Common Rules for Spotting: Apply water before and after most spotting procedures except for inks. Spot clean inks on the solvent or "dry" side. Wash all spotting agents free from the carpets, as these can set up their own stains if left in the fabric, Remove noticeable spots from the carpet before shampooing, buffing with a bonnet or extracting. It is wise to test the spotting agents in an unremarkable area of the carpet before applying them on it.

Preventive Maintenance: Always clean outside the door (beside the carpet area). Frequent sweeping and cleaning around building entrances are required. Put entrance Mats and walk-off mats. Carpet protectors can offer real tangible benefits in a carpet cleaning program. Carpet protectors significantly reduce the amount of various types of soil accumulating on the carpet fibers.
