How to Remove Grease, Fats and Oils

It is really painful task to clean all the grease, fats and oils. Hand cream, salad dressing, bacon – it all has the habit of spreading itself about. Here are some useful cleaning tips, which will help you to remove these stains.

From carpet: Use a kitchen towel and place it over the spill. Apply a cool iron to the other side to draw oils up into the paper and the last thing - shampoo the carpet.

From fabric: Use a pre-wash stain treatment or liquid detergent into the fabric. Then wash it in a hot water and if the stain is persistent – repeat the procedure again.

From upholstery: Use talcum powder and cover the stain with it. Let the area dry then vacuum off. If the stains are persistent, dab with methylated spirits or a proprietary stain remover.

It is very important to check manufacturer’s instructions first before starting the cleaning process. Always try a test patch first and if you are not sure as to whether the item is suitable or not for this type of cleaning, take professional cleaning advice or call Everest Clean.
