Carpet treated with stain remover C016 / 4425
Carpet treated with stain remover. Photograph showing the cleaning effect of stain remover on an old carpet. The right hand side has been treated. Stain removers often contain organic solvents such as butoxyethanol to dissolve the stain. Solvents are classified as a hazardous substance. Light exposure can cause irritation to the mucous membranes, eyes, nose and throat. Heavy exposure through skin contact, ingestion or inhalation can lead to serious health problems and possible death

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable cleaning effect of stain remover C016 / 4425 on an old carpet. The stark contrast between the treated and untreated sections is truly striking. On the right-hand side, where the stain remover has been applied, the once dingy and stained carpet now appears revitalized and pristine. Stain removers like this one often contain powerful organic solvents such as butoxyethanol, which play a crucial role in dissolving stubborn stains. However, it is important to note that these solvents are classified as hazardous substances due to their potential health risks. Exposure to light can cause irritation to sensitive areas like mucous membranes, eyes, nose, and throat. While light exposure may only result in discomfort for most individuals, heavy exposure through skin contact, ingestion or inhalation can lead to severe health problems and even be fatal. Therefore, caution must always be exercised when handling such products. In our modern 21st century homes, where cleanliness is paramount, we rely on effective stain removal solutions like this one to maintain a hygienic environment. This photograph serves as a reminder of both the transformative power of household cleaners and the importance of understanding their potential toxicity. Captured by Cordelia Molloy for Science Photo Library (not affiliated with any specific company), this image beautifully encapsulates how chemistry intersects with our everyday lives – from dirty carpets plagued by unsightly stains to their triumphant restoration through careful application of organic solvents found in stain removers.
