Furniture dents in carpets
 

Hi,
I have just moved some furniture around and there are dents in the carpet
where the furniture used to stand.

Can anyone give any advice on how to remove these dents?

Thanks

I've never tried this but I've heard you can put ice cubes in/on the dent
and let them melt and the dents disappear.

A helpful D&K book we have with lots of hints + tips for these sorts of
things suggests putting an ice cube into the hole and letting it melt... not
tried it myself.

Let an ice cube melt on the dent (or soak the patch with cold water) and as
the carpet dries it will spring back up again. I didn't believe this one
until I tried it myself on a new carpet. We have a really heavy bed and it
made very deep dents in the carpet. The water trick sorted it out!!

I give then a good rub with the narrow nossle (crevice tool)
on the vacuum cleaner, such as to suck the pile back upright.

Patience. They will go away in time.

Not in my experience.

Saw one of those 'Trade Secrets' short programmes on TV the other day,
and one woman recommended putting an icecube on the dent, leave it
until it melts away. Worth a try.

There's an echo in here!

Sorry Mungo,

My service provider seems to miss out a random selection of replies
so I am
never sure that I've seen all the replies or that I'm not duplicating a
response. Perhaps
I should get a bette service provider ( I'm with Onetel ),
