Agar Bonnet Cleaner 5L

AGAR BONNET CLEANER 5L

Bonnet Cleaner is a premium liquid detergent specifically designed for cleaning all types of carpet using the rotary bonnet method. It effectively releases soil from carpet fibers so that it can be absorbed by the bonnet, making it suitable for lightly to moderately soiled carpets.

• Fast Reacting: Quickly releases soil from carpet fibers.
• Free-Rinsing: Leaves minimal residues on the carpet.
• Fast-Drying: Carpets typically return to service within one hour after cleaning.
• Standards Compliance: Complies with Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 3733 for carpet cleaning systems.
• Suitability: Ideal for lightly to moderately soiled carpets; heavily soiled areas should be cleaned using hot-water extraction.
• For Use On: Suitable for all types of carpets.

Application Instructions:

1. Pre-Cleaning:
   • Vacuum the carpet to remove solid soilage.
2. Dilution:
   • Dilute 1 part Bonnet Cleaner to 8 parts hot water.
   • Pre-test the solution on an inconspicuous area to ensure the carpet is color-fast.
3. Application Methods:
   • Option A: Pre-spray a clean, dry bonnet with the solution.
   • Option B: Pre-spray the carpet with the solution (only spray a 6m x 6m area at a time).
   • Option C: Soak the bonnet in the solution, then squeeze out excess moisture. Ensure the bonnet is damp, not dripping wet, to avoid over-wetting the carpet and splashing skirting boards.
4. Cleaning:
   • Fit the bonnet to a slow-speed rotary machine (150 to 300 rpm).
   • Scrub the carpet from side to side, working in 2-meter square blocks.
   • Keep the bonnet damp but avoid over-wetting the carpet.
   • Replace or clean the bonnet when it becomes soiled.
5. Finishing:
   • Clean around furniture and edges using a hand method.
   • Rake the pile when finished.
   • Avoid placing furniture on wet carpet to prevent stains.
   • Wash and air-dry the bonnets after use.

Tips for Bonnet Cleaning:

• Avoid Dry Bonnet Buffing: This can damage the carpet.
• Clean Bonnet: Start with a clean bonnet for maximum soil absorption.
• Avoid ‘Heeling’ the Machine: This can damage the carpet.
• Caution with Carpet Types: Be careful with cut-pile and coarse loop-pile carpets to prevent pile distortion from the rotary action.
