Actichem Rust Remover is a “safe-chemical” formula for removing rust spots on carpets and fibres. It replaces the traditional use of Hydrofluoric Acid, which has a high hazard profile and is extremely corrosive. This professionally researched formula includes a special blend of wetting agents, which enables fast and efficient chemical action on deep-set spots.
Benefits
- Safer Innovative Chemistry – Rust Remover provides a safer alternative to Hydrofluoric and Hydrochloric Acids whilst still providing outstanding rust removal.
- Dynamic Penetration Feature – The inclusion of super-wetting and penetrating agents ensures that Rust Remover quickly and effectively penetrates each discoloured fibre. This feature means that each discoloured fibre is treated not just on the outside, but the Rust Remover penetrates deep into the fibre for effective and permanent stain removal.
- Blood Removal – Rust Remover’s innovative chemistry is also very effective for removing old, dried blood spots. Pretesting is always required.
- Fibre Safe – Rust Remover is safe for use on all natural and synthetic fibres; however, fine fabrics must be pre-tested for colour stability before use.
- User Friendly – Specialty low odour formula ensures user comfort.
