Daily and Weekly Maintenance:

1. Gentle Vacuuming:

Frequency: Vacuum high-traffic areas twice weekly; other zones once a week.

Technique: Use a vacuum with adjustable suction and a brushless attachment; avoid beater bars on delicate piles. Vacuum in the direction of the nap to lift dust without abrading fibers.

Edge Care: Gently vacuum fringes and edges with a handheld nozzle to prevent fraying.

2. Rotation and Sun Protection:

Rotation: Turn your rug 180° every three months to equalize wear and fading.

Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can fade dyes and weaken fibers. Use UV-filter curtains or rotate the rug more frequently in sunlit areas.

Step-by-Step Spot Treatment:

1. Blot, don’t rub: Immediately absorb excess liquid with a clean cotton cloth—press gently, working outward from the stain edge.

2. Apply the correct James solution:

Water-based: Spray James Stainwonder directly onto the spot; let dwell 2?3 minutes.

Oil-based: Treat with James Stainspray, agitating lightly with the cotton cloth.

3. Rinse & Dry: Blot with a damp cloth to remove residue, then press a dry cloth until no moisture transfers.

4. Final touch: Use Interior Cleaner sparingly for overall refreshment, ensuring an even appearance across the rug.
