How I Clean My Carpeted Stairs without a Machine This carpet sweeper is comfortable to use and compact. It worked impressively on larger debris like dog kibble on both carpeting and hard floors. However, small debris such as bread crumbs took a few tries to sweep up, especially on wood floors. Still, we like how it removed dog hair from area rugs.

It is advisable to test the carpet for colour fastness prior to use. To do this, mix a little of the foam shampoo liquid to the specified dilution, apply to a clean cloth and then clean a small area of carpet, ideally one which is normally hidden from view. Move slowly forward with it, holding down the trigger. As you do so, the cleaning solution is released into the pile and the rotating brush bar agitates the fibres, providing deep down cleaning. Cleaning your area rug by hand takes a few everyday ingredients and a little hard work. To start, make this DIY cleaning solution that is inexpensive and free of toxic chemicals. Squeezing the trigger will release the valve in the head of the unit allowing the shampoo and water mixture to be applied to the foam roller. Using short overlapping strokes the mixture will be applied to the carpet or rug – DO NOT OVERWET the cleaning area. Releasing the trigger will stop the flow of shampoo/water mixture, although the roller will remain wet for a time afterwards. After use let the carpet or rug dry completely, then vacuum or use your carpet sweeper to remove the deposits lifted by the foam shampoo.Before using the Vax Platinum Power Max Carpet Cleaner, there are several things you can do to prepare for a proper carpet clean. Lay the rug outside to dry in the sun. Once the top part of the rug is dry, flip it over to allow the bottom of the rug to dry. Once the rug has dried completely, use a vacuum cleaner to vacuum the rug to loosen up the carpet fibers of the rug, as they have probably become compacted during the cleaning process. You’ll need to make or buy a carpet cleaner. To make a homemade carpet cleaning solution, combine the hot water and vinegar in a large spray bottle. Add the lavender oil and salt to the container. Replace the cap and shake well. To remove dirt and debris from your stairs, use a stiff brush and scrub the stairs, starting from the top stair and working your way down. Brushing the stairs will help to get rid of any stubborn dirt that a vacuum cleaner can’t remove. Next, you’ll want to clean the loosened dirt with a vacuum. Again, start on the top step and work your way down. Start by vacuuming the rug on both sides to remove any loose dirt. Next, you’ll need to test the colorfastness of the rug, by performing a spot test on the corner of the rug. If the cleaning solution doesn’t discolor the area, you can proceed with cleaning it by hand.
