Cleanfast Carpet Cleaning Shampoo pH 13 | Professional Carpet & Upholstery Cleaner
Cleanfast Carpet Cleaning Shampoo pH 13 is a powerful, highly concentrated professional cleaning solution developed for the deep cleaning of heavily soiled carpets and compatible upholstery. Formulated to tackle stubborn stains, unpleasant odours, greasy contamination and deeply embedded grime, it provides the intensive cleaning action required when ordinary carpet detergents are simply not strong enough.
With a high alkaline pH of approximately 13, this is a heavy-duty professional carpet cleaning chemical intended for demanding cleaning applications. Its concentrated formulation provides excellent cleaning power against accumulated dirt and oily residues, making it particularly useful for commercial carpets, heavily trafficked areas, rental properties and other environments where substantial contamination needs to be removed.
Cleanfast Carpet Cleaning Shampoo can be incorporated into professional carpet extraction cleaning systems to loosen and remove contamination from carpet fibres.
For professional carpet cleaners, contract cleaners, property maintenance companies and experienced users looking for serious cleaning performance, Cleanfast Carpet Cleaning Shampoo provides a powerful and economical solution.
## High-Strength pH 13 Carpet Cleaning Formula
The most important characteristic of Cleanfast Carpet Cleaning Shampoo is its powerful alkaline formulation.
With a pH of approximately 13, the product provides considerably stronger cleaning action than a neutral everyday carpet maintenance detergent.
This makes it particularly effective against oily and greasy contamination.
Carpets can accumulate much more than visible dust. Oils transferred from footwear, food contamination, atmospheric pollution and other residues can gradually bind dirt to the carpet fibres.
Vacuuming removes loose particles but cannot necessarily remove this bonded contamination.
Cleanfast Carpet Cleaning Shampoo helps break down these difficult residues so they can be suspended and recovered during the cleaning process.
Because the product is strongly alkaline, however, correct dilution, fibre identification and compatibility testing are extremely important.
## Deep Cleaning for Heavily Soiled Carpets
Some carpets require substantially more cleaning power than others.
Entrance areas, corridors, offices, rental properties and other heavily trafficked spaces can accumulate considerable quantities of dirt.
Over time, carpet fibres may become dull and discoloured even when they are vacuumed regularly.
Cleanfast Carpet Cleaning Shampoo is designed for this type of demanding work.
The powerful formulation penetrates into the carpet pile and helps release accumulated contamination so that it can be removed using suitable professional carpet cleaning equipment.
This can dramatically improve the appearance of carpets that have become heavily soiled through prolonged use.
## Removes Tough Stains and Embedded Grime
Stains do not always remain on the surface of a carpet.
Spillages can penetrate between fibres while repeated foot traffic pushes contamination deeper into the pile.
Once dirt becomes embedded, ordinary spray-and-wipe cleaning is unlikely to provide satisfactory results.
Cleanfast Carpet Cleaning Shampoo provides the additional chemical cleaning action needed to loosen stubborn contamination.
When combined with appropriate agitation and extraction, the product can help lift dirt from within the carpet pile and prepare it for recovery.
Extremely difficult individual stains may still require specialist spot-treatment products depending on the nature of the contamination.
Always identify stains where possible before selecting additional chemicals.
## Helps Deal with Unpleasant Carpet Odours
Dirty carpets can develop unpleasant smells from accumulated contamination.
Food residues, general dirt and other organic contamination may all contribute to odour problems, particularly when carpets have not received periodic deep cleaning.
Cleanfast Carpet Cleaning Shampoo helps remove the contamination responsible for many of these unwanted smells.
This is preferable to simply applying a fragrance over a dirty carpet.
A genuinely clean carpet provides a much better foundation for maintaining a fresher indoor environment than attempting to disguise contamination with perfume alone.
Where odours originate from specialist contamination such as urine, smoke, mould or substantial biological residues, an appropriate specialist treatment may also be required.
## Suitable for Professional Extraction Cleaning
Cleanfast Carpet Cleaning Shampoo works effectively as part of a professional carpet extraction cleaning process.
Extraction cleaning combines chemical action with controlled water application and powerful recovery.
The cleaning solution loosens contamination from the fibres, while the extraction machine removes dirty solution from the carpet.
This process is particularly effective on heavily soiled carpets because contamination is physically recovered rather than simply redistributed through the pile.
Using a powerful professional detergent with appropriate extraction equipment can provide a much deeper result than manual surface cleaning alone.
Good recovery is also important because it helps minimise detergent residue and unnecessary moisture remaining within the carpet.
## Suitable for Compatible Upholstery
Cleanfast Carpet Cleaning Shampoo can also be used for suitable water-washable upholstery where the fabric has been confirmed compatible with a high-alkaline cleaning process.
Extra caution is required when cleaning upholstery.
Furniture fabrics can contain natural fibres, unstable dyes, specialist coatings and mixed materials that may react differently from synthetic commercial carpeting.
Never assume that a fabric is suitable simply because it looks durable.
Check the manufacturer's cleaning instructions where available and always carry out a colourfastness and compatibility test before treating the complete item.
## How to Use Cleanfast Carpet Cleaning Shampoo
Correct preparation is essential when working with a professional pH 13 carpet cleaning chemical.
### Step 1 – Identify the Carpet or Fabric
Determine the fibre type and confirm that it is suitable for alkaline wet cleaning.
Avoid using a strongly alkaline product on sensitive fibres unless compatibility has been specifically established.
### Step 2 – Vacuum Thoroughly
Dry vacuum the carpet before applying any cleaning solution.
Remove as much loose soil, hair, grit and dust as possible.
There is little benefit in turning easily removable dry soil into wet contamination.
### Step 3 – Test for Compatibility
Select a small inconspicuous section of carpet or upholstery.
Test the correctly prepared cleaning solution and check for colour bleeding, fading, texture changes or other unwanted reactions.
Do not proceed if the material reacts adversely.
### Step 4 – Wear Appropriate PPE
Put on suitable chemical-resistant protective gloves.
Because the concentrated product is strongly alkaline, suitable eye protection should also be worn when measuring, mixing or handling the chemical.
### Step 5 – Prepare the Cleaning Solution
Cleanfast Carpet Cleaning Shampoo is highly concentrated and should be diluted according to the directions provided on the product label for the intended cleaning method.
**Do not guess the dilution rate and do not assume that using additional chemical will produce a better result.**
Over-concentration can leave excessive residues, increase the risk of fibre damage and make rinsing more difficult.
Measure the chemical accurately and add it to the appropriate quantity of clean water.
### Step 6 – Apply the Solution
Apply the prepared solution evenly using the chosen professional carpet cleaning method.
Avoid unnecessarily saturating the carpet.
Particular attention can be given to heavily trafficked and visibly contaminated areas.
### Step 7 – Allow Suitable Cleaning Action
Give the cleaning solution sufficient opportunity to loosen contamination.
Do not allow the detergent to dry completely into the carpet.
### Step 8 – Agitate Where Required
Heavily soiled carpets may benefit from controlled agitation using a suitable carpet brush or professional agitation machine.
Agitation helps distribute the cleaning solution and release contamination attached to the fibres.
### Step 9 – Extract Thoroughly
Use a professional extraction machine to recover the dirty cleaning solution.
Work systematically and ensure as much moisture and contamination as practical is removed.
### Step 10 – Rinse Where Appropriate
Where required, carry out a suitable extraction rinse to help remove remaining alkaline detergent and suspended contamination.
### Step 11 – Allow the Carpet to Dry
Provide good ventilation and airflow.
Keep people away from the cleaned carpet until it has dried appropriately.
## Important pH 13 Safety Considerations
A pH of approximately 13 means this product should be treated as a **strong alkaline professional cleaning chemical**.
Always read the product label and relevant Safety Data Sheet before use.
Wear suitable chemical-resistant gloves when handling the concentrated product or prepared solution.
Wear suitable eye protection when pouring, measuring, mixing or spraying where splashing could occur.
Avoid direct contact with the skin and eyes.
If accidental exposure occurs, immediately follow the first-aid instructions provided on the product label and Safety Data Sheet.
Avoid breathing unnecessary spray mist.
Ensure adequate ventilation while cleaning, particularly in enclosed areas.
Wash your hands thoroughly after handling the product and before eating, drinking or smoking.
## Never Mix with Other Cleaning Chemicals
Do not mix Cleanfast Carpet Cleaning Shampoo with bleach, acids, descalers, disinfectants or unrelated cleaning chemicals.
Mixing cleaning chemicals can create dangerous reactions and may also damage carpets, equipment or surrounding surfaces.
This warning is especially important because Cleanfast Carpet Cleaning Shampoo is highly alkaline.
Always prepare the product separately according to its own instructions.
Never transfer the chemical into an unlabelled drinks bottle or other unsuitable container.
## Protect Sensitive Materials
High-alkaline carpet cleaners are not appropriate for every textile.
Exercise particular caution with wool, natural fibres, delicate upholstery, unstable dyes and specialist carpets.
For wool and other sensitive fibres, select an appropriately approved lower-pH or specialist cleaning product instead unless the carpet manufacturer specifically confirms compatibility.
Protect surrounding furniture, wood, metal and other materials from accidental overspray or splashing.
Immediately deal with accidental spills according to the product instructions.
## Storage and Handling
Keep Cleanfast Carpet Cleaning Shampoo in its original labelled container.
Store the container upright and securely closed when not in use.
Keep it away from children, pets and unauthorised users.
Avoid unsuitable storage conditions such as excessive heat and always follow the storage information provided with the product.
Professional cleaning chemicals should be stored separately from food and drink.
## Professional Cleaning Power for Demanding Carpets
Cleanfast Carpet Cleaning Shampoo pH 13 provides the high-strength cleaning action required for heavily soiled carpets and compatible upholstery.
Its highly concentrated alkaline formulation tackles tough stains, greasy contamination, unpleasant odours and deeply embedded grime, making it particularly suitable for professional cleaners and demanding residential or commercial cleaning projects.
For the best results, vacuum thoroughly, identify the carpet fibre, carry out a compatibility test, dilute the product strictly according to the label and apply it evenly. Agitate heavily contaminated areas where appropriate before recovering the dirty solution using professional extraction equipment.
Because of its approximately pH 13 formulation, responsible chemical handling is essential. Wear suitable gloves and eye protection, provide good ventilation, avoid sensitive fibres and never mix the product with other chemicals.
Used correctly with suitable professional equipment, Cleanfast Carpet Cleaning Shampoo provides powerful, reliable and economical deep-cleaning performance for carpets requiring considerably more than ordinary everyday maintenance.
