Product Description

Research Products Spitfire Lavender Carpet Pre-Spray (5L)

Achieve unparalleled commercial soil extraction with the Research Products Spitfire Lavender Carpet Pre-Spray (5L). Widely recognized as an industry benchmark, this professional-grade carpet cleaning detergent is specifically formulated for ultra-fast soil suspension prior to hot water extraction. Engineered to rapidly break down heavy traffic lane contamination, embedded grease, and severe commercial stains, it ensures that portable extractors and truck-mount machines can pull dirt from deep within the carpet pile with absolute efficiency.

What sets Spitfire Lavender apart is its advanced, AS/NZS 3733 compliant neutral pH formulation. While it delivers aggressive cleaning power on heavily soiled commercial carpets, it remains completely safe for delicate wool, wool blends, and stain-resistant synthetic fibers. Highly concentrated for exceptional commercial economy (diluting at up to 1:30), and leaving behind a consumer-preferred fresh lavender fragrance, this carpet pre-spray is the definitive chemical solution for professional carpet cleaners, disaster restoration teams, and hotel housekeeping staff demanding flawless, residue-free results.

Ideal For:

Professional Carpet Cleaners: Delivers ultra-fast soil breakdown on heavily contaminated traffic lanes, ensuring single-pass extraction efficiency with truck mounts or portable machines.
Hotel & Hospitality Venues: The neutral pH formula safely cleans delicate wool-blend foyer carpets, while the fresh lavender scent leaves the premises smelling highly professional.
Healthcare & Aged Care: Rapidly lifts biological soils and food spills without relying on highly caustic, high-pH chemicals that damage fibers over time.

Key Features & Operational Benefits:

Ultra-Fast Soil Suspension: Instantly penetrates and separates heavy grease and oily dirt from the carpet fibers, drastically reducing the required wand passes during extraction.
Wool-Safe Neutral pH: Fully compliant with AS/NZS 3733 standards, ensuring it will not burn, brown, or degrade delicate natural wool or stain-resistant nylons.
Free-Rinsing Formula: Washes out completely during the extraction phase, leaving zero sticky chemical residues that would otherwise cause rapid re-soiling.
Extreme Commercial Economy: Highly concentrated formula requires only a 1:30 dilution for medium soiling, providing massive coverage from a single 5L drum.
Consumer Preferred Fragrance: Infused with a panel-tested lavender scent that neutralizes damp carpet odors and leaves the room smelling exceptionally fresh.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a carpet 'Pre-Spray'?

A pre-spray is a concentrated detergent applied directly to the carpet using a pump-up sprayer before you use your carpet extraction machine. It sits on the carpet for 3-5 minutes, chemically breaking down the heavy grease and dirt so the extraction machine can easily wash it away.

Is Spitfire Lavender safe for wool carpets?

Yes, absolutely. It features a neutral pH formulation that is fully compliant with AS/NZS 3733 standards, making it completely safe for delicate wool, wool blends, and stain-resistant synthetic carpets.

How do I dilute this product?

Spitfire Lavender is highly concentrated. For medium commercial soiling, dilute it at 1:30 with water. For extremely heavy traffic lanes and severe grease, dilute it at 1:20.

Can I use hot water to mix it?

Yes. Mixing the pre-spray with warm or hot water (65°C–90°C) significantly accelerates the chemical reaction, improving the removal of oily and greasy soils from the carpet.

Do I put this chemical into the extraction machine's clean water tank?

No. Pre-sprays are designed to be sprayed directly onto the carpet via a separate pressure sprayer. Your extraction machine’s clean water tank should only contain clean water (or a dedicated acidic neutralizing rinse) to extract the dirt and the pre-spray out of the carpet.

Will this leave a sticky residue on the carpet?

No. Spitfire Lavender is explicitly engineered as a 'free-rinsing' formula. When extracted properly with water, it leaves no tacky residue behind, which prevents rapid re-soiling of the carpet.

How long should I let it sit on the carpet before extracting?

After spraying an even coat over the traffic lanes, allow a dwell time of 3 to 5 minutes. This gives the enzymes and surfactants time to dissolve the grease. Do not let the pre-spray dry out before extracting.

Does it have a strong chemical smell?

No. It features a highly rated, consumer-preferred Lavender fragrance. It masks the smell of damp carpet and leaves the room smelling fresh and clean for the client.

Can I use this as a spot stain remover?

Yes, it acts as an excellent standalone spotter. You can mix a stronger dilution in a small trigger bottle to treat isolated food spills and greasy spots before running the machine.

Is it safe for domestic residential cleaning?

Yes, while it is formulated for professional commercial extractors, contract cleaners frequently use it for high-end residential jobs because of its safety on wool and excellent scent.

Do you offer trade pricing for professional carpet cleaners?

Yes, Freshway Supplies provides volume pricing and trade accounts for carpet cleaning technicians, disaster restoration teams, and hotel facility managers. Contact us to establish your account.
