User questions & answers

Question:	Does this carpet shampoo encapsulate dirt and dry to vacuum up later like professional carpet cleaners may use
Answer:	The Red bottle is a Pre-Treat to use on stains and high traffic areas. The blue bottle is a decent carpet extractor shampoo for general carpet cleaning.
Question:	What’s the difference between the high traffic and commercial
Answer:	I have not used it ,amazon refuse to take it back. I ordered by mistake
Question:	does this work on very dirty carpet? is it difficult to use
Answer:	IMO I'd do at least 1 part to 4 parts water. It was waaayy too concentrated when applied during spot cleaning without diluting first. Bleached the color out and I could never get the soapyness out.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this for 4 gallons
Answer:	It's just carpet shampoo, I don't see why not. Berber is still the same carpet fibers only looped. The lemongrass smells wonderful plus it's pretty good on stains, although I still have to go over it a few times on my toddlers stains, but it's less than with other shampoos
Question:	What does this cleaner smell like
Answer:	I would not attempt to use on suede. It might leave a water stain on it. That might be worse than the original stain.
Question:	Is this good for removing pet urine
Answer:	This stuff is wonderful. I have a cat and he throws up, I just spay this stuff on and let it SIT for a few minutes, wipe it up and smell and color of the yuck disappear like magic. He had diarrhea once and it removed it like nothing happened. The key is to let it sit on stain for a few seconds before wiping up. I Always make sure I have it on hand. Good luck
Question:	How is this for eliminating odors
Answer:	No avoid use on “S “and “WS” code fabrics, including leather, silk, suede, and wool.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does it disinfect
Answer:	Try using Zero Odor. It is sold by Amazon and is the best odor remover I have ever tried. It also removes pet stains. My son-in-law recommended it to me and he was absolutely right! Here is the Amazon URL: https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_4_9?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=zero+odor+pet+odor+eliminator&sprefix=Zero+Odor%2Caps%2C146&crid=2H8L527VKOA2S Recently I have found another Zero Odor product that will remove odor from washable items in the washing machine. It really works, too. Just 4 squirts added with liquid laundry detergent when running a load of stinky laundry.
Question:	Can this be used in a hoover carpet cleaning machine? does anything special need to be done to make it work
Answer:	Honestly, I have only used it on light colors. I would trust it on my red chair for sure. Just remember to blot it after you spray it. That’s the trick. Spray the product on the stain and then use a paper towel to blot the wet edges of the area you sprayed (so you’re actually blotting the spray itself). That prevents a mark left by the stain remover.
Question:	I can't tell from the label - is this for use in an extraction carpet cleaner? Thanks
Answer:	To be honest, I'm not 100% sure. I have used it on whites, beiges, and light colors but never on dark colors. There were no issues with the fabrics I used it on. Sorry I can't be more helpful.
Question:	The jug that arrived says "high traffic carpet spot" and does not mention a carpet shampooer, is this the same as the listing
Answer:	Yes. The carpet may be pretreated with the Zep High Traffic Carpet Cleaner prior to shampooing. Apply the Zep High Traffic Carpet Cleaner directly to stain and allow it to penetrate the stain for several hours. Use a clean damp cloth to blot. I hope this information is of help.

User questions & answers

Question:	When used to deodorize clothing in laundry, how much do you use for each load and do you pour in wash cycle or rinse cycle ? Thanks
Answer:	In wash cycle add 1/2 cup. Is usually all that is needed. If clothes are clean but still smell like body oil then add 1/2 cup of sodium tetra borate (borax) . Don - retired chemist
Question:	Can this be used on hardwood flooring? I have red oak floors
Answer:	Yes. I have 115 year old dark pine wood floors. Plus an 8 month old male kitten marking his territory. Nasty urine smell. Beyond nasty. ZEP pulls the smell right out of the old wood. & yes, he's scheduled 4 neutering.
Question:	I see this product isnt recommened for carpet cleaners but reviews have been left when it is used on carpet. Any suggested info for carpets
Answer:	People are leaving reviews for a variety of this brands products-an all purpose cleaner, a carpet shampoo, odor remover...I have no idea why Amazon has this setup option at all, in my opinion it sucks, but the reviewers are commenting on their purchases and don’t mean to confuse anyone. Read the info between the reviewers names and their reviews, sometimes it will show what product they bought.
Question:	Does it work for urine stains on carpet
Answer:	Not sure about that. I would say pre-treat with a carpet stain remover first. The odor control definitely removes odors though. So glad I found it!

User questions & answers

Question:	Can this be used on a suede couch
Answer:	I use this shampoo often, as I have about 80% white in my dark hair. It brightens the grey, leaving it silvery white - but not purple in anyway. It's a good product and with a lengthened application, I can notice better tone to my entire head of hair.
Question:	Can you use this product on wool carpet
Answer:	Lots! It's very concentrated, foams up beautifully, you really don't need much, and you only have to use it once a week. The bottle may not be large, but I would say at least 10-15 applications. It works brilliantly at toning down the brassy highlights my new hairdresser left me with, I highly recommend this product, it is far superior to the Jhirmack Distinctions Silver Plus I had been using.
Question:	pet stain and odor remover
Answer:	I suspect that natural, dirty blonde hair could look even darker, perhaps dirtier after use of any purple shampoo. You may want to look for recipes of camomile treatment, but don't expect more than a nuance of a lighter shade. Anything else, other than professional services, may end up giving brassy results.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can this product remove coffee stain on fabric car seats
Answer:	there are 4 or 5 in the package in physical size they are the same size as the original approximately 5 and one half inch by 9 inches
Question:	Can it be used on type s fabric
Answer:	They last as long as you can stand to look at all of the dead bugs on them--or I suppose until they get too dusty to be sticky anymore. The night light in the holder does an excellent job of attracting fleas, gnats and the occasional spider looking for an easy meal.
Question:	Does this remove Ink
Answer:	Absolutely no odor. The sticky paper is just that -- sticky paper the traps the insects when the draw near the light. I've used these for years and had a friend who had a bad flea infestation in her home. Being a mom of two she was reluctant to use harsh chemicals but the diatomaceous earth wasn't doing the trick. She bought these and it solved her problem in no time.
