Description
Car carpets take sustained abuse. Dirt tracked in on shoes, spilled drinks, food dropped between seats, and mud and salt from footwells accumulate in carpet fibers over time and become increasingly difficult to remove as they work deeper into the pile. Wet extraction methods help, but they require heavy equipment and significant dry time. Dry Foam Auto Carpet Cleaner is a waterless, no-rinse foam formula that cleans carpet and upholstery fabric effectively without soaking the material or requiring a wet extraction machine.
No-Water, No-Rinse Formula
The dry foam formula works by encapsulating dirt and contamination in foam particles that dry and release from carpet fibers without leaving a wet residue. Apply the foam, work it into the carpet, allow it to dry, then vacuum or brush out. The dirt comes with it. This approach eliminates the soaked carpet problem that occurs with liquid cleaners and wet extraction, which can soak padding and sub-floor materials and create musty odors from slow drying, especially in winter or humid conditions.
No-rinse means no water is needed during or after application. This makes Dry Foam practical in situations where a water source isn't available and where wet carpet simply isn't an option, such as a quick detail in a parking garage or between uses of a vehicle that needs to stay drivable.
What It Removes
- Ground-in dirt and soil from foot traffic
- Food spills and stains worked into carpet fibers
- Pet hair and dander embedded in carpet
- General grime and discoloration from extended use
How to Use
Vacuum the carpet first to remove loose debris. Apply Dry Foam generously to the carpet area. Use a carpet brush or scrub brush to work the foam into the fibers with firm, circular or back-and-forth strokes. Allow the foam to dry completely. Vacuum once dry to remove the encapsulated dirt. For heavily soiled areas, repeat the process on a second pass.
For spot stains that need targeted treatment, pair with Carpet Stain Spot Remover as a pre-treatment on specific stain areas before applying the dry foam overall. For professional extraction machine cleaning, Lift Out Carpet Extractor Cleaner is the purpose-built formula for that process.
