Fuser Oil
#1
Any recommendations on how to remove a stain caused by fuser oil from an old copy machine from commercial carpeting?

A couple of nights back on pro cleaners network a CTI chem specialist used their pro solve and their power gel to get rid of ink, shoe polish ect.... in the demo they provided, stains were convincingly removed with those products.

Fuser oil is what keeps the drum free of toner or ink so you do not the paper stuck to the drum or residue from another copy your paper.
Most of the time now the oils is imbedded into a roller

I found a spec sheet for the fuser oil of a Xerox copier. It appears to be silicone based and therefore not water-soluble. The stain is at a library in Missouri and they complained that the stain was not removed by VLM and leached back and based on their experience would not use VLM again. But, I doubt the person servicing the carpet knew that the stain was made up of silicone. I think that a pre-application of Orange Sol 10151 De-Solv-It Contractors' Solvent followed by extraction and encap absorption would work.

If it's silicone, I'd hit it with CTI's Pro Solve Gel, followed by Encap-Spot. It'll get it done.
