Greetings! With the holidays approaching, and many of you calling to have carpets cleaned for those holiday gatherings, I thought that now would be a good time for some cleaning news that you could use. Today I would like to answer some questions about carpet protectors. It's always a pleasure to see how bright and clean your carpets look right after they've been professionally cleaned. You can keep them looking fresh and new longer by asking for carpet protector. In general, carpet protector forms an invisible shield around each fiber, which resists soil and stains. A quality carpet protector repels most liquids, allowing spills to be removed before staining and wicking can occur. Dirt and stains cling to untreated carpet and quickly become embedded in the fibers. Carpet protector keeps dirt from sticking to the fibers, making carpets easier to care for. Our company uses DuPont Teflon® Advanced for this service. We believe it is the best product on the market. It is applied by spray application, dries quickly, and leaves no odor. It is non-toxic and safe to use around family and pets. It's CFC- and solvent-free. DuPont recommends the application of Teflon® Advanced after each cleaning on all carpet fiber types. However, we prefer to consult with each customer before recommending this product. Even wool carpets can benefit from carpet protector. With an application of DuPont Teflon® Advanced carpet protector, you have the assurance your carpet is protected with a premium quality product. The following are the benefits of having a carpet protector application performed: • Forms an Invisible shield around each fiber • Repels liquid spills • The best soil protection for all types of carpets • Helps carpets last longer • Protects your carpet investment • Helps make carpets easier to care for • Safe around family and pets Carpet protector is just one of the ways to keep your carpet looking and feeling good.
