Bombay Sprout is well known for creating beautiful and durable rugs. However, no matter
how careful you are, rugs are susceptible to stains from accidental spills.

Preventative Treatment

Be proactive!

AquaDefence is an environmentally-friendly stain treatment specially designed for use on textiles

Unlike other stain protectants, it penetrates the fibre to its core.

Spills

If you spill any liquid on a rug, clean it immediately. Once the stain has set in, it becomes far
more difficult to clean.

Never rub a spill as it forces the spill deeper into the rug and can cause irreversible damage to the fibres. The first step is to blot with a clean white cloth or kitchen towel.

On wool rugs, use lukewarm water or a wool cleaning liquid to remove any residual stains and blot with a clean, white cotton cloth. Always ensure fresh water is used and always work from the outside of the stain towards the centre.

Ensure the rug has dried thoroughly after cleaning.

Do not attempt to use any form of bleaching product (e.g. Vanish) as this weakens the fibres and can cause irreversible staining and damage.

If in doubt, ask a professional for advice!

Problem Stains

For more persistent stains, specialist cleaners have the know-how and can often remove more
stubborn stains that were impossible to remove with normal procedures.

Professional Cleaning

We recommend using a professional rug cleaner on an annual basis. Wool rugs are prone to bleeding and staining thus requiring extra prompt and careful cleaning.
