{"product_id":"sonitron-fiberinse-5l","title":"Sonitron Fiberinse 5L","description":"\u003cp\u003eSonitron Fiberinse is a mild acid rinse, sometimes called a sour, for carpet and upholstery cleaning. Sonitron states that it improves the feel of some carpets by removing the mineral residues left by hard water, neutralises alkaline residues and prevents browning, and is highly concentrated for economy in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Use an Acid Rinse?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost presprays are alkaline. Rinsing with plain water leaves some of that alkalinity in the fibre, where it attracts soil, stiffens the pile and raises the risk of browning as the carpet dries. A mild acid rinse through the extraction machine brings the fibre back towards neutral as it flushes the prespray out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat It Is For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtraction rinse after an alkaline prespray\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHard-water areas, where mineral residue leaves carpet feeling harsh\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReducing the risk of browning on carpet and upholstery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDirections for Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSonitron does not publish dilution rates for Fiberinse on its website.
