How to clean a water stain from upholstery

Water stains could be tough to remove, but I am sure that this method will help you to get rid of it in no time. First thing first, dampen the stained area with a clean damp cloth. Place three paper towels on top of the damp area and use books to hold them down. Set the blow dryer on the cool setting  and  point it over the paper towels so that the moisture will transfer onto the paper towels.
After you will need a pressing iron. Turn the steam setting on and point the iron at the stained upholstery and give it a blast of steam. Allow the upholstery to air dry and repeat if necessary.
If the stain is still there, then call Magic Cleaning, schedule your appointment today!

How to Remove Oil Stains From Upholstery

Sprinkle a thick coat of baking powder onto the stain, and let it sit for 20 minutes. Baking soda should absorb most of the oil. Then either vacuum the area or gather it with a paper towel. Next use a small brush or u could use a tooth brush. Pour some dish soap on it and scrub into the stain. Repeat till the stain is no longer there. Use a clean wet cloth and blot the stained area to remove any remaining dish soap.

How to extend carpet's life

 These professional carpet cleaning tips will help you maintain the quality and appearance of your carpet and hopefully preventing unnecessary staining and wear.

    1. Vacuum on a regular basis to prevent everyday dirt from setting into your carpet.
    2. Consider using area rugs in high traffic areas. That will protect your carpet from unnecessary staining and wear.
    3. If you have dogs who spend a lot of time outside, keep doggie towels near the doors you let them in and out by. Use them to wipe their paws to prevent tacked in dirt and stains.
    4. Use spot cleaning solutions between cleanings to treat any spills or spots you encounter.
    5. Have your carpets professionally cleaned every six to nine months, depending on how heavily they are soiled.
    6. Apply protectant to your carpet to help prevent stains from forming.
    7. If you do spill, blot, blot, blot! Get up as much of the liquid in the carpet as possible to prevent it from sinking into the carpet pad.
    8. Don’t pour water on to stains in order to “lighten them.” Although this can loosen the stain, it will subsequently sink deeper into the carpet and the pad, making it worse in the long run.

We hope this tips will help you to extend your carpets life :)

How to Clean Pet Urine Stains on Carpet


Your dog’s urine is a combination of ammonia, bacteria, hormones, nitrogen and uric acid. It’s the uric acid that creates a lingering smell even after you’ve cleaned up after your dog. It can be especially potent when the air is humid.
Since the canine sense of smell is hundreds of times more powerful than ours, it’s important to remove all traces of urine odor. If you don’t, your dog is very likely return to the same spot to do it all over again – especially if he’s not thoroughly housebroken or is left too long between trips outdoors to eliminate.
Take the following steps to thoroughly clean urine stains and odor from carpets and rugs:
  1. Using paper towels or other absorbent material like a rag or cloth, blot up as much of the urine as possible.
  2. Pour plain water over the spot and soak up the moisture again using clean paper towels – continue blotting until you don’t see any more yellow on the towels.
  3. Mix a solution of fifty percent white vinegar and fifty percent water. You must use a liberal amount of this solution to reach the carpet fibers deep down. Work the solution into the carpet with a soft brush or your fingers to ensure it penetrates the carpet fibers below.  
  4. Then blot the area using the paper towel method above to absorb the vinegar mixture. The vinegar will neutralize the ammonia in the dog urine. If you own a wet/dry vacuum extractor use it to remove excess moisture.
  5. When the area has dried or almost dried sprinkle a good handful of baking soda over the soiled area.
    Mix half a cup of 3% hydrogen peroxide with a teaspoon of Dish Soap detergent.
  6. Slowly pour the 3% hydrogen peroxide and dishwashing detergent mixture over the baking soda. You can also use a spray bottle for the hydrogen peroxide/dish washing detergent solution.                                                                                                                   Caution: Do not use Hydrogen Peroxide that is higher than 3% strength (10 Vol) 
  7. Allow the area to dry completely. Once the area is thoroughly dry, vacuum up the baking soda. A fan or heater can assist drying. Use a hard bristled brush to loosen up the baking soda if necessary.
