It’s not what first comes to mind. A couple of days ago, my Technician was cleaning a carpet in a large home. He comes across a couple of ink spots on the stairs, part of the pen still has ink coming out of it. So he goes to the van to his trusty spot removal kit, and low and behold nothing there to remove ink. As a small reminder, my Technician has 28 years experience in the Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning Industry. He is also a Fiber and Fabric Specialist. He talks to the owner and ask if they have rubbing alcohol. (remember he in right in the middle of cleaning these stairs) The owner says no. So he ask for vodka (1st choice because it’s clear) no vodka. Then he ask for tequila, yes we have tequila. So he takes the tequila and proceeds to place a small amount on the ink stains. Immediately after rinsing, the spots are completely gone. Not a single trace of ink. So if your in a pinch, and spill some ink on the carpets, this method may help. But first call your Hometown Professional Carpet Care Specialist so he can walk you through the process of pouring “Tequila on your Carpets.”
Be sure to ask your Professional Carpet Care Specialist for “Carpet Shield” carpet and fabric protector.
