Title: Power Burst in Injection Sprayer
Post by: The Carpet Cleaning Pro on January 12, 2011, 07:30:06 pm
Can't seem to do the maths... been a long day.
I have been reading about mixing Power Burst :

 For injection sprayer, mix 45ml (3 measure scoops) of S789 per litre of hot water in the sprayer container. My new injection sprayer mixes at 4,8,16,32 and 64:1, so how many scoops of powder and at what mixing ratio?

Im pretty sure thats based on 8-1 at 3 scoops / litre.

Thanks for your help. Just been on Prochem website and the injection sprayer they sell is a 1:9 so perhaps it is based on that?

3 scoops per litre for hydraforce, 1 scoop per litre for direct pre spray.

45ml per litre is 22.2 to 1.    1000 divided by 45.

2 ph is 100 times more than 1 ph so how can what you said be correct

First of all I'd ditch the variable dilution hydroforce because the mechanism is so primitive you haven't got a clue what ratio it's actually diluting at ;)

I put 12 heaped scoops in a 4 litre container, which I think is about standard.

I have never been able to work out why they recommend different dilution rates for pressure spray/hydroforce ???

Recommended dilution works out at 3 scoops per litre in a hydroforce container.  That mix is then further diluted at 1:9, so it works out you have got 1 scoop in every 27 litres of solution that comes out.

So why does it need to be 27 times stronger from a pressure sprayer? ??? ???

All I can say is that when I use it, it does the job :)

Monty

I put three scoops paul moss style, always test when more than one colour. but what i have been doing is adding two oxibrite as well. you need to boil kettel to activate it and its been fantastic.

did a job yesterday with dog mess all over came out easy and carpet looked new. surprised myself.  ;D

Adding the oxybrite to power burst is amazing for presraying polyprop carpets. Been doing this for a while now with amazing results

Yes, how much oxybrite do you mix with PB and what's the result, brighter carpets?
