Specifications for One Step Quick Dry - In Tank Carpet and Upholstery Cleaner Concentrate
All aboard the express train.
"One Step Quick Dry is the fastest, safest, easiest and most effective way to professionally clean carpets."
One Step Quick Dry has changed the professional carpet cleaning industry forever. It's the ultimate all-in-one, wool and fibre-friendly, fast-drying, super-concentrated cleaning liquid. It goes straight into the clean water solution tank of portable carpet extractor machines and can be used through high-temperature truck mount chemical injection systems. That's right... with One Step Quick Dry, there's no more pre-spraying!
Although carpet pre-spraying certainly has its merits, it’s one of the most time-consuming and expensive steps in the carpet cleaning process. It's also responsible for sometimes damaging surfaces like furniture, curtains, electrical appliances, wall sockets/plugs, beds and hard floors from overspray created by the spray lance (and bad aim!). With One Step Quick Dry there are no more frustrating pump-up or inline sprayers to deal with and no more neutralising rinses required. That means you get better, more consistent results in a fraction of the time with a simpler, safer cleaning procedure that dries fast too!
One Step Quick Dry has a well-buffered pH and far exceeds all wool safety testing criteria currently used in the industry both in Australia and internationally. And your clients will love the fresh, long-lasting spice fragrance. It's our most popular super concentrated carpet cleaning product because it's simple, fast, safe and easy to use.
Where to use
One Step Quick Dry gives you fantastic results even on heavily soiled and greasy areas. It is safe for use on all types of carpets in virtually all domestic, commercial, institutional and industrial applications including restaurants, pubs, clubs, offices, hotels and homes.

Carpet cleaning (express 1-step)
1. Test on a small inconspicuous area first to ensure the suitability of this product.
2. Vacuum. Thoroughly dry vacuum the carpet with an upright vacuum cleaner or a vacuum fitted with a powerhead or turbo head to remove loose soil.
3. Add the correct amount of water and One Step Quick Dry concentrate to the clean water solution tank of a portable carpet extraction machine. Dilute at 800:1 (800 parts water and 1 part One Step Quick Dry). That's approximately 99% water and <1% One Step Quick Dry (50ml of One Step Quick Dry in 40 litres of water or 1.25ml per litre). For heavy-duty applications, dilute at 400:1 (400 parts water and 1 part One Step Quick Dry).
4. Extract and Clean. Using a portable carpet cleaning machine, clean/extract the carpet using slightly overlapping strokes.
5. Use a carpet rake if necessary to re-align carpet fibres and speed up drying. Using a carpet dryer, air mover or just turning on an air conditioning system may also speed up the drying process.
6. Dry. Before the area is opened to traffic allow to dry. Air movers will speed up drying and impress your customers!
Handy tips
• Always test first in an inconspicuous area before using any cleaning solution. Play it safe, especially when you use a product for the first time. Better to be safe than sorry. Some surfaces can be sensitive to moisture and particular chemical types.
• Use warm to hot water to boost your cleaning performance (especially on oil, fat and grease).
• When pre-spraying use Plush rinse in the clean water tank for increased fibre safety and faster drying.
• Use Bubble Buster defoamer in your dirty water tank if you experience foaming from existing chemical residues in the fibres.
• Move the wand slower across heavily soiled carpet areas.
• Go over the carpet a second time dry (without pulling your wand trigger), to extract additional water and achieve dryer carpets.
• When diluting chemicals add the water first and the chemical last to prevent foaming, splashes and spills.
• For best results use freshly diluted cleaning solutions.
