Urine odor removal requires six separate steps in order to ensure successful and complete removal. Three of these steps involve odor control chemicals and three involve rinsing and removing liquids. These steps must be completed in the order written and ALL steps must be done to ensure that you have broken down and removed the all of the different sources of the odor involved in urine.
Warning: Always test materials for colorfastness, follow label directions, and never mix products unless specified in the label directions. Each situation reacts differently and results may vary.
This is an advanced procedure for severe situations. This may include replacing the carpet cushion and sealing the subfloor. Be very careful with the amount of solution added to the carpet on the second floor of a home or on a wood subfloor. In these situations use only enough solution to saturate the pad. Extract after 15 minutes then reapply. Check out the complete instructions https://www.jondon.com/matrix-miracle-odor-and-stain-remover-1.html
Step 1: Dilute 8 oz (4 scoops) of Matrix Miracle per gallon of hottest water possible.
Step 2: Saturate the area by pouring the Miracle solution directly on the stained area. Remember the stain below is typically twice the size as the stain on the surface, so thorough saturation is essential.
Step 3: Agitate the area using a groomer or wand (with no solution or vacuum) to ensure penetration.
Step 4: Allow 30 minutes dwell time.
Note: To use your time wisely, we recommend performing this procedure before any other task on a cleaning job (e.g. applying pre-spray, running hoses, removing spots, making repairs, etc.) By the time those other tasks have been completed, the Miracle solution will have had enough dwell time.
Step 5: Thoroughly extract the area (no rinsing) using a sub-surface/flood extraction tool, such as the Water Claw FlashXtractor II.
Step 6: Dry the area thoroughly using an air mover, such as the Typhoon or DriPod.
Supplies and Equipment Needed:
Step 1: In the event of severe contamination, it is essential that the padding beneath the carpet be replaced. Begin by pulling back the carpet to expose the contaminated pad.
Note: Be sure to follow IICRC guidelines for carpet and pad reinstallation.
Technician tip: Gently place the new pad over the old pad and cut through both pads at the same time. This will ensure the replacement pad is the exact size needed. Don’t worry, a few moments of contact won’t contaminate the new pad.
Step 2: Seal the sub-floor (if contaminated).
Step 3: Create a temporary “bath” for the contaminated carpet using 6 mil plastic sheeting and masking tape. Be sure to overlap the uncontaminated pad by at least 6" to keep it from getting wet.
Step 4: Lay the carpet back over the plastic and prepare the Miracle solution.
Step 5: Apply the Miracle solution to the affected area. Average coverage for Miracle in this situation (no pad under the carpet) is 5 sq ft per gallon of ready-to-use solution.
Step 6: Use your wand like a squeegee (no vacuum or solution) to move the Miracle solution around and ensure proper coverage. Allow the solution to dwell for 30 minutes.
Step 7: Extract the front and back of the carpet using your wand (no solution).
Step 8: Insert the new pad over the plastic sheeting and secure it in place with pad tape. Reinstall the carpet. Remember that the carpet backing is much weaker while it is wet and may be damaged easily during the reinstallation process.
Note: Be sure to follow IICRC guidelines for carpet and pad reinstallation.
