Carpet fibers made of polyesters, nylon and some acrylics are damaged by the sharp pieces of grit you bring in on your shoes multiple times each day. If you don’t regularly clean the carpet to remove this grit-laden dirt, it eventually abrades, flattens and crushes the fibers. The fibers may be clean, but they’ve been damaged in such as way that they don’t reflect light in the same way undamaged fibers do. The familiar gray appearance of a dirty-looking carpet appears. You may clean the carpet numerous times, but since the gray color is a result of damage rather than dirt, it still looks dirty. The best way to prevent this is to have your carpet cleaned professionally at least once a year.
