Can I use solvent-based cleaners on my Tesserae Carpet System?
Milliken does not recommend any cleaning system consisting of mineral based solvent products. This includes spot cleaners, degreasers, or any other cleaner that contains mineral based solvents. Solvents will cause excessive soiling problems and can cause product deterioration. A solvent based cleaner would have active ingredients other than water and surfactant. Solvent-based cleaners are used to target oily or greasy spots. Typically these have been hydrocarbon or mineral spirit based. Now most people incorporate an alcohol or another water-soluble agent to gain the same effect. We recommend our Capture® Carpet Cleaner for this purpose.
