What removes fingerprinting dust from carpet and upholstery ?

Also, another question, where can i purchase the ring that goes around scrubber that keeps it from slinging stuff everywhere when scrubbing hard surfaces?

Your prompt replies would be appreciated.

Thanks

Wayne

If you have the Cimex I would pre spray with some punch. Then make several passes over the spots working in punch. Then after araea is dryer, clean with Releasit® Encap-Clean DS™. The fingeprinting dust is most times made of carbon powder. I have worked with carbon powder in the past Nasty stuff. It is pretty easy to remove with lots of agitation.

A few years ago, a young girl was murdered in Cairns.

We had the job of cleaning the motel room, including carpets.

The cops had f/p dust over everything from 18" above the floor to a height of over 6'

I had no less than 6 phone calls from the cops down in Brisbane, 1,200 miles away, telling me how to clean the carpet and under no circumstances to wet it, otherwise I would be paying for new carpet, polyprop;

I took a lot of notice, and pre-sprayed with an alkaline detergent, following up with an acid rinse.

The manager said the carpets had never looked so good.

I have done several carpets in this condition, always the same way.

But I have not tried Releasit, or any other encap product.................as yet.

Hope this helps.
