Specifications for Dry Force - Bonnet Carpet Cleaner & Encapsulation Liquid
I'll leave your carpets clean and dry.
Dry Force is a specially formulated professional cleaning concentrate for the dry / bonnet carpet cleaning method.
This cutting-edge formulation delivers powerful cleaning performance on trodden in dirt, soils, oils and stains. The special blend of surfactants effectively emulsifies oily soils allowing for them to be absorbed into your bonnet fitted to your slow-speed rotary machine. Any residues that are left behind in the fibres are encapsulated and crystalised by the advanced polymer technology. The polymer dries quickly and becomes brittle so it can be easily removed from the fibres during routine vacuuming. The cool part of this amazing technology is that any polymer residues from the process do not attract dirt or soil which means your fibres stay cleaner for longer.
Dry Force is an outstanding bonnet carpet cleaning product that displays good foaming action which assists the user to track their progress. For the ultimate in fibre safety, ease of use, economy, performance and speed, choose Dry Force.
Where to use
Dry Force is suitable for commercial and residential carpet care where areas need to be cleaned and back in use immediately with minimal downtime. That's why it's popular in hotels and apartments where carpets must be cleaned quickly and completely dry for incoming guests. The Dry Force process is most popular on low pile synthetic commercial carpets found in schools, offices, retail outlets, conference centres, medical centres, nursing homes, hospitals, homes, hotels, resorts and apartments.

Carpet encapsulation cleaning
1. Dilute at 25:1 (25 parts water and 1 part Dry Force). That's approximately 96% water and 4% Dry Force (160ml of Dry Force in 4 litres of water or 40ml per litre). For heavy-duty applications, dilute at 16:1 (16 parts water and 1 part Dry Force).
2. Test on a small inconspicuous area first to ensure the suitability of this product.
3. 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.
4. Pre-spray. Generously apply pre-spray. Do not allow to dry before cleaning. Also, pre-spray the bonnet or brush lightly. For deeper cleaning the bonnet can be fully immersed in the diluted solution and wrung out.
5. Scrub and agitate. Use a slow-speed scrubber with a carpet brush or bonnet. A detergent tank on the scrubber for applying additional product is recommended but optional. Clean 20m² at a time in both directions – north to south, flip bonnet or brush and then east to west.
6. Use a carpet rake if necessary to re-align carpet fibres and speed up drying.
7. Dry. Before the area is opened to traffic allow to dry.
8. Maintain. Leave for 1 day before vacuuming. The encapsulated dirt and soil will be removed with subsequent routine vacuuming.
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).
• Move slower across heavily soiled carpet areas.
• 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.
• Always extract rinse using Plush if you intend to apply a fabric protector to the cleaned carpet.
