Commercial Fire

Dry cleaning is commonly the method used in removing soot and the use of a dry chemical sponge is used in this process. The sponge is 100% natural rubber and is non-abrasive.

Another method used is Wet cleaning which uses a specialized solution to remove the soot. This method should be done with caution on porous surfaces.

The soot damage should be treated or properly removed as soon as possible as tiny particles of the soot can be inhaled. Black soot can be mistaken for mold. Sometimes black soot can be from scented candles as the oils in the candle do not burn completely, then the oil enters the air and turns into black soot.
