Title: hot chocolate mega stain!
Post by: misterrartois on May 15, 2007, 03:53:22 pm

Ive been asked to clean a carpet  where there is a massive (and i do mean massive!)hot chocolate/cocoa stain!Mixed in also the customer thinks,is a coffee stain too.

Im thinking of letting the enzymes do the work first (mixed in with traffic lane cleaner)then removing..then using tannin remover afters..before thoroughly hwe.

Ami going about it the right way?Any advice further ??

Cheers all!!

Hi,
I would apply stainpro allow dwell time and extract with fabric & fibre rinse.
Then i would use browning prescription or coffee stain remover (mixed 1-1 with water) if browning prescription, apply and leave for 20 mins, then extract again.

 I'd rinse it with freshwater and  have a look at it.  then I'd dab it with a cloth soaked with M/S and see if there's any transfer,

then start at the  bottom then work up.

Enzymys are great, but you have to use them on their own. Mixing will negate the enzymatic effect.
