Think you can use F90 as a pre spray dilute 1 scoop to 1 litre, and in tank cleaner instructions on tub think its 1 scoop to 5 litres or 1 to 10 litres.

Hope this helps.

I'm using f90 as a pre spray ATM it's one of my favourite products and it encapsulates, I've got a garage full of chem from restormate I think John will think I've got another supplier but f90 is suiting most of my cleaning needs.

Do you just extract using clean water ? I tried it today using a separate pre spray then f90 in the extraction and must say I'm impressed .

What he said.

Plus I use it 99% intake too when pre-spraying with power burst or enzall. Its a fantastic combination on mingers. Wont dot he carpets any harm.

 The powder and the liquid seem to have little in common but the name ...
 but its all detergent ... used the liquid lately as its stocked local
 seems to work fine ...  sometimes adding  'Energizer ',  sodium percarbonate .

Would sodium percarbonate be safe in a pump up sprayer?

Good idea..I have some sodium percarbonate but am nervous it may damage my pump up sprayer as it releases oxygen
