has anyone here actually used a uv light to accelerate stain removal? I have cti's but I don't remember which bulb to use. It came with 3. It's too fragile to carry on the truck.

DuPont actually did the first "disperse dye" stain removal using an oxidizer accelerated by a strong UV light.KevinL said:
We also used the process at a spotting contest in Wichita Falls last summer.
~18 Contestants tried to remove furniture polish, mustard and other difficult stains for donated cases of Chemspec products.
This is what the stained carpet looked like (furn.stain bottom right):
Here was a carpet cleaner using our UV light:
Here the bottom two were the winners who removed every stain with little distortion:
They both used the UV lights `5 min. to completely remove the dark furniture stain & mustard.

I have all the fancy stain removal products ... you know, the rust removers, stain magic and red relief, 20 volume hyd. perox., etc, etc.
But for everyday weird (unknown) spot removal, it is amazing how useful liquid Fels is.

I scrap up a handful of the bar on a cheese grater and mix it with super hot water from my TM. Put it in a 16 oz. spray bottle and VIOLA!

And if you grate enough of it and let it cool it gels up and you have a nice gel spotter to work with.
Much easier that the pain in the ass bar IMO.

Edit of my last post. I don't actually put it in a spray bottle. I doubt it would spray very well. I put it in an old Hel-Gel bottle with a squirt top.

A guy contacted me a few weeks back about having me try a "spotting bar" that sounded a lot like fels but had peroxide and enzymes in it as well.
He said it would be packaged in a deodorant type contain with a dial.
Said it was in the mail.
Never showed up.
Probably caused cancer when mistakenly used for BO...

I removed a red stain the other day using 20 volume and Fels. I didn't fool around with it any before putting the 20 volume on it, so it may have come out with just prespray, but it was old carpet, so I doubt it. Who knows?

the 40 vol/Fels combo works were all others fail IMO (but still not the Silver Bullet)
well maybe a heat transfer may work, but I wont take the risk anymore as I've been bit too many times trying to be a hero.

Where do you purchase your vol. 40? Sally's?
I make laundry soap with Fels by grating it and it's a great stain pre-treat as well. Love that stuff.

Amy .... don't go into Sally's asking for hydrogen peroxide. The teenybopper behind the counter will look at you like you have two heads. They call it a "developer".
Bristor's "White Knight" is 20%(not volume) peroxide.... I've seen Jimmy naked Just got me a gallon.

UV lights kills the inner hidden germs of carpet and make them fresh. Quiet effective method of carpet cleaning.
