How to get rid of the most persistent stains on the carpet: secrets of experienced hostesses

Even stubborn stains can be removed from the carpet with ordinary shaving foam

Of all the flooring types, carpet is the most difficult to clean. Its fleecy texture accumulates and does not "give off" dust well, and it also easily collects stains that can be problematic to clean. However, one simple cosmetic product can completely change the rules of the game.

This life hack is popular among cleaning enthusiasts on social media. As OBOZ.UA found out, this product is shaving foam.

Those who have already tried this life hack say that it helps to get rid of stubborn dirt on carpets and stains on upholstered furniture. It also refreshes the fabric and removes unpleasant odors from it. The main caveat is you need to take the foam, not the gel.

What makes it so effective? Firstly, the texture allows the product to penetrate deep into the fibers and push dirt out from under them. Secondly, the presence of surfactants and cleaners destroys grease and other pollutants.

To use the power of the foam, apply it evenly to the contaminated area and leave it on for 20 minutes. After that, gently, without friction, remove the remnants of the product with a cloth or paper towel and vacuum the treated surface thoroughly. If a wet mark remains, dry it with a regular hair dryer. If the stain has not completely disappeared, the procedure can be repeated as many times as necessary to completely remove it.

By the way, you can also use the same product to treat your shower mirrors to prevent them from fogging up. Apply a little foam to the glass, spread it evenly over the entire surface and polish it with a microfiber cloth. Water condensation will begin to settle on the mirrors less quickly after this treatment.
