Genesis 950 FAQ



Genesis 950 FAQ

1. What Is Genesis 950?

Genesis 950 is a green all purpose concentrated cleaner. Being green doesn't just mean it's safe for the environment, it also means it is safe for you, your family and your pets. Genesis 950 is free of chemicals found in traditional cleaners that have been linked to asthma, respiratory issues and cancer. Rather than use harsh chemicals, Genesis 950 works with water as a surfactant. When mixed with water, Genesis 950 breaks bonds of stains. Once the bonds of stains are broken, they lose adherence and can be flushed away from the surface. Being an all purpose cleaner means Genesis 950 can clean everything from carpets to car engines. This multipurpose cleaner can be used to remove pet stains from carpet, mildew from bathtubs, grease from the stove and so much more!



2. Does Genesis 950 Work?

Yes! Genesis 950 works! However we are a little biased! So don't take our word for it, just read the reviews. These reviews were not paid for, nor are the reviewers affiliated with Genesis 950. The reviewers were not given instruction on what to clean. They were simply sent the product and cleaned whatever they felt needed cleaning. Whether they cleaned carpet stains, furniture, concrete, appliances or fixtures, all of them were ecstatic about Genesis 950!

3. Will Genesis 950 Remove Pet Stains And Odors?

Yes! Because Genesis 950 is a surfactant cleaner, mixing it with water activates it so that the stain can absorb the mixture of 950 and water. This absorption makes the stain water soluble. Once a stain has become water soluble, it can then be broken down. After the stain has been broken down, it can then rinsed clean from the area. In addition to removing the stain, Genesis 950 also removes the odor. It will kill any bacteria that has resulted from the stain. By killing the bacteria, it removes the odor. Other cleaners might contain chemicals which can discolor your carpet, cause illness to your pet or briefly mask the odor for a short period of time.



4. Is Genesis 950 Safe?

Yes! Genesis 950 is a green, environmentally friendly product. It will not cause harm to you, your family, your pets or the surface you are cleaning. There are several federally regulated hazardous chemicals. Genesis 950 does not contain any hazardous chemicals on the list. It also has an extremely low VOC level - even in concentrate form. Most cleaners sold contain up to 90% water. This is because the chemical content is so high that they can not be sold as a concentrate and the only way they can be sold is by watering it down to reduce the chemical content. The only warning on Genesis 950 is to use gloves when cleaning. This is not because Genesis 950 will cause harm if it comes in contact with skin, but because Genesis 950 is a surfactant, it pull oil from your skin, in turn, causing dry skin.

8. Why Is Genesis 950 Not Sold In Stores?

Genesis 950 is not available in stores for a number of reasons. The primary reason is the nature of our company, Amerikal. Amerikal Products is one of the largest companies involved in the printing industry. Amerikal manufactures sustainable solutions for the printing industry. This includes chemistry used in printing packaging for food, pharmaceuticals and other consumable and non-consumable products. Chances are if you have any type of food product in your home, Amerikal had something to do with the chemistry used to package it. Whether it be in the design of the printing press, ensuring that the package was free of any toxins or chemicals used in the printing of the box or container. As a key player in this market, contributing to Fortune 500 companies, Amerikal had not been involved in retail sales. Our primary role is in the printing area, not consumer retail. But there are many other reasons Genesis 950 is not available in retail stores. Too often in retail stores, employees provide incorrect information on a product. With Genesis 950, it is very important water is used to activate the 950. If associates at stores were not there to explain this and the product was not used correctly, it would not work. We want to make sure that customers use the product correctly. We are also available to help customers use the product. Various stains call for different mixing ratios and treatment. We want customers to know they can reach us and we can help them use the product. Cost is another factor. If Genesis 950 were available in retail stores, there would be unnecessary markup on the product.  

9. Does Genesis 950 Have Any Money Back Guarantees?

No. Genesis 950 does not have any such guarantee. There are some other products available which can actually lock stains into the carpet. If such a product was used in the past, and it has locked the stain in, Genesis 950 can not reverse or be held accountable for damage done by the other product. Likewise, other products can also discolor or damage surfaces. Again, Genesis 950 can not restore damage done from another cleaning product. There is a huge difference between a stain and discoloration, and Genesis 950 (or any cleaning product for that matter) can not repair the latter. Genesis 950 does work, and we will stand behind that. In the event, it is not working as expected, call us directly at 847-244-3600 and we will help by learning the specifics of your cleaning situation, and ensure that no steps were missed when cleaning. The directions on the website are general directions and variations are available for tougher stains. We have had over 500,000 orders and do everything we can to ensure customers are happy, satisfied and pleased with the results. We work with customers! We would NEVER neglect a customer with questions or concerns. 

10. What Will Genesis 950 Clean?

Genesis 950 can be used to remove any water soluble stain. It will clean pet stains, carpeting, grease, oil, tar, food, pasta, wine, kool-aid, play dough, make up, ink, dye, wax and so much more. We are always hearing new and exciting stains that have been removed by customers. Genesis 950 can be used on virtually any surface. Carpet, clothing, upholstery, furniture, tile, concrete, linoleum, asphalt, aluminum, stainless steel, fiberglass, finished and painted wood, walls, stone, leather, microfiber and more. The only surface that it is not advisable to use Genesis 950 on is untreated or unfinished wood. This is because the wood will absorb the moisture and it may cause warping or expansion.

13. What Are Customers Saying?


best all purpose cleaner"I have mixed it 50/50 in a spray bottle and have found it works better than anything else I have tried on the following:
1. My outside grill. It cleaned baked on grease almost as well as oven cleaner without the toxic fumes and mess.
2. Pet stains went away completely making immediate machine cleaning unnecessary. I couldn't believe how well this works. While it may not be economical to use a 50/50 mixture on all my carpets, spotting with genesis 950 makes it economical to use virtually any cleaning solution.
3. Spot cleaning my outdoor furniture where my dogs jump after they have gotten muddy.
4. My stainless steal hood over my range. This gets gritty from grease and Genesis 950 really works better on this than stainless cleaner.
In general, I am sold on Genesis 950 and anyone with a pet needs to use it." - Tom

best all purpose cleaner"Your product is AMAZING!!! I bought a 1 gallon container and took it to my daughters house to help her clean her "room of shame". Dog stains everywhere and nicotine on the walls. Her kitchen was badly greased and nicotine on the white cupboards.

best all purpose cleaner"I have finally found my miracle! I have 7 dogs I have rescued throughout the past few years and the pet smell has been a huge issue. A couple of them have had accidents due to issues they have so the odor has been a battle. It was to the point that when we walked in the door there was NO doubt that we had pets.

 I was skeptical because I have tried soooooo many products that promised they could combat the odor. ummmm...Not so much. Genesis 950 delivered on what they said. After thoroughly shampooing my carpet with it, I can come into my house and would never know there were 7 dogs running around. THERE IS NO MORE ODOR! You have no idea how happy I am. I have gone through this for years. I wish I had found you sooner. I now feel comfortable laying down on my carpet to play with my pets and not wonder what I'm laying on. You have gained a loyal customer for life. I only ordered the gallon size just to see if it would work. My next purchase will be the 5 gallon. I am never going to be without it again.

Genesis 950 Car Cleaning - DIY Auto Carpet, Upholstery And Interior Detailing



DIY Car Detailing With Genesis 950


When it comes to DIY car detailing, Genesis 950 is the perfect cleaner for all aspects of cleaning when it comes to car care. Genesis 950 can clean leather and cloth upholstery, carpet, plastic, chrome and more. Genesis 950 is a surfactant based cleaner that works with water to break the bonds of stains and lift them from the surface they have adhered to. It does so without harming, discoloring or damaging the surface. 



Being a surfactant cleaner, Genesis 950 is to be used with water. The water will activate the solution so that it breaks down the structural bonds of stains. When this happens, the stain can be rinsed away. The general mixing ration for Genesis 950 is 1 part 950 to 7 parts water. However this concentration can be increased as high as a 50/50 mix if the stains prove to be difficult. 

Here is a cleaning example using Genesis 950 with directions as to how it was used and how much was used.

The Bissell Spotbot has a removable compartment which can be filled with water and cleaning solution. For cleaning the car interior, the container was filled at a 50/50 ratio of Genesis 950 and water. The machine also allows the mixture to be heated. We used the heater feature in our cleaning. When ready to clean, select Manual. This allows the machine to release water through the hose rather then through the bottom of the machine.

Remove Car Stains

In heavily stained areas, take advantage of the bristles on the attachment head and scrub to ensure the area becomes saturated so the Genesis 950 can break down stains deep within the carpet. Once you have shampooed the carpet, let it sit while you clean the rest of the interior.

Genesis 950 Auto Care

After you have cleaned the seats, dashboard and any other areas needing cleaning, return to the carpets. Now, using ONLY clean water in the machine, rinse the areas you have cleaned. This will allow all the dirt and stains that the Genesis 950 has broken down to be flushed clean from the area.

How To Clean Cat Vomit Stains From Upholstery



How To Remove Cat Puke From Furniture

Cats are prone to occasional instances of random vomiting. Whether it be from eating something random, cleaning themselves or an illness, cat puke is never pleasant to clean up. It appears in the most inconvenient places . . . on good carpets, in the middle of the room, or even on furniture. Usually by the time it is discovered, it has already dried up and if not properly treated, staining surface areas. 

For us, these types of stains are a double edge sword. We hate the mess, and hate having to clean it up, but it gives us the opportunity to show how great Genesis 950 is at removing these types of stains.

Cat Puke On Microfiber Couch
The stain in the photo above was discovered at the end of the night. One of the cats decided to puke on top of the microfiber couch as well as a blanket that was folded over the couch. This stain was already all dried up. If you own a cat, you know that the dried vomit is not easy to remove. 

remove cat vomit stains

To clean the stain, Genesis 950 was used. Because it is the best cleaner for multiple purposes, a spray bottle is kept under the kitchen sink for just these types of messes. The premixed bottle contains about 1/3 Genesis 950 and the remaining 2/3 water. Simply shake the bottle up a bit and spray on the stained area. 

Genesis 950 is not like any other cleaner. There are no harsh chemicals in the 950. It works with water to be absorbed by the stain. This alters the structure of the stain. As a result, the stain will break free from the surface it has adhered to. When the 950 is sprayed on the stain, the stain in turn breaks down and can then be removed. Because there are no harsh chemicals, it will not damage, alter, discolor or ruin your furniture and upholstery.

After the 950 and water mixture have broken down the stain it can be wiped clean. Here, a paper towel was used to wipe the area clean. There was no need to scrub, scrape or chisel at the stain, it simply wiped away.

Above the area has been cleaned. The entire process took about 1 - 2 minutes. Genesis 950 makes cleaning pet stains fast and easy. It can remove stains that contain dye from pet food, blood or bile.
In addition to cleaning vomit stains, Genesis 950 is also perfect for removing pet stains. It will not only remove the stain, but any odors associated with the stain. To make things even better, it is green! it is safe for you, your family and your pets.
