Ashbys Stain Remover Plus – 5 Ltr PC6235
Professional Stain Remover & Pre‑Treatment for Carpet, Upholstery & Rug Cleaners
Ashbys Stain Remover Plus is a powerful, ready‑to‑use stain remover made in the UK, trusted by professional carpet, upholstery and rug cleaners nationwide. It excels on water‑based, solvent‑based and oil‑based stains, making it one of the most versatile stain removal solutions in a technician’s kit.
Professional cleaners commonly use it as their first‑line treatment, as it removes around 70–80% of appropriate stains in typical daily use. This makes it an indispensable and highly economical tool for professional cleaners — removing more stains upfront and reducing the need for specialist spotters.
Its strong cleaning action also makes it an exceptional pre‑treatment for heavily soiled wet‑cleanable upholstery, cutting through hand grease, hair oils and ingrained dirt with ease. In addition, Stain Remover Plus is a proven finished‑leather cleaner for technicians who need reliable performance on tough, high‑use areas.
For best results, professionals shake the container to mix, then decant into a high‑performance sprayer such as the Kwazar Mercury Pro Double‑Action Pump Sprayer (1 Ltr) for fast, even application.

Directions

Decant into a suitable sprayer for carpet and stain removal work, or into a bowl for hand‑cleaning finished leather or fabrics.

Pre‑test for colour‑fastness and follow manufacturer guidance where possible.
Stain Removal (Carpets, Rugs & Upholstery)
-
Ready to use. Do not dilute.
-
Spray evenly onto the stained area until uniformly damp.
-
Extract thoroughly using a carpet cleaning machine or clean absorbent towelling.
-
Work towards the centre of the stain.
-
Repeat if required until no further improvement is visible.
-
Avoid over‑wetting rubber or bitumen‑backed carpets.
-
Do not scrub abrasively — work in vertical and horizontal motions only.
Leather Cleaning (Finished Leather Only)
-
Pre‑vacuum the leather surface.
-
Immerse a natural sponge into the solution and squeeze out excess fluid.
-
Clean small areas using circular motions, regularly rinsing the sponge and removing soil with white terry towelling.
-
Focus on high‑use areas and folds where soil builds up.
-
Check for colour transfer — stop immediately if colour appears on your towelling.
-
Treat leather afterwards with Leatherguard Leather Conditioning Cream.
-
Caution: Some finished leathers are not colour‑fast and may only be suitable for vacuuming and dusting.
Fabric Cleaning
-
Apply as for leather, focusing on stains and grease build‑up.
-
Avoid hard rubbing and do not over‑wet.
-
Never spot clean only — wet the entire panel to prevent water marking.
