Limitations of Protector Treatment  for Carpets and Upholstery:

 

  1. Limited protection: No stain protection treatment can guarantee 100% protection against all types of spills and stains. Some spills and stains may still penetrate carpet or textile fibers, even with a protector treatment in place.

  2. Need for professional application: Most stain guard treatments require professional application, which can be more expensive than do-it-yourself treatments. We always advise to use professional service. Don't turn your DIY to DI'WHY.

  3. Limited protection against wear: While a protector treatment can help to protect the carpet from spills and stains, it may not offer much protection against wear and tear from foot traffic and heavy usage.

HOW PROTECTOR FOR CARPETS AND UPHOLSTERY WORK

  • Carpet & Upholstery Stain Protection works by applying a protective barrier to the fibers of the carpet that helps to repel spills and stains. The protector treatment typically consists of a solution that is applied to the carpet using a sprayer. This solution forms a microscopic layer on the carpet fibers that act as a barrier against liquids and other substances that can cause staining. 

 

  • Once the protector solution has been applied to the carpet or upholstery, it bonds to the fibers and dries to form a transparent and durable protective layer. This layer helps to prevent spills and stains from penetrating the fibers and causing permanent damage. Additionally, the protector makes it easier to clean up spills and stains, as the liquids bead up on the carpet's surface instead of being absorbed into the fibers.

 

  • The protector we use is known to be long-lasting, safe, and withstand even the heaviest usage.
