4. When using a mild detergent, use a clear non-bleach laundry detergent. Do not use cloudy detergents as they can leave a sticky residue. Use only 1/4 teaspoon of detergent to 32 ounces of water. Follow detergent cleaning with clear water rinsing (until all detergent residue is removed) and then blot dry as much as possible. Cleaning Recommendations 1. Even with regular vacuuming, soil particles and oily dirt will cling to the carpet fibers. With foot traffic these particles and oily dirt are driven deep into the carpet. We recommend professional hot water extraction every 12 to 18 months. Periodic cleaning, using the hot water extraction method performed by a certified carpet care professional, will refresh carpet appearance. 2. The most used areas, such as entrances, doorways, traffic lanes, and in front of chairs will collect dirt faster than other areas. Clean these areas as they begin to show soil. This will stop dirt from spreading and will extend the time between professional cleaning. Thank You For Choosing PORTICO by MOHAWK Carpet! 130 | Edition July 2019
