AGAR Browning Treatment - Carpet Stain Remover - 5L

Revitalize your carpets and upholstery with Browning Treatment, a potent liquid solution designed to eliminate jute stain cellulosic browning caused by overwetting or flooding. Say goodbye to unsightly brown discolourations and welcome back the vibrancy of your textiles.

What's In It?

BROWNING TREATMENT contains mild acids that can release cellulosic browning stains from the fibres, together with wetting agents to help it wet out the fibres.

How Does It Work?

When a cellulosic fibre such as jute, cotton or linen is wet with water and allowed to dry very slowly, a brown discolouration often appears at the point where the evaporation of the moisture takes place. This brown colour is known as cellulosic browning. It results from the degradation of cellulose and is a similar discolouration to the yellowing that occurs as a newspaper yellows with age. Most carpets contain one or more cellulosic fibres. For example, in tufted carpets jute is used as the primary or secondary backing. Some rugs are made entirely of cotton. Consequently, when these carpets or rugs are cleaned by shampooing or by hot water extraction they may develop browning when they dry because the moisture may carry brown cellulosic matter up onto the fibres.

How To Use It

Pre-test for colour-fastness by dabbing Browning Treatment on a white cloth onto each colour in the pattern. If no dye transfer or fading appears, it is safe to proceed.

1. Spray neat browning treatment onto browning stains and gently work in using a carpet rake, brush, cloth, or gloved hand.

2. After 5-10 minutes of contact the excess moisture should be wiped off or vacuumed up.

Do not rinse carpets, but do rinse upholstery. Dry as much as possible by wet-vacuuming or blotting with clean white cloth or paper towel. Repeat application if necessary on persistent stains.
