WASC! cleaning process
WASC! penetrates deep into the fibers to reach the most stubborn stains and dirt.
When the different types of cleaning particles "find" the dirt, a process is started to detach them from the fibers of the base material.
Some particles in the product act as binders and trap the dirt molecules.
Once the dirt is stuck, it's encapsulated by these particles that bring them up to the surface, and they can easily be wiped off.
