Research Products Grease Release 1L – Carpet Extraction Chemicals

Execute rapid, highly effective spot detailing and completely eradicate the most stubborn, sticky contaminants from sensitive textiles with the formidable Research Products Grease Release (Ink & Paint Remover). In the demanding commercial carpet cleaning, dry cleaning, and hospitality sectors, standard water-based detergents are entirely ineffective against heavy oil, wet paint, sticky chewing gum, and permanent marker. Attempting to extract these severe, tar-like stains with a standard wand only spreads the grease deeper into the fibers. This professional-grade commercial carpet extractor pre-treatment provides the ultimate, high-potency solvent solution. Engineered as a highly aggressive, ready-to-use spotter, it actively softens and liquefies hardened adhesives and heavy industrial grease, allowing the contaminant to be safely scraped free or extracted.

Designed for absolute worksite productivity and unparalleled stain penetration, Grease Release functions flawlessly as a multi-purpose dry solvent. It acts incredibly fast, drastically reducing the exhausting manual labor and valuable operational time wasted on scrubbing localized spots prior to executing a full hot water extraction. Formulated as a clear, colorless liquid, it is exceptionally versatile; capable of tackling severe stains on commercial carpets, heavy upholstery, and industrial workwear clothing prior to laundering. By deploying these premium carpet extraction chemicals and commercial cleaning supplies, professional technicians and commercial laundries can guarantee a flawless, visually restored presentation, effortlessly overcoming the toughest industrial cleaning jobs.

Who Is Research Products Grease Release Ideal For?

The Research Products Grease Release delivers a highly potent solvent formulation, ready-to-use convenience, and rapid adhesive softening. It is highly recommended for:

  • Professional Carpet Cleaners: Utilizing a highly robust, solvent-based carpet extraction chemical to pre-treat severe localized stains (like tar, chewing gum, and heavy grease tracks) prior to running a commercial hot water extraction wand over the carpet, ensuring the stain is completely liquefied.
  • Commercial Laundries & Dry Cleaners: Relying on the aggressive solvent action to execute heavy-duty spot removal. Staff can safely apply the chemical directly to the collars and cuffs of heavily soiled mechanic's workwear to melt industrial oil and printing ink before placing the garments in the washing machine.
  • Hospitality & Hotel Housekeeping: Taking absolute advantage of the fast-acting formula to rapidly remove stubborn lipstick, makeup, and heavy food oils from expensive hotel upholstery and dining chairs without spreading the stain further.
  • Facility OH&S Managers & Graffiti Removal: Deploying premium commercial cleaning supplies that double as a highly effective graffiti remover. The solvent effortlessly softens permanent marker and pen graffiti from hard, compatible surfaces, allowing staff to simply wipe the vandalism away.

Key Features and Performance Benefits:

  • High-Performance Solvent Action: The ultimate restoration advantage. The highly aggressive chemical specifically targets heavy, sticky, non-water-soluble contaminants. It physically melts and softens tar, latex adhesives, and chewing gum in seconds, allowing them to be scraped off the carpet pile smoothly.
  • Ready-to-Use Convenience: Maximizes worksite efficiency. The liquid is pre-mixed to the absolute optimal commercial concentration. Technicians do not need to measure or mix chemicals; they simply apply it neat directly from the bottle to the stain, saving critical operational time.
  • Multi-Fiber Compatibility: Reduces ongoing commercial overheads. This highly versatile formula eliminates the need to buy multiple specific spotters. It performs flawlessly on a wide range of synthetic commercial carpets, heavy upholstery fabrics, and durable workwear clothing.
  • Rapid Ink & Paint Removal: Delivers unyielding commercial performance. The solvent is specifically engineered to break the chemical bonds of stubborn printing inks, ballpoint pen, and wet paints, preventing the dyes from permanently setting into the textile fibers.
  • Enhances Extraction Results: Protects your facility's presentation. By liquefying the heavy grease first, the subsequent hot water extraction process is vastly more effective, completely eliminating the 'shadow' of the stain that often reappears days later.

Do I need to dilute this product with water?

Absolutely NOT. Grease Release is a 'Ready-to-Use' dry solvent. You must apply it 'Neat' (undiluted) directly onto the stain. Adding water will severely compromise the solvent's ability to melt grease and adhesives.

How do I use this on a severe carpet stain?

Apply the neat liquid directly to the stain. Using a clean white towel, carefully blot the area, working from the outside edge of the stain towards the center (to prevent the grease from spreading). Once the stain is absorbed, extract the remaining residue with your carpet machine.

Will this remove dried, hard paint?

It is highly effective at dissolving most wet paints and some soft, semi-cured paints. However, if thick acrylic or oil-based enamel paint has completely cured and hardened into the carpet fibers for years, it may be permanently bonded.

How do I remove chewing gum with this product?

Apply Grease Release generously directly onto the hardened gum. Allow it to 'dwell' for a few minutes. The solvent will chemically soften the latex base of the gum, allowing you to easily scrape it out of the carpet fibers with a blunt spatula.

Can I use this product as a graffiti remover?

Yes! For permanent marker or pen graffiti on hard surfaces, apply the neat solvent, immediately agitate the area with a cloth or soft brush, and wipe it off. Always test a hidden area first, as aggressive solvents can melt some soft plastics and paints.

How do I use it on mechanic's workwear clothing?

Before laundering the garment, apply Grease Release directly to the heavy grease, ink stains, and dirty collars or cuffs. Let it soak into the fibers for a few minutes to break the oil bond, and then place the garment in the washing machine and wash normally.

Is this safe to use on delicate natural wool carpets?

You must use extreme caution. While it is safe for most synthetic commercial carpets, aggressive dry solvents can damage certain delicate natural fibers or cause carpet dyes to bleed. You MUST always test for fiber and color compatibility in an inconspicuous corner first.

Is this product highly flammable?

YES. Grease Release is officially classified as a 'Class 3 Flammable Liquid' (UN 1993). It must be kept strictly away from open flames, smoking materials, sparks, and extreme heat sources at all times during application and storage.

Does it have a strong chemical smell?

Yes. Because it is a heavy-duty dry solvent, it has a very strong, distinct solvent odor. It MUST ONLY be used in highly ventilated areas, and the room should be aired out thoroughly after the extraction is complete.

Should I wear gloves when using this?

YES. Because it is an industrial-strength solvent designed to melt thick oil, it will severely strip the natural oils from your skin, causing painful cracking and dermatitis. You must wear thick, chemical-resistant nitrile gloves during application.

Can I pour this into the tank of my carpet extraction machine?

Absolutely NOT. This is a targeted 'Spot Treatment' solvent. You must never pour pure, highly flammable solvents into the plastic solution tanks or rubber hoses of an expensive extraction machine, as it will instantly melt the internal seals and create a severe fire hazard.

Do you offer trade pricing for commercial carpet cleaners?

Yes, Freshway Supplies provides highly competitive volume pricing and trade accounts for professional carpet cleaning technicians, commercial laundries, and facility managers ordering bulk extraction chemicals. Contact us to establish your account.
