How To Remove Chocolate From Your Carpet

First blot the stain with a dry paper towel to absorb as much of the liquid as possible, especially if the stain is oil-based.

Carpet fibres tend to soak up oil-based products quickly so it’s essential to deal with these spills immediately.

Be careful not to rub the stain, as this can cause it to spread further. Instead, gently blot the stain to remove any excess chocolate and prevent it from further penetrating the carpet fibres.

Pro Tip: Work from the outside of the stain towards the centre to avoid spreading it.

Apply the 1001 Carpet Stain Remover on the stained area and wait for a maximum of 5 minutes. Be careful not to overwet this area.

Our stain remover is essentially what gets any chocolate stain out of the carpet. Whether it is stains from chocolate ice cream or regular chocolate on bars, the 1001 Carpet Stain Remover can fight them all.

Apply a small amount of the stain remover to a clean cloth or sponge and gently dab it onto the chocolate stain.

Avoid saturating the carpet with too much of the stain remover, as this can lead to excessive wetting and potential damage to the carpet backing.

Warning: If the chocolate stain has already dried or been set into the carpet fibres, you may need to let the stain remover sit for a few minutes to break down the stain effectively.

With a dry cloth massage the Carpet Stain Remover formula into the stained area.

Work in circular motions, starting from the outside and gradually moving towards the centre of the stain. This will help the stain remover penetrate the carpet fibres and break down the chocolate residue.

Note: Be careful not to scrub too vigorously, as this can damage the carpet.

Once you’ve massaged the stain remover into the carpet, use a clean, absorbent cloth or paper towel to blot away any excess liquid.

It’s important to apply gentle pressure while blotting to avoid pushing the stain further into the carpet fibres.

Continue blotting until no more liquid transfers from the carpet to the cloth, ensuring that you are effectively lifting the chocolate stain from the carpet fibres.

This step is crucial in preventing the stain from returning or causing further damage, as any leftover residue can attract dirt and lead to discolouration over time.

After removing the excess liquid and treating the chocolate stain, allow the treated area to dry completely.

It’s essential to ensure that the carpet is fully dry before proceeding to the next step to prevent any potential mould or mildew growth.

Once the area is dry, vacuum the carpet using a vacuum cleaner with a clean filter.

This will help lift any remaining residue from the carpet fibres and restore its texture, leaving it looking clean and fresh.
