Shortly after Dupont introduced Stainmaster many years ago we got word of new cleaning recommendations. Only use detergents with a ph less than 10 on stain resistant fibers. High ph could "compromise" the factory stain resistant treatment.
At first it was, "Oh yeah, we gotta use the lower ph, I don't want to be responsible for ruining a customer's carpet." After seeing no negative effects from ph, I gotta admit, I have not worried with the less than 10 ph thing for many years.
I am curious, how many here still use only "stain resist approved" products for SR carpets? Also, has anyone ever had a ph related problem or claim because of using too high a ph?
