• Use a dry vacuum cleaner over the area before using your deep cleaner.
• Pre-treat stains with BISSELL PreTreat to improve performance on coffee stains and ground-in dirt.

A note about the BISSELL formula

• One of the effective stain removing ingredients in Boost Oxy is Hydrogen Peroxide. Certain people may be affected by the product when it comes into contact with their skin; it may turn the skin white and/or cause tingling. Washing your hands after use and applying hand lotion will remove any possible white discoloration.
