Why You Should Use Scotchgard™ – Infographic

    Key takeways

    Fabric protection can slow liquid absorption and make dry soil easier to remove, but it does not make fibres stain-proof.

    • It is most useful on pale, high-use carpet and upholstery or in homes with children and pets.
    • Apply only to compatible, freshly cleaned fibres.
    • Protection wears fastest in traffic areas and needs periodic reapplication; spills still require prompt blotting and proper treatment.

    Adam’s Carpet Cleaning recommends the application of Scotchgard after each cleaning on all carpet fibre types.
