Title: Dirtbusters Clean & Protect
Post by: CleanerCarpets on February 20, 2015, 06:36:54 pm: I have seen this product before online and now they sponsor this site

Has anyone used the clean & protect? is it an encap or shampoo? Any other products tried by anyone?

I wasn't impressed with its cleaning ability today but I have only used it once it foams a lot which wasn't good . I'm not sure what its protective abilities are though but at the moment it doesn't look like a winner to me. This may all change once I have used it a bit more and tested whether it does protect or not.

the Stapro rust remover is brilliant and yet the Prochem rust remover which should have thousands of pounds of research behind it is sh#te

Is using it for one day a true test? What if you had come across an easy clean carpet and it cleaned it brilliantly, would you then be recommending it's amazing power to us all? Use it for a month on every job then gives us you view :D

"I wasn't impressed with its cleaning ability today but I have only used it once"

and

"This may all change once I have used it a bit more and tested whether it does protect or not."

I do intend to use it more and see if I have any better results however these are my findings so far.

changes of these products containing anything other brands dont contain is slim to zero ..
Il bet they put more thought into the brand names and colour dye they'd put through them than the content .
