Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
Unroll the rug completely and lay it flat in your desired location. Allow 24-48 hours for the rug to settle and any creases from shipping to dissipate. For faster flattening, you can gently roll the rug in the opposite direction of the creases.
Compatibility:
This rug is compatible with most standard flooring types, including hardwood, laminate, tile, and low-pile carpet. It is recommended to use a rug pad (sold separately) underneath to enhance comfort, prevent slipping, and protect your floors, especially on hard surfaces.
Care:
- Regular Vacuuming: Vacuum weekly using a standard vacuum cleaner without a beater bar, or set the beater bar to its highest setting. This removes surface dirt and prevents grit from settling into the fibers.
- Spot Cleaning: For spills or stains, blot immediately with a clean, dry white cloth. Work from the outside of the stain inward. Avoid rubbing, which can spread the stain and damage the fibers. For tougher stains, use a mild detergent mixed with water, test in an inconspicuous area first, and blot with a damp cloth.
- Professional Cleaning: For a deep clean, professional rug cleaning is recommended periodically (e.g., every 1-2 years) to maintain its appearance and longevity.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading, especially for the metallic sheen. Rotate the rug periodically to ensure even wear and color.
