Birchmeier Foam-Matic / Foamatic 1.25 E Pump-up Foaming Sprayer
Birchmeire Foam-Matic 1.25E is the perfect foaming pump-up sprayer for applying shampoo pre-treatments when professionally cleaning upholstery. The Foam-Matic keeps the foamed chemical on the surface of the material being cleaned, rather than allowing it to penetrate in to the stuffing .
Also, ideal for applying foamable cleaning agents to vertical surfaces and alloy wheels, providing an extended dwell time to achieve the best results from your cleaning product.
Use for low-moisture upholstery & mattress cleaning
Using the Foam-Matic pump-up sprayer to foam apply your pre-treatment, it’s easy to see the areas you’ve covered as the foam sits on the surface of the upholstery, without penetrating in to the filling of the cushion. This keeps the pre-treatment on the surface for longer giving so you get maximum cleaning performance from your pre-treatment.
The Foam-Matic is ideal for use with Ashbys Supreme Shampoo. Ashbys Supreme Shampoo is alcohol based to speed up drying times and low pH to be safe on sensitive fibres.
