Title: White Polprop
Post by: james roffey on July 28, 2010, 06:11:43 pm
I have the filthiest white polyprop carpet to do in the morning my normal approach would be a high strength mix of hot ultrapac renovate, lots of dwell time and agitate with envirodri then extract .

Some of the stains look a bit oily and i wondered if these might present a problem, will this method produce the best results and what else could i try.

PS

My thanks to Mike Halliday and Paul Pearce for taking the time to advise on a particularly nasty restoration job  today  :-X)

Hi Jim

Sounds nice!

Your mix should clean oil stains off PP, but remember to keep white spirit and a cloth handy to loosen really stubborn marks.

Other boosting options include enzymes and isopropanol .

Cheers

Doug

just spray citra boost neat on to the oily bits before agitation, works a treat.

cheers Doug i have some white spirit on van but never thought to use it this way more a spot remover although i have never used it always use the prochem solvex and solvall but white spirit would be a cheap alternative.

Doug did you get a call for some commercial customer in London just unable to do it so gave them your name, quite a big job by the sound of it.

cheers Derek The citra boost looks good stuff never used it though may get some now, trouble is i seem to collect so much stuff, when i got the Airflex recently i inherited a load more chemicals so still experimenting.
