The Scotchgard protector applicator (with formula included) can be used to help retain the carpet cleanliness you achieve with your ProHeat machine. For best results the post cleaning treatment should be applied while the carpet is still wet or damp. It is recommended that the Scotchgard protector is applied every 12 months in all carpeted areas, and after every deep cleaning for high traffic areas such as entryways and stairs.

Immediately after cleaning and rinsing your carpets, empty the
