You would expect an all in one product to not be a very potent cleaner.\u00a0 Optimum Carpet & Fabric Cleaner & Proectant<\/a> however, does an outstanding job at removing grime from carpets and upholstery.\u00a0 Although it can be diluted, I will use it at full strength for dedicated cleaning.<\/p>\n

I have always preferred using dedicated upholstery cleaners over all-purpose cleaners or all in one type of products, but this product has often been my one exception. Below is a photo of what I was starting with.<\/p>\n

After vacuuming, Optimum Fabric Cleaner And Protectant made quick work out of these carpets and floor mats. Don’t believe me, check out the photos below!<\/p>\n

\"cleancarpet\"<\/p>\n

\"dirtymicrofiber\"<\/p>\n

For application, all I did was spray directly on a microfiber towel and wiped immediately for light cleaning.\u00a0 As an insurance cleaner (whatever gunk remains) cleaner and protectant, I will spray directly on the surface and wipe with a microfiber towel after counting to about 5 seconds.\u00a0 If I am using it as my primary cleaner on a heavily soiled surface, I will spray onto the surface, agitate with a medium bristle brush<\/a>, and wipe with a microfiber towel.\u00a0 This S2000 fabric (shown below) was cleaned and protected with minimal effort.<\/p>\n

\"finishedshot1\"<\/p>\n

Although it would not replace my collection of upholstery cleaners, Optimum Carpet & Fabric Cleaner & Protectant can handle many jobs on its own.\u00a0 It also boosts up to 6 months of protection.\u00a0 Although 6 months of protection can be a very unreliable estimate, especially based upon foot traffic that can drastically cut that number down.\u00a0 If I am not using Gyeon Fabric Coat<\/a>, this product is my go-to last step product.<\/p>\n
