- 4 lb per 20 L: approximately 15:1
Adjust according to equipment requirements, carpet condition and cleaning requirements.
Use as a Carpet Prespray

When used with compatible Hydro-Force-style proportioning equipment, follow the equipment manufacturer’s dilution requirements to achieve the desired working concentration.
- For heavily soiled carpeting, the product label also indicates that additional Carpet Detergent TM or a compatible booster may be used as required.
Suitable for Professional Carpet Cleaning Equipment
The versatility of Carpet Detergent TM makes it suitable for professional cleaners operating different types of carpet extraction equipment.
Typical applications include:
- Portable carpet extractors
- Truck mount carpet cleaning systems
- Carpet cleaning prespray systems
- Commercial carpet cleaning
- Heavily soiled carpet restoration
- Professional maintenance cleaning
Important Fibre & Colourfastness Testing
Always test carpeting for colourfastness before cleaning.
The manufacturer’s directions recommend testing Carpet Detergent TM in an inconspicuous area before proceeding with the complete cleaning.
Avoid overspray onto non-carpeted surfaces. If overspray contacts other surfaces, including glass or hard-surface flooring, remove it promptly.
Wool Carpet Warning
- Carpet Detergent TM is not recommended for wool, silk, nylon, cotton or Generation Five nylon carpets such as DuPont StainMaster-type carpeting.
For these fibres and carpet constructions, select a compatible professional carpet cleaning detergent instead.
Water Cleaning & Browning Considerations
The product directions also address carpet browning and colour bleeding.
For carpets susceptible to these problems, the manufacturer recommends an acidic post-treatment or rinse appropriate for the carpet being cleaned.
Professional cleaners should always identify the carpet fibre, construction and dye stability before choosing a cleaning chemical.
Why Choose a Powdered Carpet Extraction Detergent?
Powdered extraction detergents provide professional cleaners with a highly concentrated product that can be mixed according to the cleaning equipment and level of soil encountered.
Because Carpet Detergent TM can function as both an extraction detergent and carpet prespray, a professional cleaner can adjust the solution for different jobs rather than being limited to one application method.
Its concentrated 2 lb package also takes up considerably less storage space than an equivalent volume of ready-to-use liquid cleaner. Humans have finally discovered one situation where carrying around less water makes sense.
