Re: Carpet Cleaners

Sounds like a pretty good product. Anyone have any experience with it?

Here's the FAQ from their website:

What makes FOLEX different from other spot and stain removers?
FOLEX has been formulated specifically to remove virtually any spot and stain from any colorfast carpet or material that can be safely dampened with water. FOLEX achieves these amazing results without using solvents or other hazardous chemicals.


Will FOLEX attract dirt back to the cleaned area?
No. FOLEX is Non-Ionic (it has neither a positive or negative electrical charge) so FOLEX will not attract dust or dirt back to the cleaned area. And because FOLEX does not contain oily solvents, or leave a soapy residue, the spots will not come back.


Will FOLEX remove old stains?
Yes. As long as the stains have not dyed or bleached the carpet or material.


Will FOLEX remove the factory applied stain resistant treatment from my carpet?
No. Because FOLEX contains no petroleum distillates, or other organic solvents, it will not remove stain resistant chemicals properly applied at the time of manufacture.


What carpets or materials should FOLEX not be used on?
FOLEX should not be used on any carpet or material that could be damaged by water. You should always test a hidden area of a carpet or material for color fastness and color stability with FOLEX, before using FOLEX on a visible area.


What spots or stains will FOLEX not completely remove?
If the carpet or material has been Dyed, FOLEX can help by removing the excess dyeing substance from the carpet or material, but it will not change the color back. For example, some red drinks, yellow mustard, and hair dye, (if left on too long) will permanently change the color of the carpet or material. The key is to get to these types of stains as quickly as possible, so that FOLEX can remove them before they permanently change the color of the carpet or material.


Will my children and pets be safe playing in areas cleaned with FOLEX?
Yes. FOLEX is non-toxic, completely non-irritating to normal skin, requires no ventilation, and will not break down into dangerous byproducts.
