Releasit Encap-Clean DS2 (55-Gallon Drum) Encapsulation Carpet Cleaning Detergent [Encap]

Carpet that quickly turns gray again after cleaning creates extra work and makes routine maintenance harder. Most dry soil can be removed by vacuuming. The harder part is the oily and sticky soil that holds dry soil to the surface and creates the dull, gray appearance.

Releasit Encap-Clean DS2 is made to counter that problem. This low-moisture encapsulation detergent penetrates embedded soil and holds it in suspension.

• Cleans about 544,500 square feet: At the standard 4-ounce dilution, 55 gallons of concentrate are mixed with 1,760 gallons of water to make 1,815 total gallons of ready-to-use solution. At approximately 300 square feet per ready-to-use gallon, DS2 cleans about 544,500 square feet.
• CRYSTALON3 handles oily soil: This oil-loving polymer surrounds soil particles in the carpet and dries to a crystal that cannot attract other soil. The encapsulated soil particles can then be removed through normal routine vacuuming.
• The drum lowers your cost per concentrated gallon: For companies that use DS2 regularly, buying in bulk reduces chemical cost while keeping a large supply available for high-volume commercial carpet care.
• It works with common commercial carpet-cleaning equipment: DS2 can be used with Cimex machines, orbital scrubbers, CRB machines, 175 RPM rotary scrubbers, and bonnet or pad systems. It can also be used for spot cleaning, upholstery shampooing, and recurring spill treatment.

Encap-Clean DS2 has a 5.0-star average across more than 300 customer reviews on its 1-gallon and 4-gallon listings at Excellent-Supply.com.

Mix the drum contents thoroughly before using and mix them regularly to maintain consistent performance. A stainless steel expandable-blade drum mixer is recommended.

For shampoo or encapsulation cleaning, mix 4 ounces of Encap-Clean DS2 per gallon of hot water. Scrub the carpet thoroughly, making overlapping passes with an appropriate scrubber. Look for a light whitening of thin foam on the surface. A heavy foam buildup is not desirable.

DS2 works best when shower-fed through a Cimex or similar machine. It can also be used in spray applications such as bonnet/pad cleaning and CRB cleaning.

For more heavily soiled sections, make additional scrubbing passes without applying more solution. Rinsing is not required. Vacuum the carpet at the next scheduled vacuuming interval to remove the encapsulated soil particles.

For heavily soiled traffic lanes, DS2 can be used as a pre-spray. Mix 6 ounces per gallon of water and apply it with a coarse-tip sprayer. Encap-Punch can also be used according to its label.

For bonnet or pad cleaning, mix 4-6 ounces per gallon of water. Apply the solution with a coarse-tip sprayer. Scrub the carpet thoroughly, making overlapping passes with a damp, clean bonnet or pad.

For recurring spill treatment, mix one part Encap-Clean DS2 with two parts water in a spray bottle. Apply a few squirts and brush the spot, working the solution thoroughly through the carpet fibers. Always test for colorfastness in an inconspicuous area before cleaning.

Encap-Clean DS2 has a concentrate pH of 8.5-9 and a fresh citrus scent. It is safe for colorfast wool and all synthetic carpet fibers.

Allow approximately two weeks of lead time for drum orders. The drum ships by freight to a commercial warehouse or business location with a loading dock or forklift. Review the applicable freight terms below before ordering.

For companies that use DS2 in volume, the 55-gallon drum lowers chemical cost while providing high-production cleaning without leaving a sticky, soil-attracting residue behind. Because the dried crystal cannot attract other soil, the carpet stays cleaner longer and is easier to maintain.
