Specifications for Goop-o-matic 3000 - Grease, Oil & All Purpose Stain Remover
3000 times better than not using it.
Goop-o-matic 3000 is a high-performance non-DG safety spotter designed to remove a broad range of stains on carpets, upholstery, laundry and hard surfaces. We set ourselves the challenge to create a stain remover that could replace the usual solvent and alcohol-based spotters that are hectic to use and hard to ship and store due to their DG (Dangerous Goods) classification.
Goop-o-matic 3000 is intelligently formulated with a range of safe high-tech ingredients that increase fibre and surface safety. It's a pleasure to use and much safer for users. The spotter works fast on a multitude of stains including paint, oil, grease, gum, adhesive, wax, pen, tar, lipstick, crayon, ink, food oils, graffiti, shoe polish, scuff/tyre marks and more. Goop-o-matic 3000 is your ‘go-to’ product when it comes to stain removal.
Where to use
Goop-o-matic 3000 is suitable for use on almost all washable carpets, upholstery, curtains, laundry (prewash stain remover) and hard surfaces.
Goop-o-matic 3000 has become very popular amongst hard surface and stone professionals as it removes the same stains as it does on carpet with the added advantage of having great penetration, without damaging the surface.
Where not to use
Do not use on plastic, painted, acrylic or other solvent-sensitive surfaces without pre-testing. This product can permanently damage some carpet backings (especially bitumen-backed carpets), hard floor sealers and polymer coatings.

Carpet and upholstery spotting (bottle use)
1. Test on a small inconspicuous area first to ensure the suitability of the product on the surface.
2. Remove (sponge or scrape) any debris or excess stain deposits. The longer stains are left, the harder they are to remove.
3. Apply Goop-o-matic 3000 via a cloth or by spray. Do not over-wet. Gently blot the stain. Never rub. Agitate gently. Stubborn stains may require further light agitation.
4. For heavy stains and spots, leave for 2-5 minutes of dwell time.
5. Blot spot from the outside in. Use a disposable wipe, clean white towel or extract with a machine.
6. Rinse and extract with a portable carpet cleaning machine using a pre-spray detergent. Plush (Carpet and upholstery rinse, softener & cleaner) should always be added to the solution tank water. If a machine is unavailable you can blot away with a damp clean white towel and then neutralise with Houdini stain remover or Aussie Encappa. Blot away again with another damp white towel to remove all chemical and stain residue.
7. Allow to dry.
8. Repeat or adjust the process if necessary.
*Always use the appropriate XO2 labelled product bottle.
Upholstery pre-treatment (bottle use)
Finely mist onto heavily soiled areas of upholstery followed by your normal upholstery cleaning procedure.
Laundry stain remover (bottle use)
Use undiluted. Spray directly onto stained areas. Scrub stubborn stains. Allow 10-30 minutes dwell time then follow normal laundering procedures.
Handy tips
• Attend to spots and spills as soon as possible. Fresh spots are significantly easier to remove. Stains that are left too long can become permanent. Using the wrong product can also set the stain or permanently damage the fibre.
• Do your stain removal working from the outside of larger stains to the inside. This prevents the stain from spreading.
• 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.
What do I do if a carpet stain reappears after successfully removing it?
Reappearing stains are usually caused when chemical residue or excessive moisture is left deep in the fibre after cleaning and rinsing. As the fibre dries the staining from the backing and bottom of the fibre travels up. This can be resolved by using less stain remover, using less water, increasing the amount of moisture you extract, improving the drying process and conditions, using Plush rinse in your clean water tank and making sure you always extract after using a wet solvent spotter. If you have this problem we also recommend that after recleaning you use Browning & Watermark Remover by spraying it on, raking or brushing it in and leaving it to dry.
Will Goop-o-matic 3000 remove every stain?
No. There is not one product that removes all carpet stains. This product is part of a complete professional stain removal system. It is important to familiarise yourself with the different products and how each of them works for the best result.
My stain won't come out. What should I do?
Oh Ohhh! Here are 2 options...
1. The stain is permanent damage and repair or replacement is required. Not all stains can be removed.
2. Progress to the next level of stain removal. See the 'how to remove carpet stains’ charts. In them, you’ll learn how specialty stain removers such as Houdini, Dry Safe, Wizz King and Browning Treatment work together for the best result.
