Carpet manufacturer tips - how to repair carpet burning marks


If you accidentally drop combustibles such as candles and cigarette butts on the carpet, picking them up and extinguishing them in time will not set the carpet on fire. However, the burning temperature will leave traces of burns on the surface of the carpet, such as smoke holes, etc. Generally, these traces are relatively small and can be repaired by technical means, and the difficulty of repair is not high. How to Repair Small Burns on Carpets Here are a few easy ways to refer.


We'll look at two ways to deal with carpet burn marks.

For the first method, you need the following tools: sharp scissors, tweezers, glue, heavy objects (books or bricks).


Use scissors to cut the burnt fibers of the carpet. Then, carefully remove the charred and blackened remaining yarn with tweezers. After treatment, the carpet will have a deep or shallow pit. If the area is the size of a palm, it is recommended to cut a carpet of similar color and pattern from the spare carpet, and stick it to the burnt area with glue along the direction of the original carpet fibers. Finally, press it on the carpet with a heavy object, wait for the glue to dry, and then return to new. Although it looks like a bit of repair marks, it is a less worry and less labor-intensive operation than replacing the carpet.


The second method targets tiny burn marks. Repeat the first two steps of method one. When filling small holes, cut carpet fibers from the spare blanket and use tweezers to glue the holes. The last step is also heavy pressing, and after the glue dries, comb the carpet fibers with a comb to blend the borders. If there are no black marks on the burn, you can also use a razor to hang flat along the carpet and scrape the melted and damaged fibers.

For the flame retardant and fire resistance of carpets, the editor of Merike carpets recommends nylon carpets and wool carpets.
