ACTICHEM Rust Remover - 500mL

ACTICHEM Rust Remover - Carpet & Fabric Rust Spotter - 500mL

ACTICHEM Rust Remover is a specialized solution for removing rust spots from carpets and fabrics. It features a "safe-chemical" formula that provides an effective alternative to the traditional use of highly corrosive chemicals like Hydrofluoric Acid. This professionally researched formula is classified as non-hazardous, enhancing user safety during application. A key component of the formulation is a special blend of wetting and penetrating agents, which enable the solution to quickly and deeply penetrate into the core of each fibre. This ensures that the stain is treated thoroughly for effective removal. In addition to rust, this product's chemistry is also effective for removing old, dried blood spots. As with any spotting agent, it is essential to pre-test for colour stability on an inconspicuous area, especially on fine fabrics.

Key Features & Benefits

• Safer Chemistry: Provides effective rust removal without the high hazards associated with traditional hydrofluoric and hydrochloric acids.
• Deep Penetrating Action: Super-wetting agents ensure the formula penetrates deep into the fibre for thorough and effective stain removal.
• Dual Purpose: In addition to rust spots, its innovative chemistry is also effective at removing old, dried blood spots.
• Fibre Safe: Suitable for use on all natural and synthetic fibres (pre-testing on fine fabrics is recommended).

Directions for Use

Always read the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) before use. Pre-test on an inconspicuous location for colour stability.

2. Agitate the solution gently into the fibres using an upholstery cleaning brush.
