Kitty” impurities in polyester–cotton (PC) fabrics are difficult contaminants that often resist conventional scouring, leading to uneven dyeing, patchy shades, and higher reprocessing costs. The Starco Kitty Removal Process uses a balanced combination of Starcoscour LWA, Starcoscour PSW, hydrogen peroxide, and caustic flakes to ensure effective impurity removal. This process delivers deep and uniform cleaning without damaging the fabric structure. As a result, processors achieve brighter fabric surfaces, improved dye penetration, and better finishing quality. It also helps reduce reprocessing while improving overall production efficiency and customer satisfaction.
