Napping the pile.....
« on: April 22, 2011, 11:15:51 am »
Ever come accross an oily mark, small pen tip like stain, certain types of make up etc. on a carpet fibre that nothing will shift it? If left there it could spoil the whole job.....

Sometimes we can get nearly all of it out but a stubborn little tiny bit remains that won't budge (often when we're cleaning white or off white carpets)......then we get out our secret weapon......

Napping shears.

Simply cut away the effective fibre (carefully and not all of it) to get rid of that awkward bit. Hey, presto the problem is gone.

They cost about £17 I think but a tool worth having.   :)
