Green Choice Carpet Cleaning begins by assessing the condition of the silk rug. We gather basic details such as the dimensions of the rug and the room in which the rug is based. We find out how old the rug is and how much foot traffic the rug gets on a regular basis. We check to see if there are any conditions in the rug that could cause an issue during the cleaning and check to make sure the dyes will not run during cleaning.
Before any cleaning we dust the rug to remove embedded dirt. With a silk rug we use compressed air to blow out the dust from the back of the rug.
The cleaning process with a silk rug is very delicate. Once silk becomes wet, it can start to weaken and can be easily stretched. Because of this, we clean the rug very quickly. We go over the rug with a brush and hand clean the rug to avoid any stretching of the fibers. Many rug cleaners will use a buffing machine because they do not know the proper way to handle a wet silk rug but the powerful buffing action can quickly stretch and ruin the rug beyond repair. That is why hand washing is the only way to clean silk rugs.
Once the rug is cleaned, we rinse and place the rug in a spin drying machine. The spin dryer will remove up to 95% of the water in a few minutes. This leaves the rug free of any dirty water and cleaning solution. Because the cleaning process is quick, the fiber does not get soaked and weaken.
