In this case... seeing is believing! Thank you for doing the side by side test. I have a kitchen fabric rug that I've cleaned with soapy water and a long handled scrub brush, but at 69, it's getting old. So, I thought about using the Scotch Guard to reduce the frequency of the washing, which is twice each year. Thanks again! : )

@MKu642 жыл бұрын
Honest question - I have a 40 year old leather couch that looks like new that has never had protection.. what does the guard actually do on leather? I can imagine for cloth where it is absorbent it makes sense, but what does it do to leather?

Hi..thanks for checking out our channel. These are many products that we have not tested, but of the more well known ones Scotchgard works as well as any of them. There are solvent based products but spraying them is very dangerous and i wouldn't recommend you apply in the home. Stick with Scotchgard and follow directions. We use 3 applications versus what their Recommendation of two.

Great question Some companys say it last forever, but that's not true. In areas with daily use like seat cushions, arm rests etc we have found it lasts about one year and should be reapplied after the next cleaning. Don't reapply without a thorough cleaning first. No matter the brand we use we advise reapplication after each cleaning. ☺

Why does color change
@DavidMavilio3 жыл бұрын
Hi Most likely the color change is because textiles and fabrics are made to reflect light to a varing degree. Adding a foreign substance, even though its at worst slightly opaque changes the amount of light that is reflected and absorbed. This changes the shading that we see.

@DavidMavilio3 жыл бұрын
HI Most protector manufactuerers will tell you that even though they were not designed to protect against particulate soils they will hold dust etc above the fabric to make it easy to vacuum up. Short answer: Yes In reality regular vacuuming (weekly) is best rather than doing a really thorough vacuum every few months.

Even on the vertical treated side, there is soaking through the material. For cars or SUV's .... depending on the price I paid for the vehicle, I will not allow anyone to eat or drink in my vehicle. Especially if I paid over $50K for same .... it's not a restaurant. You want to eat or drink? .... go to a restaurant. If you spill anything, the restaurant cleans it up. Just my two cents.
