For Restoration
After time, you may want to treat your fl oor to some extra care. Residual detergents coating the
Flotex fi bres cause re-soiling, locking in dirt and odours, preventing Flotex Clean-It from working.

one side to reveal
bright clean carpet
i. Pour plain water
onto the darkest mark
ii. Scrub with a hard bristle
brush. Check for soap suds:
* Flotex Fix-It is a specially formulated to neutralise and de-foam residual detergents.

per above 'general cleaning'
