	SporiCLEAN is the "GREEN" Alternative to Chemical Disinfecting... Tests continue to reveal excellent results! Decontaminate and Hygienically Clean all Washable Surfaces!

What is SporiCLEAN?

FIRST... SporiCLEAN is NOT A CHEMICAL CLEANER! We are always asked if SporiCLEAN is safe? It is not only safe... it is very effective at hygienically cleaning all washable surfaces. SporiCLEAN cannot be compared with a chemical solution as it performs in a completely different manner... SAFELY AND EFFECTIVELY!

SporiCLEAN is an all natural Plant-Based (organic) Multi-Enzyme blended GREEN Cleaning product. SporiCLEAN is Non-Toxic, Non-Caustic, Non-Hazardous and Non-Harmful to People, Pets and Plants along with being beneficial and safe to our water and aquatic life - (fish and plants). SporiCLEAN is made with a neutral pH 6.75 - 7.25 making it the most environmentally balanced and beneficial product in the market.

What is SporiCLEAN made of?

The major ingredients are a Multi-Enzyme formulation primarily consisting of: (Protease, Amylase, Lipase, Cellulase and Carbohydrase along with several sub-level enzymes… and we also blend in an organic Coconut Oil for our Surfactant!

What do these enzymes do?

The Protease enzyme breaks down and digests only organic protein substance or microorganism.

The Amylase enzyme breaks down and digests only organic carbohydrates into simple basic sugar components.

The Lipase enzyme breaks down and digests only greases, fats and fatty-oils (common to foods and cooking). These are safe and beneficial to rinse straight down the drains - where SporiCLEAN will continue to perform its beneficial digesting action throughout the drain pipes, drain pipe walls, sewer systems, septic systems and waste water treatment facilities.

The Cellulase enzyme only digests or breaks down fibrous matter (like yeast and other fungus/mold matter). The roots of a mold are called hyphae (hi-pha) and are a fibrous substance that "Bleach will not effect!"

The Carbohydrase enzyme only digests or breaks down hydrocarbon (petroleum distillates) such as motor oils and machine oils - the oils that drip from our automobiles.

NOTE: Enzymes do not break down synthetic materials or oils - only "organic matter!"

What are Enzymes?

Enzymes are a "protein" catalyst "energy." Enzymes are made up of amino-acids and become a protein molecule. Enzymes ARE NOT a living microorganism, but ARE a "Living Energy" capable of one single action; to break down or digest a specific organic molecule or microorganism. EXAMPLE: The Protease enzyme only breaks down a protein molecule or microorganism. So what kind of microorganisms are made of protein? All molds, and all bacteria (including all infectious bacteria MRSA, C-Dif, VRE, PVL, and other "super-bugs"). Note: All viruses are known as parasites and are a sub-microorganism which is covered with a protein coating. When a virus is exposed to the Protease enzyme, the enzyme breaks down the protein coating and causes the virus to become "inert or incapable of living or reproducing." When the Protease enzyme comes into contact with any living mold or bacteria, the Protease enzyme completely and thoroughly breaks down the microorganisms and dissolves it! Once the mold or bacteria is broken down, it can no longer survive or reproduce and will stop living. SporiCLEAN is quickly replacing all harmful and toxic chemical disinfectants, because these chemicals no longer disinfect the "Super-Bugs" (infectious bacteria) as they have built an immune resistance to the chemicals!

NOTE: Molds and infectious bacteria have not shown the ability to build an immune resistance to the "living energy" of the Protease enzyme! This is a vitally important scientific fact to always remember! SporiCLEAN contains multi-enzymes which are capable of gently yet very effectively destroying Mold, Bacteria, Viruses and household Germs.

How can SporiCLEAN clean so many different types of surfaces?

As mentioned above, SporiCLEAN is made up of multiple enzymes, and each enzyme will only perform the action listed above. By combining these multiple enzymes into one totally SAFE and GREEN cleaning solution, SporiCLEAN is capable of cleaning away all "organic" matter from all washable surfaces. NOTE: You need several different chemicals cleaners to clean your kitchen, bathroom, tile & grout, living room, carpets, stoves & appliances etc., and you will easily spend over $100.00 per year in these unnecessary and harmful chemical cleaning products! With SporiCLEAN, you will hygienically clean all the same surfaces but with one single product... and that, will SAVE YOU $100s of dollars per year! SporiCLEAN will not harm washable surfaces no matter what they may be coated or treated with. Often we are asked about treated marble, ceramic and tile, and the answer is simple, SporiCLEAN will not have any adverse effects on these materials or surface treatments!

Can SporiCLEAN help with Toe-nail or Finger nail fungus?

SporiCLEAN is very effective at breaking down and digesting the fungus that grows on the feet and within or under the nails. For several years, we have been receiving excellent reports how SporiCLEAN has assisted many people from this fungus outbreak. Use the General Purpose 2-ounce dilution and either spray it over the infected area or for your nails, use a cotton-swab to disperse the solution. This will take about 1 to 3 weeks for you to see a very good improvement.

How good does SporiCLEAN clean?

SporiCLEAN cleans safer and more thoroughly than any "toxic or caustic chemical cleaner." SporiCLEAN cleans "hygienically" meaning "healthy cleaning" and will not harm any surface material it is cleaning. "SporiCLEAN is The GREEN Alternative to Chemical Disinfectants!!"

SporiCLEAN is the most Natural GREEN cleaning product you can buy in the market. It has been tested against the leading toxic chemical disinfectants and cleaned equally as well or better without damaging or harming sensitive surfaces and fabrics. No other product is safer or more effective at eliminating dirt, grime and organic debris from all washable surfaces along with MOLD, INFECTIOUS BACTERIA, VIRUSES and GERMS!

How do I use the SporiCLEAN concentrate?

There are 2 basic dilutions. (1) General Purpose Cleaner and (2) Professional Strength Mold Remediation and/or Sewer/Flood Water Clean-up.

General Purpose Cleaner: Pour 2-ounces of SporiCLEAN concentrate into 1-gallon of clean water (store bought is good but not necessary). Normal drinking tap water is considered good. If you have well-water that is purified and/or softened, it will work. If not, you should purchase clean “spring or distilled water” from your local store. The General Purpose mixture is used on all indoor cleaning for all washable surfaces. Kitchens, sinks-faucets, counter-tops, appliances (inside and out) – vegetable bins, micro-wave interiors, stoves (with Baking Soda & SporiCLEAN as a Paste), wood floors, tile floors, ceramic, stone, treated stone or marble, granite, (leather [with care] and fabric furniture), carpeting, sheets, pillows, bed-frames, bathrooms, tile & grout… all washable surfaces! If it’s Washable… it’s SporiCLEAN(able)!!

NOTE: SporiCLEAN is SAFE and EFFECTIVE on ALL Washable surfaces… even those where the manufacturer recommends that you only use their product (like carpet cleaners or high-end counter-top granite or marble treated surfaces). SporiCLEAN is absolutely NOT a chemical product and will not harm these surfaces. It cannot and will not harm any washable surface like chemical cleaners do! SporiCLEAN is non-toxic, non-caustic, non-harmful, non-hazardous and it has a neutral pH from 6.75 to 7.25.

Professional Strength Mold Remediation and/or Sewer/Flood Water Clean-up: Pour 4-ounces of SporiCLEAN concentrate into 1-gallon of clean water (store bought is good but not necessary). SporiCLEAN can be sprayed, fogged or foamed on target surfaces. We recommend using a cold-fogger with a 10-15 micron dispensing nozzle to provide the extended aerosolization of the droplets. (15-20 minute hang-time) When decontaminating mold or infectious floodwater bacteria, spray this mixture liberally over all washable surfaces and allow to penetrate for 10 to 15 minutes. Spray an additional layer of SporiCLEAN and brush it into the substrate with a medium bristle brush to begin to degrade the debris. Allow this brushed mixture to penetrate for 5 to 10 minutes and rinse thoroughly with clean water (either by power-washer, micro-fiber towel or other cleaning rag). When completed with this hygienic cleaning process, you can spray a light coating of SporiCLEAN to provide a residual protective coating.

How long will SporiCLEAN last (Shelf-Life)?

Whether in full concentrate or diluted in water, SporiCLEAN will last for around 2-years! NOTE: We use an organic coconut oil as our surfactant and it can separate or fall out of the solution. If you notice this, simply shake the bottle gently to put it back into solution, and you are ready to use it again.

Does temperature have an effect on SporiCLEAN?

Yes. Try to avoid freezing SporiCLEAN as it will inactivate the enzymes and you will need to wait for them to completely thaw. Once thawed, they are active and good to use. You need to remember that using SporiCLEAN in lower temperatures from (35^oF to 45^oF), the Enzymes will react slowly and you will be required to use much more elbow-grease [labor] to clean a surface.

High temperatures can have an irreversible effect and destroy the enzyme energy. Do not use above 150^oF to 155^oF. Avoid storing SporiCLEAN in automobiles or garages where temperatures in the hot summer months can exceed 150^oF. You will destroy the enzyme energy!

Does using more SporiCLEAN then shown in the directions work better?

If you use more than the 4 ounces, you will not harm your cleaning, but you will only be using more product than necessary. We performed highly controlled laboratory tests for over 1-year and used 1 ounce, 2 ounces, 3 ounces all the way up to 12 ounces. We learned in the controlled laboratory tests that over 4 ounces, you were simply wasting product! We want to save money… not throw it away!

Can SporiCLEAN harm my fabrics or carpeting?

No! SporiCLEAN is an all natural (non-chemical) GREEN Cleaning product. It will not stain or harm fabric fibers or carpet fibers as long as you do not pour the full concentrate directly into the fabric or carpet. You must always use the diluted (2-ounces of concentrate to 1-gallon of clean water). The full strength heavy concentrate is far too much enzymes to put on any fabric surface and you would need to immediately flush it thoroughly with a constant flood of clean water to dilute it. Remember, 2 ounces make a full gallon of Ready-to-use product for all interior household cleaning… including carpet stains!!

How do I clean mold from my vinyl siding and concrete walkway?

You would use 4-ounces of SporiCLEAN concentrate per 1-gallon of water on all outdoor cleaning projects. The same as you would for indoor mold remediation and flood water clean-up projects. The outdoors have many temperature swings, rain, snow or heavy winds that embed the dirt and grime into the surfaces. The sun’s Ultraviolet Rays break down fabrics and other materials leaving them weaker and more susceptible to rain and mold damage.

To Clean Outdoors: Pour 4-ounces of concentrate into 1-gallon of water. Use a Hand-Pump Sprayer (available at any good hardware store) and pour the gallon mixture into the holding tank. Pump the tank with air-pressure and begin to spray the moldy, mildew, and dirty surface. Next: Take a medium bristle brush and brush the SporiCLEAN mixture into the surface dirt or mold to begin the separation from the surface. Next: Allow the brushed mixture to penetrate into the surface for a minimum of 5-minutes. There isn’t a time that is too long, if the SporiCLEAN dries, simply spray over it again and then rinse it off with a garden hose (jet-spray nozzle) or a power-washer. NOTE: Use extreme caution with a power-washer as it can harm or dig into wood, siding, or fabrics and ruin them. Never use a power-washer unless you are experienced!

SUMMARY: Spray on the SporiCLEAN Mixture. Brush it into the dirty surface. Allow it to penetrate (dwell on the surface) for at least 5-minutes. Rinse it off. If you have prolonged embedded dirt or mold, you may need to repeat these steps several times. IMPORTANT NOTE: The first time you apply the SporiCLEAN to a contaminated surface, you will have hygienically cleaned (decontaminated) the surface if you followed these steps.

Liberally spray the contaminated surface with a 4-ounce of SporiCLEAN concentrate to 1-gallon of water. Insure you have sprayed all contaminated surfaces.
Brush the solution into the contaminated surface to assist in moving the enzymes deeply into the debris and substrate to begin the breaking down process.
Allow the SporiCLEAN solution to penetrate and dwell on the surface [to break down the contamination] for at least 10-minutes. NOTE: If the solution dries, simply spray the surface again.
Rinse the excess dissolved debris from the surface with clean water. You can use a hose, power-washer, micro-fiber towel, sponge or rag to insure you have thoroughly rinsed the surface. It is important to rinse the contamination from the surface to maintain a hygienically clean surface.
After you have thoroughly decontaminated the surface and allowed it to completely dry, you may resurface or paint the substrate. NOTE: Once the surface is decontaminated, the only residue that may be left would be the mold staining… and that may take some extra elbow-grease or several washings… but the mold is no longer living! There are times when the staining is deeply embedded into the cells of the material and it will not come off. The mold will not re-grow, but the staining may be left.

Can SporiCLEAN be used on Asphalt Shingles?

No, SporiCLEAN has a Carbohydrase enzyme that can slowly break down the petroleum based asphalt in the shingling. This can eventually shorten the life of the shingles. We recommend that you contact www.RoofReviver.com (Tim & Mica Moeller) for your asphalt roof shingle cleaning product. NOTE: For slate, tile, wood and metal roofing materials, SporiCLEAN will work excellent! The Carbohydrase enzyme breaks down hydrocarbons and motor oils. This is beneficial for garage oil stains!

Why does SporiCLEAN seem so expensive?

SporiCLEAN is actually much less expensive than any cleaner that you would buy in a Dollar Store! You must remember that SporiCLEAN is a ‘heavy concentrate’ and a little goes a long way. It is also good for 2-years! The cleaning chemicals you would purchase in a dollar store are diluted so much that they are ineffective! Here’s a SporiCLEAN Cost Breakdown.

A quart bottle of SporiCLEAN costs $32.00. One 32-ounce quart makes 16-gallons of General Purpose and 8 Gallons of Professional Strength Cleaner. Your actual Ready-To-Use (RTU) cost is as follows:

General Purpose 16-Gallons = $2.00/Gallon and $0.50/Quart

Professional Strength 8-Gallons = $4.00/Gallon and $1.00/Quart

SporiCLEAN is very cost-effective, especially when you calculate how many harmful and toxic chemical cleaning products you must purchase that SporiCLEAN replaces. You will save at least $100 per year.

Does SporiCLEAN work at destroying insects and bed-bugs etc?

Yes, SporiCLEAN is excellent at breaking down and destroying the following insects. Always use the general purpose dilution of 2-ounces of SporiCLEAN concentrate to 1-gallon of clean water for all of the following applications:

Household Ants & Spiders: 2-ounces of SporiCLEAN concentrate into 1-gallon of water will work just excellent against these insects. Spray directly onto the insects. Larger insects will require multiple sprays (larger spiders and carpenter ants as an example).
Dust-Mites & Bed-Bugs: 2-ounces (as above) and lightly spray over furniture, carpets, sheets, bedding, pillows (pillow cases) and allow it to dry. Before you make your bed in the morning, spray a light coating over the sheets and bedding and allow it to thoroughly air-dry for about 10-minutes before re-making the bed. It is completely safe to people, pets and plants.
Flea Shampoo for Cats & Dogs: Take a cup of the 2-ounce solution (as above) and pour it over the cat or dog and gently brush (massage) it into the fur. Allow the [almost NO visible foam] solution to penetrate the fur for approximately 10-15 minutes and rinse thoroughly. You may need to repeat this a couple of times, but it is an excellent NON-TOXIC and SAFE Flea Shampoo. If you have fleas indoors, spray this same dilution over the carpeting, furniture and drapes. Spray anywhere you suspect that the fleas have traveled to. NOTE: Avoid getting SporiCLEAN directly into the eyes - it will not harm the eyes, but the enzymes will cause the eyes to dry-out. If you do get some into the eyes, gently rinse for a couple of minutes. No harm will occur to the eyes beyond a mild-irritation.
Head-Lice (People): Repeat the same application as for a flea shampoo. NOTE: Avoid getting SporiCLEAN directly into the eyes - it will not harm the eyes, but the enzymes will cause the eyes to dry-out. If you do get some into the eyes, gently rinse for a couple of minutes. No harm will occur to the eyes beyond a mild-irritation.
