Hey Everyone
I was out cleaning carpet at a customers house the other day. There was a white chair sitting in the Master bedroom and we must have cleaned to close to the chair because the skirt of the chair browned where the wet carpet was touching. It must have wicked up the fabric. Initially we didn't know but got a call about a week later. Me and one of my techs went out and tried to remove the browning. We applied chemspec browning treatment, let dwell for a few minutes, extracted with an upholstery tool and speed dried with an air mover. It lightened up but wasn't completely gone. We asked the customer if we could take it back to our shop to work on it and she agreed. We decided to try citric acid and it continues to lighten after every attempt. Is there any better method to get results right away? I feel like I'm doing something wrong. Let me know what you guys think.
