how can I remove a cola stain from a silk Chinese carpet?
Silk Rugs Maintenance * Protect your silk carpet from heavy use and soiling. A silk carpet is a luxury and should be treated accordingly. * Lightly vacuum as needed. Avoid catching the fringe in the vacuum. * Inspect your carpet regularly for wear and damage. By turning the carpet frequently, regulate its use to evenly distribute wear. * If the carpet has sustained structural damage such as holes through the carpet, worn pile, or tattered fringes and edges contact an oriental rug repair specialist. * If your carpet becomes stained follow these instructions: 1. Work fast. 2. Blot up excess spill using paper towels or a clean cloth. Do not rub the affected area. 3. If the area is not stained, dry it with a fan or hair blower. Restore the pile’s direction with a clothes brush. 4. If the area has borne a stain, contact an oriental rug repair specialist. Sources: http://www.alrug.com/viewArticle.php?
