HAND / UPHOLSTERY TOOL
Complete with 2.4 metre hose, this lightweight
cleaning tool is designed for extraction cleaning
stair carpeting, edges, small rugs and inaccessible

agent. This tool can also be used for extraction
cleaning of upholstery fabrics, subject to pre-testing
of fabric and suitability of water-based cleaning.
VACUUM & SOLUTION EXTENSION HOSE
A 3 metre extension hose assembly for use with the
upholstery tool when cleaning stairs and difficult to
reach areas.
CHEMICALS
Prochem specialise in manufacturing chemical
products for the soft furnishing cleaning industry,
including carpets, floor coverings, upholstery fabrics
and curtains. This section refers only to the basic
Prochem chemicals for general on-site carpet
cleaning using the hot water extraction method.
S775 EXTRACTION PLUS
A wide use carpet cleaning formula containing a
high concentration of non-resoiling detergents,
builders and brighteners for effective cleaning of
synthetic and natural fibre carpets. S775 has an
approximate pH of 8.5 and should be diluted with
hot water at the rate of 10 ml. per litre (1 to 100).
S709 MULTI PRO
A concentrated pre-spotter and traffic lane cleaner
for treating spots, stains and heavily soiled traffic
areas prior to extraction cleaning. Dilute with warm
water at 1 - 4 to 1 - 8 and apply by sprayer. For
best results, brush into pile using Prochem carpet
Fivestar & Comet Manual 1/7/15
pile brush before following up with extraction
cleaning process. S709 has a diluted pH of 10.5,
therefore always pre-test fibres for colour fastness
before use.
B109 FIBRE & FABRIC RINSE
A mild acidic concentrate for use as a rinse to
restore correct pH to the fibre. B109 will help to
stabilise fugitive dyes and reduce the possibility of
'jute browning' caused by over-wetting or the use of
alkaline cleaning solutions. B109 can be used in
place of S775 in the extraction machine solution
tank, or applied by sprayer after cleaning. Dilute 10
ml. per litre of warm water through your machine.
B109 is normally only used when a dye test
suggests the possibility of dye bleed or on light
coloured carpets when JUTE is part of the
construction and may cause BROWNING.
S760 LIQUID DEFOAMER
Always use S760 especially when foam problems
from soapy residue left from previous shampoo
cleaning are encountered. Mix 20 ml. of S760 with
500ml of cold water and add to vacuum hose and
recovery tank. As you drain off to empty the
recovered soiled solution, you simply add more
S760 as necessary. Remember, it is only
necessary to add S760 when extraction cleaning
previously shampooed carpets, so always check the
recovery tank for foam at the start of each job.
