Hello Bernd,
Welcome to the world of encap! This system can open many doors, especially in the commercial sector!
Yes, that's a good plan of action to use Encap-HydrOx. Test for color-fastness first. Pre-spot with Encap-HydrOx, using the "Protein Spot" dilution below. Then clean following the Shampoo/Encap directions below. There are always variables, but that should work for you. Take pictures, and let us know how you make out.
Here's an excerpt from the Encap-HydrOx label...
SHAMPOO/ENCAP METHOD: Mix 8-10 oz of Encap-HydrOx per gallon of hot water. Scrub the carpet with an appropriate scrubber.
TRAFFIC LANE PRE-SPRAY: Mix Encap-HydrOx at 12 oz per gallon. Apply with a sprayer using a coarse spray tip. Allow 5-10 minutes of dwell time.
HOT WATER EXTRACTION: Mix Encap-HydrOx at 1-2 oz per gallon in portable extractors. For truck-mounts mix 1 quart per 5 gallons of stock solution.
PROTEIN SPOT REMOVAL: Mix 1-part Encap-HydrOx with 3-parts water. Apply a liberal amount of the spotting mixture to the spot. Allow 5-10 minutes of dwell time. Blot with a towel. Rinsing is not normally required.
BROWNING TREATMENT: Mix Encap-HydrOx at 20 oz per gallon. Spray the affected area thoroughly. Allow 10 minutes of dwell time. Clean using minimal moisture, and dry the area quickly!
UPHOLSTERY SHAMPOO: Mix Encap-HydrOx at 8-10oz. per gallon of warm or hot water. Apply evenly using a coarse tip sprayer. Brush the fabric gently with a horse hair brush or equivalent SOFT bristled brush. Gently towel off the upholstery.
IMPORTANT: Test for colorfastness in an inconspicuous area prior to cleaning.
