Dry Force Group - Dry Carpet Cleaning Prespray ConcentrateLike everything else in the world today, Dry Carpet Cleaning is on the move! And it’s really important as professional carpet cleaners to keep up with the latest product innovations and technology. If you don’t, you will simply fall behind whilst your competitors take over your clients!

Today we are going to look at Professional Dry Carpet Cleaning, AKA…  ’Low Moisture Cleaning.’ And in particular we are going to run through the 1,2,3′s of the vacuum, spray and machine bonnet absorb method (not so much encapsulation, however, as you’ll read there are similiarities in chemistry). Basically, the way we are cleaning carpets for our clients is by absorbing soils, dirt and chemical up into a highly absorbent bonnet under a machine.

So straight up, it’s important to know and be able to communicate to clients that dry carpet cleaning is not the be all and end all of carpet cleaning. After reading this article, it is our goal that you understand when and where you should use the dry carpet cleaning method as well as how to do it professionally to exceed your clients expectations.

Oil Stains On Concrete? No Worries Mate!

TKO High Alkaline Heavy Duty Cleaner GroupTKO (Technical Knockout) is a massive breakthrough in Extreme Hard Surface Cleaning. It clearly outperforms other heavy duty floor cleaning chemicals in its class, exceeds expectations and even does the impossible!

When Chris put the design to Total’s Wizz Chemist, we call him (Brains), he was challenged and motivated to come up with a clear winner. Eventually, close to field testing he had the breakthrough we were after. A brand new technology raw material, called “If I told you, I would have to kill you!” So when it came to field trials, we already knew we were on a winner. ‘Brains’ gave it a shot for himself on some old oil/grease stains on some concrete at his home. It nailed it, everything else (cleaning solvents & heavy duty degreasers) would only lighten it.

Field trials didn’t last long, TKO was just clearly better than everything else. The reports from the field testers flooded in, all positive! And no-one wanted to buy any of the old stuff off us anymore, when can I have TKO?!

Since then, it has wiped out the need for any of our high alkaline extreme hard surface cleaning chemicals and specialty oil removing chemicals. Even some famous formulas from way back when! It’s just TKO sales now, nothing else.

So what can TKO do for you? Well TKO is an Extreme Hard Surface Cleaning chemical used for shock treatments and oil/grease removal. It’s not for daily maintenance, it’s for sorting your problems out! So click here to check this amazing, mind blowing product out now! TKO Extreme Heavy Duty Cleaner Concentrate

P.S. Handy Tips for oil removal from concrete. Shhhhhhh!

1) Remove excess surface oil/grease with absorbant material (toweling.)

2) Wet the stain with hot water to open the pores.

3) Apply TKO extreme heavy duty cleaner undiluted onto the wetted stain. Scrub in with doodle bug and black scourer or deck scrub brush.

4) Let it Dwell for 5 minutes.

5) Agitate again with scourer or deck scrub brush.

6) Rinse thoroughly with hot water. Bingo!
