Plastic razor blades are such a handy little tool, but where can I use them? Well, there is no one correct answer - there are so many different ways a plastic razor blade can be used, on a plethora of different surfaces. There are even different types of blades depending on what surface you're working on - wood, metal, glass - the possibilities are endless! We reached out to some experts on "scraping" for a great example of where to use a plastic razor blade.

Removing Pesky Gum from your Carpets?

If your cleaning company is responsible for carpet spotting or overall carpet cleaning, you are eventually going to run across gum that is smashed into the carpet fibers. You may be cleaning up just a piece or two or if you are cleaning the carpet in a school or bowling alley, you may be removing gum every few feet. So is there a fast, easy way to remove these rubbery pieces of goo? Begin by using a Scraperite blade and gently, but firmly scrape up as much of the gum as possible. This may remove the bulk of the gum, but don't forget you still need to remove any sticky residue that remains. For any pieces remaining, use a product such as Unbelievable Goo D-solv-r Pro (from Core Products). Spray the chemical on a white blotting cloth and then blot the gum - do not spray it directly on the gum or the carpet. Once you have removed the gum rinse thoroughly with hot water. This will remove any of the chemical that is left on the carpet and help to prevent it from re-soiling. Some people have found that after using the scraper they can use a volatile dry solvent and hot water in their extraction machine to remove any remaining pieces of gum. The heat helps to soften the gum and remov...
