Cleaning soot out of carpet

We were tasked with cleaning a carpet that had some soot damage and some staining. In this case, the carpet had soot damaged due to a candle over burning and smoking up the entire bedroom for several hours at night. There were also some drink stains throughout the room, but we’ll focus on these soot stains found around a large dresser. First, we sprayed a spotter on the harsh lines. We followed that up with pre-spray over the general area. The soot came out quickly when the pressure of the steaming hot water from the wand hit the stains. The stains came out easily because they were being sucked right out of the carpet immediately. We finished the cleaning by spraying the carpet with Scotch Guard to protect the carpet from any future stains. Our customer was satisfied, and we told them to call us back should there be any other issues.
