You apply the diluted solution, scrub it in with a machine or pad, and let it dry. As it dries, the detergent forms a brittle crystal around the loosened soil, and routine vacuuming removes it. No rinse is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is not a restorative clean. Encap cleaning keeps a carpet on a maintenance schedule between hot water extraction cleans. Heavily soiled, greasy or long-neglected carpet usually needs extraction first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFast Cleaning Production Rates\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for commercial carpet maintenance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeep penetrating cleaning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDries to a crystallised residue.
