from $54.00

Crush caked-on restaurant grease, thick soot, and severely tracking soils instantly with Knockout Heavy-Duty Traffic Lane Cleaner - Powder, a professional-grade, ultra-concentrated high-alkaline pre-spray. Engineered specifically for commercial carpet cleaning technicians, owner-operators, and heavy-duty property restoration crews, this premium powder delivers unmatched restorative power where standard traffic lane formulas fail.

Knockout Powder features an aggressive chemical profile driven by deep-penetrating Sodium Hydroxide builders and advanced solvents, delivering an ultra-high ready-to-use (RTU) alkalinity of approximately 14 pH. It goes to work immediately on contact, chemically breaking apart, dissolving, and emulsifying heavy petroleum oils, animal fats, soot, smoke films, and stubborn food or beverage stains. This fast-acting degreasing chemistry holds complex organic soils in complete suspension for effortless hot water extraction. By shrinking field dwell times and eliminating the need for tedious multiple wand passes, Knockout slashes labor costs on your toughest commercial jobs while leaving fibers thoroughly clean and residue-free.

  • Ultra-High Alkalinity Concentrate (approx 14 pH): Delivers instantaneous grease-liquefying action for rapid soil emulsification.

  • Sodium Hydroxide Builders: Penetrates deep into heavily packed synthetic fibers to break up sticky tracking grime and oil lines.

  • High-Efficiency Powder Value: Ultra-concentrated 32:1 mix ratio keeps product costs down while providing maximum chemical power per gallon.

    • Pump-Up / Electric Sprayer:

      • Normal Soil: Mix 1 oz per gallon of hot water.

      • Heavy Grease/Soil: Mix 2 oz per gallon of hot water.

    • Inline Injection Sprayer: Mix 8–12 oz in a standard 5-quart injection jug (calibrated for a 1:8 draw rate).

    • Maximum Alkalinity: Formulated at near ~14 pH to saponify oils and emulsify synthetic grease matrices instantly on contact.

    • Heat Stable Builders: Specifically engineered to thrive under high truckmount temperatures without separating or breaking down.

    • Low Dwell Efficiency: Immediate chemical binding action lifts soils rapidly, eliminating the need for prolonged dwell times or manual scrubbing.

    • Approved Fibers: Excellent for synthetic face fibers including Commercial Nylon, Olefin (Polypropylene), and Triexta.

    • Fibers to Avoid: Do not use on wool, silk, or any delicate natural fibers.

    • Neutralizing Extraction: Because of its high alkalinity, always follow extraction with a dedicated acid rinse (like Clean & Soft Fiber Acid Rinse) to hit a perfect neutral pH balance on the carpet, preventing browning and ensuring a soft hand finish.
