AIRX 81 is a specially formulated rug prespray to loosen soil and stains prior to extraction or deep steam cleaning with AIRX 80 carpet cleaner. Like its companion product, AIRX 81 contains Airicide™, a unique odor neutralizing additive that stops odors and prevents “mustiness” after cleaning. AIRX 81 can be used as an occasional spotter too, for those accidental spills and stains that occur in between cleanings.
AIRX 81 contains special alkaline builders selected for their mild yet effective dirt dissolving action. Wetting agents and penetrants promote a deep-down soil loosening and suspension that leaves an easy job for the extraction unit. Heavy traffic areas in hallways, around doors and entrances, desks, and in food service areas are ideal locations for the use of AIRX 81. AIRX 81 was designed to be compatible with and enhance the action of AIRX 80.
- Features
- Mild - AIRX 81 contains no harsh alkali to damage carpet fiber.
- Penetrating - Greasy residues are most difficult to remove from fabric. They also tend to hold other soils to the fiber. AIRX 81 penetrates and releases the grease promoting easier soil removal.
- Optical Brightener - A specially selected optical brightener helps promote a “renewed” appearance. AIRICIDE - AIRX Airicide is a true odor counteractant. It eliminates odors by changing the odor molecules rather than masking with heavy perfumes. Leaves behind a fresh odor which remains for several days.
- Economical - Many spotter solutions are composed of expensive chlorinated hydrocarbons or solvents. In addition to being costly, they are odorous and, in some cases, toxic. AIRX 81 provides a low cost and safe solution to cleanup of soiled carpet areas.
