Removing Carpet Dents

I would like to find out how to remove deep furniture dents from carpets.

Thank you.

Put an ice cube in the dent and leave it till it melts. It will soften the dent and then run over with a brush.

Take a washcloth or towel and use an iron on the steam setting. While it's still warm and moist, rake it with a comb or brush. Do this several times. The fibers are crimped/folded down and need to be "lifted".

RE: Removing Carpet Dents

There are special 'carpet rakes' to help with that but a heavy duty plastic bristle hairbrush will work too and costs a lot less money. You'll need to gently rough up the dented portion of the carpet, vacuum and repeat rough up and vacuuming (maybe a few times) and eventually the worst of the dent will come up. I've used this technique before and it worked well for me. Hope it works for you.
