Neutraliser is a powerful solution for neutralising alkaline residues in carpets and hard floors.

Key Benefits:

• Neutralises alkalinity quickly.
• Powerful at treating browning stains.

How Does It Work?

Neutraliser is an acetic acid solution for neutralising alkalinity in carpets and hard floors. Neutraliser is also a powerful browning treatment for removing cellulosic browning stains caused by over wetting, flooding or alkaline reactions in carpets or upholstery.

For Use On:

When carpets have been extraction-cleaned with highly alkaline detergent, an alkaline residue may be left in the fibres. By rinsing with Neutraliser, this residue is neutralised, and the pH level is returned to an acceptable, neutral value. When porous hard floors are stripped with alkaline polish removers, a similar alkaline residue may be left in the floor’s surface. By rinsing with Neutraliser in the rinse water, such residues are neutralised so they will not be able to spoil the floor sealer when it is applied to the floor.

Application:

Carpets - Neutralising Alkalinity:

• Dilute Neutraliser to 1 in 100 and spray onto the carpet. Extract with vacuum only.

Carpets - Removal of Browning Stains:

• Pre-test for colourfastness by dabbing Neutraliser on a white cloth onto each colour in the carpet or upholstery. If no dye transfer or fading appears, it is safe to proceed.
• Spray neat Neutraliser onto browning stains and gently work in using a carpet rake, brush, cloth or gloved hand.
• Do not create a mist but use a coarse spray.
• Do not rinse carpets- but do rinse upholstery with a 1 in 100 solution of Neutraliser.
• Dry as much as possible by wet-vacuuming or blotting with a clean white cloth or paper towel.
• Repeat application, if necessary, on persistent stains. 

Hard Floors - Neutralising after stripping:

• Dilute Neutraliser to 1 in 200 in the rinse water and then rinse the floor in the usual way.
• It is best to rinse very porous floors with larger volumes of rinse water.
