Red Relief®
2-part system
for removing
food and drink stains

from Pro’s Choice and Bane-Clene®

Red Relief on Kool-Aid stain    Red Relief is a two-part system formulated especially for removing food and drink stains such as Kool-Aid®, fruit punch, candy, cough syrup, Gatorade®, and other products containing food and beverage dyes.

   Red Relief is also effective on other stains such as iodine, Betadine®, Play-Doh®, and lipstick. The system combines two powerful stain-removing solutions that attack food dyes and other stains, breaking them down for easy removal during extraction. Part “A” contains wetting agents and reducing bleach. Solution “B” contains wetting agents, solvent, and water softener.

   We strongly suggest that you practice on some carpet scraps to develop the technique before using the product and technique on a customer’s carpet.

   With a pH of 6.0, Red Relief will not void the warranty of stain resistant nylon carpets.

Directions:

  1. Extraction clean (preferably with water) the spot to remove all surface contamination.
  2. Blot the spot as dry as possible with a dry white clean towel.
  3. Mix equal parts of Solution A and Solution B in a clean container.
  4. Apply the mixed solution to the stain liberally to wet all the stained fibers.
  5. Prepare a damp towel and wring out until moderately damp.
  6. Cover the stain with the damp towel.
  7. Apply steam heat to the towel for 1 - 3 minutes, using a steam iron filled with water and set at the lowest setting.
  8. DO NOT SET IRON DIRECTLY ON CARPET!
  9. Because of its low melting point, do not use an iron on olefin.
  10. Apply the iron directly over the towel covering the stain. Check the stain once every minute.
  11. When the stain disappears or changes to a light yellow, discontinue heat and remove the iron and the towel.
  12. Be alert for fibers that are not colorfast - if you see color loss, discontinue the heat immediately!
  13. Extraction rinse the treated area to remove any residue and dry thoroughly.

    14. If a heavy spill, use Stain Blotter to prevent wicking.
  14. IMPORTANT: Red Relief is not self-neutralizing and MUST be rinsed from carpet after treatment. Always test an inconspicuous area before using.

Use pH: 6.0

Shelf-life unmixed: 1 year.

CAUTION: Removal of some of the carpet dye is always possible in this type of system!
