Bridgepoint Wool Perfect and Wool Zone

[Johnny]

Anybody have experience with Bridgepoint Wool Perfect and Wool Zone? Got a jug of each to try on wool carpet tomorrow. Some dog urine deposits. What additives, if any, would you use?

Much obliged.

Installed wall to wall or cheap-o tufted I am not that cautious to use a dedicated product.

Long story short...I got nothin' for ya.

Pre spray the urine as soon as you get there with 20 volume


Lots of dwell time

Bridgepoint Pet Zone and/or Hydrocide. Pet Zone is not really indicated for wool but I don't think it will cause any problems on wool broadloom, (use caution on area rugs) mix into a watering can and water the stains enough to wet the pad. (not so much it goes through the floor) Let dwell for 1/2 hour and rinse out with a water claw. When the water claw is down, pour more acidic cleaning solution around it. Maybe a gallon. Extract well and you're done.

Wool Medic is specifically made to be safe for wool. It breaks down salts and protein in urien and other organic materials. A presoak with Wool Medic will make urine much easier to remove from wool and natural fibers with no damage to the wool.

Strong oxidizers like peroxide can harm woolfiber and make it more brittle.

Be aware that as urine breaks down it forms ammonia which has a very high pH. The presence of this high pH can damage dyes and harm wool. There may be pre-existing damage from the urine. Inspect carefully so you don't make it your problem.

Wool Medic helps to stabilize any fugitive dyes.

If left behind..


Robert Mann uses 40 vol in his rug plant at the same rate that Jimmy uses Purell hand cleaner when out in public.

Robert Mann can use what he wants since his vast experience and knowledge of rugs gives him insight no one else has and he has all of the state of the art equipment to quickly rinse any chemical he chooses to use. I visited his plant a few years ago and saw a few chemicals which would have created some issues for other washers without his experience and equipment. Peroxide over 3% (not volume) can be problematic. Our Stain Zone under 10% (not volume), not recommended for wool, chemically burned a hole in a wool rug. Use Wool Medic, and flush thoroughly with a Water Claw. A post spray of Hydrocide or an injection into the backing of Bio Modifier Xtreme should deal with the urine contaminants and odor. Any remaining stain is where I would patiently use hydrogen peroxide at 3%.

Wool rug = In plant, control of chemistry, thorough rinsing, expert on site, customer out of sight and horrible developments can be remedied without their knowledge that they ever happened.

Wool carpet = Installed in the home/business. absorbs chemistry, difficult to rinse, technician gone after the job, customer right there watching disasters unfold before they can be fixed.
