Carpet Stain Removal

Tools needed:

1. Steam Iron

2. WHITE hand towel

3. Stain Remover ( Always perform a test in a non-conspicuous area to insure color wear & fastness)

Steps

1. Apply stain remover- do not over apply, just get the damaged fibers moist with the chemical

2. Fold hand towel in half and place over stain (you are doubling the thickness of the towel)

3. Fill Steam Iron with water, set to MAX steam and turn dial to Wool Setting

4. Place iron on top of towel and stain. The steam raises the stain into the towel. BEWARE- if you see the towel start to show burns on the top level, keep an eye on the carpet very closely.

If the stain does not at least lighten in the first 5 minutes, wait for a Pro.

If the stain comes out in the first 5 min -GOOD JOB! If it only lightens, repeat the process until you arrive at success.

New Year Cleaning

Check the expiration date on your yeast, baking soda, and baking powder.

Test your yeast:

But one cup of warm water, 1 tsp of sugar and 1 Tbs of yeast in a bowl together and let sit for 10 minutes. Make sure it has begun to expand and bubble.

Test your baking soda:

Mix a tsp of vinegar and a tsp of baking soda together. It should bubble like a 2nd grade volcano science experiment. If it doesn't, it is time to get some new baking soda

Test your baking powder:

Put a tsp of baking powder in a cup of hot water. It should bubble and spat (it is releasing carbon dioxide). If it doesn't, it won't help your baked goods rise and you need some new baking powder.
