A little photo tour of our washing. Often we clean a number of rugs at one time in this case 4 rugs. As we work through the various spots soils the lighter soiled rugs clean faster giving the dirtiest rugs the longest to soak. In this case a 1890-1910 Persian Kashan, with lots of old carpet shampoo build up. The shampoo residues overtime attract more soil making the rug look grey and muted hiding its real colors. In the last several pics the rug looks much better however we find another dusting (dry soil removal) and a second wash is important to get the rug clean to our standards #rugsofinstagram #cleaning #rugwashing #rugspdx #renaissanceyourug #rugcleaner #cleaningmotivation #centraleastsidepdx #pdxart #designresources #pdxsmallbusiness #portlandhome #interiors #woolrugs (at Renaissance Rug Cleaning Inc.) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8SGqTSnmo5/?igshid=fsqffi74td04
