I have seen several comments about only synthetic surfaces? Will it leave a residue on Karastan wool carpets?

No. I have not had issue with this. Just don't leave it on for more than 3 or so weeks. I use it under newspaper near a parrot cage and change it once a month. It really keeps the carpet protected... I keep my house cool...Maybe with lots of heat or in the sun, it may be an issue. I would keep that in mind.

I would suspect not. The adhesive is very strong and if anything, I would suspect the carpet will leave a residue on the shield, i.e. wool fibers. It's not going to rip the yarn off the carpet but you will see fibers when you remove it. I highly recommend it as it adheres well and thus protects the carpet with the additional benefit of providing a secure footing for the workers. Less likely to have trips and falls.

We have been using the surface shield for some time now during our puppy training time and I can say that when we do pull up the shield the carpet does seem to have a sticky type feel to it. It could be that since we have used the shield for some time that this is the cause but I do have to say it does leave behind some residue

It's very possible that it could if you left it on there for longer than a week or two

Not sure. W e have not done this but we have vacuumed all of the oriental rugs we have that are very good rugs without any problems.- silk and hand dyed wool.

I have never tried it on carpet i have however used it to clean a cloth couch with great results. I also use it for laundry it has never cause any bleaching or running of colors. My daughter in law swears by sals suds and uses it everywhere in her house. She has a toddler and is all about avoiding toxic chemicals. As they say test a small spot first - I think that the pine will break down most any stain.

It has never altered the color of any of our carpets. If in doubt, test in a corner of your closet. I've used it for several years without a problem but found it benefitted from a good "rinse" with water to the area if heavy use left a residue. I have a small Green Machine I use with only water sometimes.

It does a wonderful job of cleaning carpet. But, that said, it's always going to depend on the fiber. If the carpet is silk, wool or another natural blend, you may have a more difficult time than if it was a synthetic fiber.

I have not tried it as of yet on my wool carpet, but, I have read where people are using it on wool carpets.

curious after your question, I took a spoon of baking soda and srayed ADMS on it, there was no reaction other than dissolving the soda, so I don't see why you couldn't spray it on carpet that has soda on it.

I think it's safe enough for use on a wool rug. The smell is nice, the ease of use is fine, but I can't really say that I see any great cleaning power, but I use it for the sent any helping with loose dirt and dust removal.

I have used this product to clean all kinds of carpet spots with great success. I'm not sure about a wool rug but I think it wold be fine to clean a spot and let it dry without using any heat. Any heated drying would likely shrink the fabric. I would try a small spot--spray on the Advanage, rub a bit, rinse , and blot with a towel.

It works great on rugs of any size. Needs 2 coats to work well. My floors have not been scuffed up, so I guess it works as a anti-scuffer as well as being a non-slip rug product. I love this product but be sure to paint it on outside as the fumes and smell are bad until it dries. I also use it on the bottom of slippers I have knitted or crocheted as a non slip surface.

No it dose not leave residue. You have to let it dry after rubbing it on. It may take more than one coate to achieve your goal

I used it on a synthetic fabric shoe and it worked well. It didn't stain either.

I have only used it on carpets but you can email the company and they can provide additional info if you need it. They have great customer service.

It is great on rugs. I use it for all surfaces. It's so good I keep an extra for fear they stop manufacturing it. Mike

I've only tried it on vinyl table cloths, formica counters, microsuede couch and hardwood floors. It seemed to work well. It doesn't leave residue like other cleaners which I liked.

I know that it is used as an application on fields to enrich the soil. Also it can be used in a bath for sheep before shearing (diluted). My window washer(professional) has used it for years.' I have use it on my car windows (diluted).. I have used it on windows with good results(diluted). Also I have washed wool and wool cloth before dyeing with good results (with the advice of a dye teacher who has used it for years). I would have no worry about using it on marble, stone or wood - just rinse and dry to be sure there is no residue . JG

Here's what K2R says about the product: K2r Original is highly effective in removing oil and grease from dry-clean only fabrics (including polyester, acrylic, nylon, wool blends-regular and knits), washable fabrics, carpets and household and office upholstery (including sofas, recliners, chairs, etc.).Since "S" code fabrics are solvent (dry) clean only, K2r can definitely be used on "S" code fabrics.
