How to clean your oriental rug:

  • Clean the stain right away

  • Clean your Oriental rug once a month
    Even if you think that your rug is clean. Oriental rugs pick up dirt fast, so try to clean it at least once a month to make sure the dust not settle in the rug fibers.

  • Do not use soap or harsh chemicals on your rug
    Remember that your Oriental rug (like many oriental rugs) may be made with vegetable dyes and the colors can easily fade. Chemicals are big reason for rug colors to fade. At George Ayoub Carpet, we recommend to avoid using soap because there is no way to get rid of it 100%, especially if you don’t have the space to rinse it with a hose. Vinegar is an old way to clean Oriental rugs, using vinegar can make the colors.
