Pre spray
« on: October 18, 2006, 05:25:25 pm »
Hello everyone,

Small (or big) problem here..  Got some Wool rugs to clean Tomorrow but realised i dont have the correct prespray for them.

I have Fibresafe Gold and Liquid Woolsafe for extraction,  but only Stain Pro and Multi Pro pre sprays (both 10.5 PH)

Cant get the Pre Spray Gold until Monday, any ideas?

If you going to use 1 of those 2 then it has to be Multi Pro as Stain Pro isnt even a pre spray, its a spotter.

Rinse well with Fibresafe Gold, and read the lables, I can't believe you considered Stain Pro as a pre spray. ???

Ta steve, i wasn't, just thats whats in my bag.  I realise Stain Pro is for Stains..   :-\

Just worried the Multi Pro is high PH?

Thanks for your advise..

pre-spray it with your extraction solution but let it dwell for longer or use a weaker solution of multi pro if it is'nt buffered then the PH should reduce to a woolsafe state.

Do your colour bleed tests for colour run 1st with multi pro.

Thanks,  I decided to do 1 of the rugs tonight.  It is cream around the edges with 4 colour squares in the centre. 

I presprayed with a weaker solution of Multi Pro then extracted with Liquid Woolsafe.  The Colours look great but the Cream looks dirty, maybe because its still a bit wet?

Any sugestions if its still grubby when dry?


Thanks in advance..   8)
