How do i clean a sheep skin rug?

I have a small sheep skin rug that my son lies on and my lovely cat decided to wee on it.





What is the best way to clean it? Hot or cold water? Wool wash? Do i need to take it to a dry cleaner.





Thanks for any answers.|||1. Fill your tub with cold water, and add a small amount of baby shampoo (a cap full or so).


2. Place your sheepskin in the tub fleece side down.


3. Hand wash gently and rinse.


4. Remove the sheepskin and gently comb in one direction.


5. Lay flat, fleece side down. Or, hang it, but out of the sun.


6. When completely dry use the comb to fluff back to normal.








Tips





* Never use hot water or put in the dryer!


* Gently use a steel type pet brush.


* Do not use laundry soap, Woolite or bleach - the gentler the better.|||Concerning pet urine, I have found a good product called %26quot;Incredible%26quot; which will take the stain and odor of urine out of carpet. It is about $5.00 for a good sized bottle and since you only use a little, it will last a long time. If you can not find this product a good alternative is diluted white vinegar. Use about 1/4 cup of vinegar to a quart of water. You may have to blot the area several times with this mixture to get rid of the odor and stain.











Vinegar





Vinegar should lift the odor and it should be able to lift the stain. Could also try a raw potato for other stains ... A friend told me to take a raw potato - cut in half and rub into the stain








Nature%26#039;s Miracle makes a granular product that works unbelievably well for this purpose. Don%26#039;t use flour or powder, as you will have a mess. I%26#039;ve heard diatomaceous earth works well for this, but have not tried it.) Next, a 50:50 mixture of good old vinegar and water, doused on and blotted, blotted, blotted up. Also, depending on the size of the rug, a simple run under the faucet or hose with plenty of water usually works quite well. If the stain is not fresh, there are several options. Laundry detergent designed for baby diapers (Dreft) is good to wash out urine if the rug is washable; if not, apply an enzymatic cleaner as mentioned below, Finally, a last resort for us (due to the cost) is Simple Solution Carpet Shampoo (Not liquid or concentrate Simple Solution).


Good Luck !|||Dry cleaners have the safest methods for washing materials, so that would be your best bet if you are unsure of the washing instructions.|||or
