Cleaning rugs with cellulosic fibers

[J Scott W]

I am preparing some training material on cleaning rugs made with cellulosic fibers - viscose, art silk, banana silk, sisal, coir, jute, bamboo (made into viscose) and such.

Would appreciate any photos, especially before and after photos and discussion of what methods you used.

Thanks.

That's OK. I don't care much for those designers, either.

Scott,
Even the designers are starting to realize the storm in their future caused by selling something they knew nothing about. I'll see if I can find the ASID forum where they were talking about distancing themselves from all rayon products. We don't see much jute or hemp anymore, so that wave has passed.


Although that wasn't the question. We don't typically take after pictures, but I'll see if I take a few that will show the difficulty of removing stains from rayon.
