How do i get a plastic friction burn out of my carpet
1 of the wheels on my sofa was damaged causing a plastic friction mark when
l moved it, almost as though little pieces of plastic came off and got
matted to the carpet. Have tried a stiff brush, carpet cleaner and hot
iron on damp teatowl and still nothing :(
You can not ''clean'' it. Carpets are synthetic. Synthetic
fibers melt when heated. So your description is very accurate you burned
(melted) the carpet. The only way to get rid of the discoloration is to
take a single sided razor or box cutter and pliers or something to stretch
the fibers, then very carefully cut the least amount of carpet fiber away
that is melted.
Cut out a piece of carpet from somewhere inconspicuous like
behind a cabinet (one that no-one will ever notice) and replace the
damaged part.
Melted plastic is melted plastic, and nothing is going to get
that out of your carpet. The only things I can suggest would be to
carefully cut off any large pieces of melted plastic and live with what is
left, or relplace either that spot or the entire room is carpet.
good old white vinegar
