Customer has phoned me about getting an orange cat sick stain from an 80-20 twist.

I'nm going to have a look on my way home tomorrowm first thoughts after rinsing is to use acid rinse and then debrown and the sod met.

What are your thoughts?

Shaun,
I would rinse with acid rinse then go straight to the sod met, missing out the de-brown treatment.

My suspicions Shaun, are that the orange stain has been caused by incorrect treatment of the original stain by the owner.

Apart from the food & medications that the animal have eaten, vomit tends to be high in hydrochloric acid from the stomach. Using an acid rinse will probably enhance the acidity of the stain/soil. After usual testing,  I would therefore first either freshwater or better still mildly alkaline rinse then treat with a pet stain neutraliser. Then take it from there.

Safe and happy cleaning :)

Forget it, tell her to claim on her insurance, if she has AD cover . Provide a report and charge for that £60+VAT

Done plenty over the years and have cats myself. It's a non starter

I'm with catman on that and I don't have cats.
With most large stains I tell them to claim off insurance and I provide a Stain Damge Report for them.
Charge accordingly as well.

Tres Bon Kenneth

Attacked with a cleaner of some description, I've acid rinsed and then debrowned but customer didn't want any more as they want to claim on their insurance.
