Chemspec Crystal Defoamer for Carpet Cleaning
Chemspec® Crystal Defoamer for Carpet Cleaning
A common problem in truckmounted carpet cleaning is FOAM, which can increase drying time, greatly reduce cleaning effectiveness and cause damage to the vacuum pump and other equipment. Crystal Defoamer solves this problem. Simply sprinkle a few tablespoons over the area to be extracted and forget about foaming.
In SEVERE cases of carpet shampoo and spotter residue in the carpet, sprinkle Crystal Defoamer onto the carpet before extraction cleaning. NEVER spray liquid silicone defoamer directly onto a carpet or rug!
Advantages of Crystal Defoamer from Chemspec:
- Crystal Defoamer prevents foam from developing on carpet and stops foam buildup in your vacuum hose and recovery tank.
- Destroys at the very point where it is generated: on the floor area where the extraction floor tool makes contact.
- Never cakes or clumps up; dissolves completely and easily in water for complete extraction.
- Rinses free during proper cleaning.
- Odorless and won’t spot the carpet or cause resoiling.
