| Most carpet purchased today comes with a protective coating, such as Scotchgaurd or Dupont Teflon, applied to the carpet fiber surface. This protective coating acts as a sealant or a barrier between the actual carpet fiber and spots, spills, and soils that wind up on the carpet. The protective coating works in a similar fashion as a non-stick skillet. Scotchgaurd and Dupont Teflon allows spots, spills, pets stains, and traffic areas to come to a shiny clean. The color dye on most carpets has a rigid surface on the outside with tiny holes and cracks for the spots to penetrate. Protective coatings are slick on the outside which allows most carpet stains to slip right off the fiber surface. With a professional carpet cleaning, it all comes off. If properly maintained, the original color of the carpet can endure much longer and extend it's original showroom luster lifetime. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Protective coatings can also help when vacuuming. Static electricity tends to build in carpet. People got shocked all the time for years just from walking across the carpet in their socks and touching a metal object or even when touching someone else. It happened so much is was just considered a natural part of life. People don't seem to get shocked that much these days. That's because protective coatings on carpet tend to eliminate static electricity because they are made of non-conductive materials. Static electricity can act like a magnet on dust particles holding them deep down in the carpet pulling the dust down while the vacuum cleaner tries to pull the dust and dirt up. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
