Different types of stains require different types of cleaners to effectively remove the stains, and to prevent re-soiling due to incomplete stain removal and subsequent wicking of the stain back to the surface. With D106 Fiber Rinse & Tannin Stain Remover and D116 Protein Stain Remover, we've got all the bases covered.
Stains can generally be broken down into two subsets - tannins and proteins. Tannin stains include things like coffee, tea, wine and similar while protein stains are generally things like milk, food, urine and other organic matter. Dealing with those tannin stains is usually fairly straightforward, and D106 makes the process simple and effective. Ready to use, D106 can be used either with a bonnet cleaning method or tamping method. Bonnet Cleaning refers to a process whereby you wrap a towel around a carpet brush and rub it back and forth over the stain, rotating the towel as it becomes soiled. The Tamping Method involves laying the towel onto the stain and firmly pressing the brush against it in successive strikes or blows, again rotating or refolding the towel as it becomes soiled.
Protein stains tend to be a bit more difficult to address. D116 tackles the task by utilizing cleaners that directly attack the proteins. D116 can be used in a couple of different ways: either as a booster to your D106 cleaning solution or used straight, undiluted for very stubborn stains. Either way you use it, however, it is important to then neutralize the area by spraying with a dilute mix of D106. This will minimize the reappearance of the soiled spot that so commonly frustrates us all.
The graphic below outlines these process very clearly.
