Directions
- Identify the stain type (for example food, beverage, blood, oil, adhesive, paint, gum, nail polish, ink) and refer to the Prochem stain removal guide and individual product labels to select the appropriate spotter.
- Pre‑test the chosen product on an inconspicuous area of the carpet, fabric or hard surface to check for colour fastness and fibre or surface compatibility.
- Follow the label instructions for each chemical: apply using the supplied trigger sprayer or a white towel as directed, using only enough product to treat the spot.
- Allow the recommended contact time, then use the appropriate accessory (such as white terry towel, spotting brush, chewing gum perforator or bone scraper) to lift softened residues and blot the stain. Do not rub.
- Work from the outside towards the centre of larger spots to avoid spreading the stain.
- Rinse and extract where specified on the product label to remove residues and minimise ring marks.
- Refer back to the stain removal guide for multi‑step treatments (for example rust, dye or complex combination stains).
- Note: Some stains may be permanent and cannot be fully removed.

- Ignoring pre‑testing on sensitive fibres or surfaces.
- Over‑applying chemicals instead of using controlled amounts.
- Rubbing stains aggressively, which can damage fibres and spread contamination.
- Failing to rinse and extract when required, leading to residues and ring marks.
- Not using PPE when working with stronger solvents or oxidising agents.
- Leaving foil furniture pads or accessories in place without checking for movement or moisture.
