Easier Maintenance / Clean-Up
-If treated with Scotchguard, soot and stains tend to release more easily when cleaned, since the contaminants have more difficulty bonding to the fibers. Additionally, spills tend to blot up before the set as stains.
In 2003, 3M reformulated Scotchgard to be more environmentally friendly. It is unlikely that carpet cleaning companies recognize the impact of the reformulation on the product’s shelf life. The old product, using PFOS, had a shelf-life of 5.4 years. The new product, using PFBS, has a shelf life of a little over one month. It not uncommon for cleaning companies to do bulk orders on chemicals, then warehouse them, with less than ideal storage methods. The efficacy and potency of this product may be reduced for the consumer.
We train our technicians on the correct storage, use, and application of Scotchgard products. We recommend the use of Scotchgard with carpet and upholstery cleanings
every six months.
