Any advice on cleaning a off white wool area rug that has been prone to browning in the past by other cleaners?

Clean with a rinse agent. Use minimum water and speed dry. Often the browning that reoccurs can come from an alkaline residue not just cellulostic browning. |

Use a neutral ph prespray.
Rule of thumb on wool, use twice the prespray as on nylons. |
