Pergo Foamstop De-Foaming Agent for SWM680 – 1 litre

Pergo Foamstop De-Foaming Agent is a silicone-based anti-foaming agent designed for the Pergo SWM680 grout cleaning machine, including the SWM680P Petrol Sponge Cleaner. It helps reduce substantial foam build-up and the scum that can collect in the dirty-water bucket as you clean up grout. It is not the anti-foaming product for the Raimondi Berta sponge machine. If you use a Berta, see our Raimondi anti-foaming liquid for the Berta sponge machine instead.

This listing is for the 1 litre bottle. We also offer a 500ml version. Add 10ml (one capful) for every 10 litres of clean water used with the Pergo machine. Measure the water rather than dosing by bucket size, as buckets vary. Foamstop helps with foam; it does not clean grout from paving or replace fresh water and regular machine care.

What it does

• Silicone-based de-foaming formula to help control substantial foam build-up.
• Helps keep scum down in the dirty-water bucket during grout cleaning.
• Designed for Pergo SWM680 grout cleaning machines, including the SWM680P Petrol Sponge Cleaner, not the Raimondi Berta.
• 1 litre bottle on this page; a 500ml version is also available.
• Dose at 10ml per 10 litres of clean water.

How to use Pergo Foamstop

Measure 10ml (one capful) of Foamstop for every 10 litres of clean water used with your Pergo grout cleaning machine. Follow the machine’s normal operating instructions, change the wash water regularly and clean the machine after use. If you are unsure about your setup, ask us before you start.

Pergo Foamstop De-Foaming Agent FAQs

1. What is Pergo Foamstop De-Foaming Agent used for?

Pergo Foamstop is designed to help reduce and prevent foam build-up when using a Pergo power grout sponge machine. If you’re using your SWM680P Petrol Sponge Cleaner, it can help keep foam under control in the water bucket, making your grout-cleaning process that little bit easier.

2. Can I use Pergo Foamstop with my SWM680P Petrol Sponge Cleaner?

Yes. Pergo Foamstop is suitable for the SWM680P and designed for the Pergo SWM680 grout cleaning machine family. It’s a handy addition to your kit, particularly when you’re working on larger paving projects and want to keep foam build-up to a minimum. For a Raimondi Berta sponge machine, choose the Raimondi Berta anti-foaming product instead.

3. How much Foamstop should I use per bucket of water?

Measure 10ml (one capful) of Pergo Foamstop for every 10 litres of clean water. Don’t assume that every bucket holds 10 litres: dose according to the amount of water you’re actually using. Follow the product and machine instructions.

4. Why does foam build up when using my SWM680P?

Foam can build up in the wash water as your SWM680P sponge belt cleans away excess grout and cement residue. It’s a normal part of the cleaning process, but too much foam can become a nuisance. Changing the water regularly and adding Foamstop at the stated dose when needed can help keep things under control.

5. Do I still need to change the water when using Foamstop?

Yes, absolutely. Foamstop helps reduce foam, but it’s still important to change the water frequently while you’re working. We also recommend keeping a second container of clean water ready, so you can change it quickly and keep your job moving.

6. Does Foamstop remove grout or cement residue from paving?

No. Foamstop is designed to tackle foam, rather than remove grout itself. It’s the continuous sponge belt on your SWM680P that does the work of cleaning excess grout and cement residue from paving, helping you leave a neat finish and uniform, compacted joints.

7. Is Foamstop useful for large paving and landscaping projects?

Yes. If you’re using your SWM680P on a large patio, commercial paving scheme, granite setts or external landscaping project, keeping your wash water under control can make the cleaning process more manageable. Foamstop is a useful extra to have on hand when you’re working through a busy day on site.

8. How much Foamstop comes in a bottle?

This listing is for a 1 litre bottle of Pergo Foamstop De-Foaming Agent. We also offer a 500ml version. At 10ml per 10 litres of clean water, how long a bottle lasts depends on the amount of water you use and how often you change it.

9. Can I use Foamstop instead of cleaning and maintaining my SWM680P?

No. Foamstop helps manage foam, but it doesn’t replace regular machine maintenance. Change the water frequently, never run the sponge belt dry and give your SWM680P a thorough clean after use. A little care goes a long way in keeping your equipment ready for the next job.
