WHY SCOTCHGARD IS IMPORTANT?

1. Stain Protection:

Scotchgard creates a protective barrier on surfaces, making them resistant to liquid spills and stains. Reapplying Scotchgard ensures that this protective layer is maintained, helping to prevent stains from penetrating and becoming permanent.

2. Extended Lifespan:

Regular use and exposure to everyday activities can wear down the protective coating provided by Scotchgard. Reapplying it helps extend the lifespan of furniture, carpets, and other surfaces by providing ongoing protection against stains, spills, and wear.

3. Ease of Cleaning:
Scotchgard makes surfaces easier to clean. When spills occur, the liquid tends to bead up on the surface, allowing for easier blotting or cleaning. This can be particularly beneficial for high-traffic areas or areas prone to spills.

4. Preservation of Appearance:
Reapplying Scotchgard helps preserve the original appearance of furniture, carpets, and upholstery. Over time, without protection, fabrics and surfaces may become stained, discolored, or show signs of wear.

5. Protection Against Moisture:

Scotchgard provides water repellency, which is essential for protecting surfaces against moisture. This is particularly important for furniture and carpets in homes where spills or accidents are common.

6. UV Protection (in some formulations):
Some Scotchgard formulations offer UV protection, helping to prevent fading and damage caused by exposure to sunlight. This is especially relevant for furniture and carpets placed in areas with a lot of natural light.

7. Maintaining Hygiene:
By repelling stains and spills, Scotchgard contributes to maintaining a cleaner and more hygienic environment. Stains can harbor bacteria and allergens, and preventing them helps in promoting a healthier living space.

8. Cost-Effective Maintenance:
While Scotchgard is an additional investment, it is generally more cost-effective than having to replace or extensively clean stained or damaged items. Regular reapplication of Scotchgard can be seen as a preventive measure that saves on potential future cleaning or replacement costs.

Note: It's important to follow the manufacturer's recommendations for Scotchgard application and reapplication intervals. The frequency of reapplication may depend on factors such as usage, exposure to spills, and the type of surface being treated. Overall, reapplying Scotchgard is a proactive measure to protect and preserve the quality and appearance of various surfaces in your home.
