Carpet spot remover

The product in detail

Attax Pro ATX5492 is a 1 L spot cleaner for carpet and upholstery. The supplier describes a combination of detergents and solvents to loosen stains, with a spring-flower fragrance. It is used on a localized area; stain type and dye stability determine the possible treatment.

Helps release soil from fibres so it transfers to the cloth. Vigorous rubbing can spread the spot and damage fibres.

Listed specifications

Supplier specifications. Performance varies with configuration and conditions of use. Follow the supplied product’s manual and label.

Surfaces and compatibility

For localized soil on fibres and backing that permit this spot cleaner. Identify the stain, previous treatments and textile care code.

Preparation and use

Blot excess liquid and test colourfastness. Follow the label and blot from the edge toward the centre with a white cloth. Remove residue as directed.

1. Remove solids and blot free liquid.
2. Test colourfastness in a hidden area with a white cloth.
3. Apply at the specified dose and contact time.
4. Blot from the edge toward the centre without aggressive rubbing; use a clean section of cloth.
5. Remove residue as instructed and let the area dry before assessing results.

Care and storage

Keep clean white cloths available and maintain any extraction tool used. If the stain returns during drying, moisture may have wicked from the backing: reassess recovery rather than repeatedly adding product.

Limits and things to check

Discoloration or burned fibres may remain visible after soil removal. Stop if dye transfers or texture changes. Do not layer multiple spot cleaners without a validated procedure.

Equipment, accessories and options

Absorbent white cloths and a recovery tool if specified.
