Title: zerodryingtimes
Post by: COLIN BRIGHT on March 30, 2014, 08:03:14 pm: Anyone know these guys, just noticed an ad in local mag? what do you think about theses claims?

Zero Dry Time permanently removes deep down soil, cleaning your carpets deeper and more thoroughly than any other carpet cleaning product on the planet. What’s more your carpet is left DRY and Ready To Use Immediately, without removing valuable carpet stain resistant materials.

If it were true then we would all be doing it!

Also somewhere on my phone I have a good example photo of where these type guys dry cleaned a carpet and the stains came right back after a few weeks and the customer paid £650 to have it done. Their not in Stoke are they?

Zero Dry Time permanently removes deep down soil,

Unlike me who only 'temporally' removes the soil, I sneak back a week later and put it all back ;D ;D

Post by: Simon Gerrard on March 31, 2014, 07:51:29 am: So if it's encap, how can it be zero drying time?
Watched a video on YouTube and they say they are using Surround Free with oxi powered All Bright.

Title: Re: zerodryingtimes
Post by: Simon Gerrard on March 31, 2014, 04:52:42 pm: All the same, they are still using water and leaving the carpet to some degree or other damp, which isn't zero drying time.

Post by: stuart_clark on March 31, 2014, 05:33:57 pm: I diddn't say it was simon but in my experience certain encap products used a certain way does dry much quicker but yes it aint dry as we know it is it ? Certainly not like host or similar product
Title: Re: zerodryingtimes
Post by: Simon Gerrard on March 31, 2014, 05:59:13 pm: Which much leave them with an issue with the customer given what zero drying time implies. ;D ;D
Title: Re: zerodryingtimes
Post by: dan paton on March 31, 2014, 06:08:14 pm: They use the host system . They do also use rotary's with surround .We could pick holes in anyone's marketing but when push comes to shove it must work because like someone said above I read on here before(I think from John Kelly) that they where very successful.
ps.... I'm nothing to do with zero dry time :)

Title: Re: zerodryingtimes
Post by: jim mca on March 31, 2014, 08:00:07 pm: They were the original importer of surround which John has now taken over they might be the guys behind dynamal

Post by: Phil @ Extreme Clean on March 31, 2014, 08:37:57 pm: Colin it's A franchise using Host. Personally i don't think you should worry being TM i know the local rag you mean cause i'm in also. No doubt his phone will be going mental all these promises and free hall and stairs with main room clean leave him too it mate your kit sells itself there's no comparison. :)
