If it's a domestic product it's unlikely to be of use to cleaning pro's......but it would be worth trying out

rob, it was not in my thoughts to utilise this product as part of my armoury,
more along the lines of knowing its make up for the benifit of informing custys etc, as we do regarding other of the shelf products.

I am always suspicious of these foam cleaners. The spot removers available from the supermarkets can be lethal to carpet and the bonnet type of shampoo( now mostly not used) looked fine for a day or two and then rapidly resoiled, also filled the machine with foam when cleaned properly later. The new types of encapsulation products are supposed to overcome this but still rely on a very thorough vaccing after treatment. I have not tried them but I my own opinion the only way to clean a normal domestic carpet is to use HWE.

Why don't you buy Professional products eg, Craftex / Texatherm/ One Step and many others will supply you in 500mls at prices low enough to retail at around £7 to £10

You just add your own sticker with the obvious comment ''  when you need another ...call 000 000000 ''

I started doing this years ago and it really works well. In many cases I simply leave one behind, telling the client, that it's the product I've just used.
