Technical Data

CPR is a revolutionary Encap product with exceptional cleaning power that penetrates, breaks up and emulsifies the oily film that binds dirt particles to carpet fibers. With only three minutes dwell time, CPR will also impart Acid-Dye stain resistance to both nylon and wool fibers.

CPR contains a clear dye that quickly penetrates/fills the dye sites of the fibers preventing other acid dyes from adhering. This clear dye will not be removed when you clean whether you are using a low moisture or a hot water extraction cleaning method.

More Info

Over time, stain resistant carpet loses stain resistance from wear and cleaning. CPR refreshes and rejuvenates that lost stain resistance. If nylon or wool never had stain resistance to begin with, it simply imparts it to them. You should charge a Premium Price for cleaning with CPR! After all, the customer is getting a lot more than just a simple cleaning.

It’s amplified formula also attacks and eliminates sticky residue left from soda spills and previously applied cleaning products. As it dries it expands and shatters into tiny crystals containing the encapsulated dirt. These crystals become the vehicles for soil removal during routine post-vacuuming and will appear in the vacuum bag in a silty/powdery form.

Features

  • Refreshes and rejuvenates lost stain resistance from wear and cleaning.
  • Imparts Acid Dye stain resistance to both nylon and wool firber.
  • Justifies a higher price for cleaning and makes you more money.
  • Slices through grease, dirt & grime that competitive products leave behind!
  • ZERO sticky or dirt-attracting residue
  • Penetrates and emulsifies the sticky film that binds dirt to carpet and upholstery fibers.
  • Very pleasant scent.
  • Dries brittle so that it can be quickly and easily vacuumed away.
  • Stain resist safe (pH approx 8 at 1:21 dilution).
  • Freeze-Thaw stable.

  • Much less expensive equipment is needed. (More profit for you)
  • Carpets stay cleaner longer. (No sticky residue with anti-wicking acrylic polymer)
  • Much less labor intensive. (More profit for you)
  • Much fewer wicking issues. (Low moisture and anti-wicking acrylic polymer)
  • Less environmental impact (No dirty water to discharge into sewers/drains)

What is the difference between a "Film Former" and a "Crystallizer?"

The main difference is easier to understand when the two types of encaps are dried down in shallow dishes and placed side by side. Here is a short video demonstration.
In the video, we simply added 20% additional polymer to our film-forming product, “Dirt-Axe.” The additional polymer converted the regular formula of “Dirt-Axe” from being a “Film Former” to becoming a “Crystallizer.”

NOTE: We only sell Dirt-Axe as a film former to keep its cost low. The video was produced only to show the difference between the two types of encaps.

Crystallizers are better at removing sticky residue left from previously applied cleaning products. They also effectively render sugary/sticky substances that have accumulated in the carpet (i.e., soda spills) non-sticky. Once they are rendered non-sticky, they can be easily vacuumed away.

Why is a crystallizer better than a film former at removing sticky residue?
Because a good crystallizing formula will contain “MORE EXCESS POLYMER” than that of a film former.

By “MORE EXCESS POLYMER,” we mean the amount of polymer in the formula beyond the amount needed to render its other ingredients non-sticky.

Many ingredients used to create a good cleaning formula are inherently sticky themselves. If not completely removed or somehow rendered non-sticky, they can be the cause of rapid re-soiling of carpeting and upholstery.
The EXCESS polymer is left to mix with sticky substances in the carpet and render them non-sticky. They will then no longer be able to attract dirt and will be vacuumed away during routine vacuuming.

Remember that most Film Formers also contain a certain amount of excess polymer to fight stickiness, but not nearly as much as Crystallizers.

NOTE: Crystallizers, in general, are usually more expensive than Film Formers due to their higher cost to produce.

Some encap distributors only sell Film Formers to keep their costs low and therefore be able to have more competitive pricing. As the old adage says, “You Usually Get What You Pay For.” We make both types available. Some formulas can only be produced as Film Formers due to the other types of ingredients used in the formula.

What are your best cleaners for the "nasties" such as Restaurants, Apartments, etc.?
  1. Commercial Magic (Best for low moisture use on carpets not under warranty. Has a high pH. It might be a bit too foamy for Hot Water Extraction.) It is an excellent Crystallizer.
  2. Xtraction Magic (Best for Hot Water Extraction. Has a high pH, but has less foam than Commercial Magic.) Also great for Low Moisture use. It is a Film Former.
  3. Formula 357 (Best for use for carpets under warranty. Has pH less than 10.) It is an excellent Crystallizer.
