends to accumulate.
• For heavily soiled areas or stubborn stains, consider using a pre-treatment spot cleaner.

Using a Carpet Cleaner (Option 1)

If you have a carpet cleaning machine, follow these steps:

1. Fill the Carpet Cleaner: Prepare the carpet cleaner by filling it with the appropriate cleaning solution (such as 1001 Carpet Machine Solution).
2. Start at the Top: Begin at the top of the stairs and work your way down.
3. Spray and Scrub: Spray a small section of the stairs with the carpet cleaner. Use a scrubbing brush to work the solution into your carpet fibres.
4. Blot Up Excess: Blot up any excess cleaner and stains with a towel.
